How was the ride? I went there last week for the first time (cage-bound) and loved it, plenty of nice fast sweepers before Little River and the excellent uphill twisties afterwards to Akaroa.
It's a classic ride, but I'll bet a few riders come unstuck on it...

It is a nice ride. But there are a few problems:

1. The nice sweepers you mention are hardly entertaining at legal speeds and that stretch of road has the attention of the police.

2. During the weekends, unless you leave before 7:30, you get caught up in a convoy of boaties, trucks and fuckwits when you hit the hills. This tends to spoil part of the fun...

Also, there seems to always be some sort of road work going on along there somewhere. A nice alternative that most people don't use is the Summit road from Hilltop Cafe - fun at legal speeds, but you have to stay aware of sheep, grit and unmarked corners...

Jeff you slack bum, you should have been at the rally with your brothers.

I even won $200 and a trophy for best honda in show.

Fuclkin imagine that!

[JWALKER]

haha that is funny to imagine, so i gues you will be shouting a round of beers at the pub then LLAMA?.

it was a really good ride, 5 of us turned up on bikes. a ducati, el stevo, kawa4 and another guy, not sure what he was riding.
apart from the roadworks managed to set a nice pace on the way back, seen i was not two up

[The Lone Rider]

i thoughts you be tyed down with kylie and her cousin. Thats what you told me.

No drink shouts for me man, I stopped at the clock tower on the way home from the rally and showed glynn and a few others the trophy and had way to many shouts. Couldn't walk home, and as you know had to scramble to get someone to help me get home.

Whoooaa, never realized how many fucking skanks there are there either! Far out man!

:sick: I don't think my body has quite decided if it wants to vomit yet or leave me stewing for awhile

The other guy was MartinRZ on a RZ350, don't know if hes on this forum, maybe he's a lurker...:shifty:

Come forth and show yourself MartinRZ... if that really is your name :cool:

[JWALKER]

[JWALKER]

tony, you do know how to have a good time.

we were busy, we went for the ride on saturday at about lunchtime and didn't get back till about 4.30pm, was a awesome ride

[The Lone Rider]

I'm still sobering up!

And doesn't help I've caught the flu so no more kissing my ass :P

We will be meeting around 8pm - same bat channel same bat place. They even got our A4 flyers hanging up at the main doors now. Let me know if you will come, I will bring your patch. I'll need all the biker muscle I can get that day as it's ladies night and today I pissed off one of the skanks I met there on Saturday lol.

No, I didn't get with one either so don't even say it!
