Any Manawatu 250 riders?

[STUPY]

H Guys and Girls

Just wondering how many 250 riders are in the area?? As we could all get together and go on criuses. with all of us being 250 then the likely hood of anyone getting lost and left out of the pack is unlikely. let me know if it sounds like you :scooter:

[Storm]

I've got a 350 single, so you're probably faster than me. Give us a PM when you're keen on a ride.:D

[Kane-]

I would be keen :yes:

[oscarnz]

I would be keen, fingers crossed my bike will be finally ready this week.

[illusivemenace]

im in wangas but am always keen for a blast and know some pretty cool back roads over these ways

[STUPY]

if any of you are keen for a ride at anytime just P.M me:yes:

[Monamie]

Oh Stupy....I would love to go riding with you:love::sweatdrop...anytime.

On a serious note...it would be great to get a bunch of like `powered' bikes out together.:yes:

Dont limit yourself to 250cc rides mate :yes: as their aren't many sole 250cc rides but alot of mixed capacity rides in the manawatu .

yeah I've been on one group ride so far. I was a bit slow being new at riding and all that. :) And ended up tailing the group of big bikes :) Next time a group ride is on I might give it a reattempt (adding 1000km to my belt definately helped the confidence hehe)

Dj you did fine on the group ride you came on, the friday nite cruises are good as well .. a wee flick close to palmy & do not forget some of the experienced riders are more than happy to give you some pointers ..

Cowboyz has excellent advice to offer & has helped my cornering immensely, almost ready for a rerun to see if there are any improvements

[chanceyy]

Stupy I have a 350 but would be happy to come out & join you all .. have only been riding since feb .. OMG 10 months go so fast .. have mostly done my riding with the Ashhurst/palmy crew & its been good to have that experience ...

actually I might have to organise another cruisy ride soon, this is catered for all riders & esp newbie riders or those who wanna come outta the woodwork,

hmm thinking hat on again .. & a destination .. ok will contemplate it on my way home tomorrow ..

[DJ]

really? oooh I felt kinda bad I thought I was holding people up.:Oops: :) My cornering has improved heaps...and general speed since then. :) When's the next suitable out of town ride happening? The more rides the better I say :) The friday nights rides are kinda tough to get to for me.. bad night in general. :(

thats wot group riding is all about Dj .. ride your own ride, we will wait .. & every day you ride your riding improves I know mine has .. but also getting mentoring from those more experienced riders help immensely

I will organise a ride shortly so keep a eye out :yes:

[STUPY]

we be keen for you to jump in, i think i say this for all "as many rides as we can get on makes us stronger" so hell yeah let me know what your thinking cap says???:whistle:

would hate to think that people are avoiding us cause they think that they are holding some riders up! Honestly. When it might look like we are stopping to wait for someone, truth is that we would have stopped for a smoke/coffee/latte/camera shoot/to talk shit/all of the above anyway. The bigger bikes can get some pace on at times but we do not mind waiting at the stops. If you are late to a stop and feel you havent had a long enough stop and people look like they are starting to leave then offer 86 a latte or ask Yod how his days going and that will guarentee you another 10-55mins...............

Maybe Wed would be a good day, hangovers will/should be gone by then :whistle:

[Sir Matt]

Theres nothing like cruising in a group. Sorry i'll have to miss the first ride up but would be keen to jump in the next. Either send us a PM or post it on the calender.

Hopefully catch you guys and gals soon.

it pays to keep an eye on the manawatu rides thread cause every now and then someone accidently posts a ride in there.

[Sir Matt]

Cool as. Will see you guys on the next ride then.

[Sir Matt]

There will be a ride on Saturday. Heading down Masterton way for a coffee and some food. If your keen for a bit of a blow out add your name.
