Ride Story:
Left our house with illusive and my farther (hornetboy cnr) picked up blue eyed savage ,then off to the para's(which were in very good shape i must say ,saw some very nice cbr's and gsxr's along the way who were getting their knee down , had a couple of fish tailing along the para's and my farther on his hornet got a bit carried away and nearly crashed after passing a car and coming up to a bend that was steeper than he'd thought,but he was lucky enough to maneuver himself out of it :shit: stopped in ratahi and went to clowns cafe (bloody brilliant pies and chips lol) then petrol stop in oakune ,then went just out of oakune and turned off on a back road (which was bloody awsome,got my knee down on it ) then yea back down the para's where me and illusive rode with a very fast driving holden clubsport 702 ..which was very fast,but as always two wheels came out the winner :shifty: .( then illusive invited us over to his house were we meet miss menace lol and had some drinks (what a great way to end a day of riding) and did a little kai iwi back roads and then went home .:done:

[HornetBoy]

Picture 1: HornetBoy CNR telling the story of his near death experience (he'd knocked over a roadside reflector thing going wide on a corner lol ,no damage thankfully)

Picture 2:Lets Eat!! after the para's we were bloody hungry and what better place to get a feed than clowns:bleh:

Picture 3:Quick stop for all but me for petrol (ive got a really big tank),and takeing in some great mountain views.
