Cape Reinga Ride Report and Photos

[ital916]

Hey guys and gals!

The easter ride has just touched down in auckland and I wanna write up my little bit of what we did and the stuff I learned before the others tarnish my image with all the stupid things that happened lol. Man what can I say it was an intense ride *well for me anyway* and we must have seen some of the most beautiful parts of the country. Cape reinga was gorgeous. The first day, I was kinda nervous meeting the other riders for the first time but after a few minutes we were all having a laugh and after waiting for the last people to arrive headed off. First thing we hit was fog. I had to ride with visor up the whole time lol, "Hey dushy, you have ice on your eyebrows" :cool:. The ride up to kaitai was awesome. Passing through welsford and further up through the twisties. The countries biggest tree was nice, but the twisties that followed we awesome. Just riding in a group and chewing up the ks was fantastic. Confidence was building by then and the group had a awesome rythm. The stay in kaitaia was wicked with the brews and laughs coming strong. Suffice to say there were some hilarious sleeping habits of some kiwibikers haha.

The next day we headed up to the cape, with the nice paved roads leading there being awesome! The gravel on the other hand hated. First time ever on heavy metal roads and I was struggling but it was worth it. Cape reinga has to be one of the nicest spots I had been too. On the way back I unfortunately dropped the RG as I got too close to the left side of the road and the gravel bank shifted, no worries. Picked her up, kicked her in the guts and continued. :banana:

The ride to whangarei was fun up until again you guessed it gravel! We did some major adventure riding *well for me anyway* on the ride, the road conditions were sometimes shocking *but still bloody good fun* with the front and rear bouncing everywhere. We hit gravel for the second time and again I dropped the rg *almost stationary again* as I got nervous over-corrected and flipped her. No worries, picked her up and kicked her in the guts again and RING-A-DING she went. Isaac rode her through the gravel for me as I got a ride with a truckie haha *shame*, but later that day we hit gravel again and I started getting the hang of it. The ride to whangarei as dramatic as it was was fantastic. Nice sweepers and the mentality of riding in a group is addictive.

The last days ride was nice and fast with the twisties coming hard and fast. I'm starting to get more confident in cornering although when the front and rear bounce and skittle it still scares me lol. We were making great progress until I had quite possible the scariest motorcycling moment ever. Cranking around a corner at 120, I was confident until the front tire blew and completely came of the rim at one point. Ensuing tank slapper was scary, followed byt the fact that I was heading towards a railway line with no front brake with a stop sign. I basically flew over the lines tank slapping, with the rim banging down on the other side. I managed to control her though and slowed enough to use the rear brake and skidded to a halt. :niceone: Well I'm back now and what can I say, thank you to all the guys who came. I made some awesome friends, had a blast. We rode through some tough shit, stuck to it and came out with a great experience. People rode into birds, pieces of wood, animals etc. I learnt to not fear the gravel *I'm working on it* and well I just had a blast. Thanks agin to toto for organising it and the other riders. Kepp in touch eh and feel free to add your thoughts and experiences guys to this thread. Photos will follow! Post all your photos here if you want, nice and orderly to have one place for them.

Peace everyone

Drider

P.S getting towed the last 90k to auckland sucks lol almost made it, stupid tire haha

[tri boy]

Great pic's people. Looks like you had an awesome time. What it's all about.:scooter:

[Macstar]

Hey all

I didn't bring a camera, but I thought I'd add my two cents on the trip as well. First up, thanks also to the ride organisers and the people that came. I've been on a few tours before, but this was by far the best one I've done - partly because of the weather, the scenary and the roads, but mostly because of the people!

Riders/ppl:

There were some real 'hard case ppl' on the ride and a good mixture of nationalities, ages and riding experience levels. In particular, I gotta mention 'ol Pocket cracker - he kept the weekend alive with his tales and jokes. There was also a strong Irish contingent on the ride that ensured a healthy dose of beers, fags and yarns occured. As with most KB events / motorcyclists though, there weren't any egos and no Shortland St drama etc - just good times.

Roads:

Roads were great, traffic was never really an issue - though on our exit and re-entry into Dorkland we heard of 3 bike accidents (I need to browse KB for some more info on these). Sitting at Wellsford Caltex re-fuelling there must have been 40 bikes lingering around! Anyway, back to the roads - usual NZ stuff really, cattle running loose, cow shit everywhere, a puppy in the middle of the road, some munter drifting on gravel, oncoming cars crossing the centre line on corners, cage-accidents, potholes, non-signed gravel patches, apple-sized gravel dropped on a hard surface etc etc. The good far outweighed the bad though, and without a doubt there were some fantastic stretches of highway!

Riders / Riding:

As far as group rides go, I think this one on the whole was well planned with plenty of rest stops and relatively well behaved. I was amazed to see the skill levels of the learner / resitricted riders shoot up so quick over the 3 days - if only I could improve at a similar rate to you guys! The gravel was about as bad as it gets and only claimed the Dushmeister - so well done to everyone who made it through it (I was shitting myself too on my new Hornet...!).

Accommodation:

The Whangarei mental asylum / horror house was fucken weird as to the nutty host. Fortunately, we all woke the next morning alive i.e. were not snuffed out in our sleep by the crazy owner...

Funny Shit:

*The resilient Pocket Cracker and his interesting female conversing techniques, and the yet-to-be-seen 1,2,3rd gear mono!!!
*The special care I received several times from not-so-pretty Northland waitresses
*'Claus the lumberjack Toto' - shamelessly wearing his fluro t-shirt, red stubbies and motorcycle boots around the streets of kaitia and Whangerai!
*Dushmeister getting all the bad luck of the trip and brushing his teeth with a toothbrush that had been soaked in split 2 stroke engine oil
*Sinsiter doing a burnout in the Cape Reinga car park and popping his chain - then taking 20 minutes to put it back on again
*The evening musical performance of a certain GN owner from his ass (apparently all night long!!)

Plenty more laughs - but my brain just died.

BTW: 1100km from Westgate to Cape Reinga and back to Mt Eden. And it took me 4 hours to give my bike a full detail from top to bottom, oil change, chain clean and lube and remove pack rack etc. She's ready for tomorrow's ride (apart from the fully worn rear tyre).

Anyway, thanks again fellas! I'm looking forward to the next one.

I haven't started on that yet... might need to give her an oil change after thrashing her for three days in a row, the oil was looking awfully dark. Any advice?

:rofl: wasn't me! it was the other one :laugh:
I just muttered to myself all night long apparently :blink:

Was a good ride. Rode to Whangarei and then had to turn back to Auckland as I had a meeting with someone to pick up some new tyres for the blade. Had alot of unexpected chores too which I had to get it done by the end of holiday.

Well my fairings are in mint condition and at at least I made it half way. But I know from the earlier threadpost that you were scared to damage your fairings so I guess we all know who is the pussy fella here. Ewen bikes are made to be ridden and not to be left in the shed. :shifty:

So you left us at Dargaville and went to whangarei ? interesting...

You should have stuck with us to "big ass tree" instead of going to whangarei.

You missed mean twisties.

Well I was in a hurry to get back to Auckland and so my pace was fast all the way back with the others. Looking at the photos I know I missed the fun but new tyres for the Fireblade? Had to choose the tyres. I dont think my front tyre was up to for the twisties.

But once again it was a fantastic ride. Real nice people and great roads. :niceone:

Very keen to ride with any and all of the bunch any time drop me a txt , Pocketcracker ,*kyle* 021 211 65 74 ,,

Ps, YES PLEASE !!

[Squiggles]

It was one of the new ones that buggered up, i changed them a couple days before the ride.

really, fark. They were new too, try and find out where they came from (ta see if you can get em replaced), sounded like a major blowout

[ital916]

I have heaps of photos fellas, my comp is fucking killing me by crashing everytime i add them. I have heaps from the cape and lots of group photos! So if you fellas want them I can burn a cd of them for you or you can wait till my comp decides to not crash. Oi choco where's me on the trike bro, I got knee down on that little baby. Yeah my bike is nutted, had to roll he into the garage on the rim and it cost me more than 300 bucks to get her towed to auck fucking lunacy, supposedly AA only tows you to nearest safety, AA+ tows you wherever. The hyo rider who crashed lost one leg, he went through a guardrail, a sign, and four fences or something.

[Squiggles]

supposedly AA only tows you to nearest safety, AA+ tows you wherever.

Yer, it's only a tiny bit more to get plus

[Wiki Drifter]

Damn wish I was there.... oh wait I was! Except I was trapped in bloody tour bus going in the opposite direction.

Saw a whole bunch of bikes coming in the opposite direction and guessed it was the KB ride, which I was originally supposed to be part of. :argh:

Sorry about the picture quality, twas hard to take photos of fast bikes in a shaky bus. I missed out about half the bikes going past.

[Wiki Drifter]

Actually I think I missed most of the convoy.

[Wiki Drifter]

pictures were taken on the gravel road leading to Cape Reinga, small world :clap:

[sinister^]

Yeah thats us Wiki Drifter, small world eh.

What did you think of the blue FXR150?

[ital916]

Once my bike is running, I would love to get some more gravel practice in, I don't wanna get beaten by some rocks. I think I went to slow on it aye and that why I had difficulty.

[glice]

and I would be keen for a cd of the photos dushy and anyone else who has photos too.

I like the helmet pics lol

you started the trend EJ. the helmet pics are a tribute to you brother.

[EJK]

Haha thanks.

Brilliant! Choc Wheels made a land speed record on his GN :lol:
The pics are great, Just great :D

Btw, so you guys did see my name on the guest book :lol:



P.S. I too like to go on a tour when my bike gets fixed :)

[TOTO]

Yes , I was measuring his speed behind him withowt him knowing it, 132km/h recorded speed.

Saw your name in the Guestbook. I put mine too.

when is your bike getting fixed ?

[Choco]

Oi choco where's me on the trike bro, I got knee down on that little baby.
I'm trying to find the photo, but I can only find the ones with Toto :confused:
I'll keep looking

[Choco]

Damn wish I was there.... oh wait I was! Except I was trapped in bloody tour bus going in the opposite direction.

Damn it's a small world! Some cool photos there mate. Pity you missed the Ginny's... must've been doing warp 9 past ya :laugh:


Once my bike is running, I would love to get some more gravel practice in, I don't wanna get beaten by some rocks. I think I went to slow on it aye and that why I had difficulty.

Yeah mate, that's the trick. If you get your speed up a bit you tend to skip over the rough stuff, then just loosen up and go with the flow. You were doing pretty well on the gravel by the end of the last day. A vast improvement from your run to the cape, that was just scary to watch :shit:
And you did bloody well to hold it together with your blowout mate, at least it happened out the back of a corner and not through the twisties!

I think i've got a photo of you knee-down on the trike. Will find it once i get to sorting out photo's and stuff. Washing takes priority tho :yes:
Get her fixed and get back out there! :niceone:

[Just beGiNing 250]

Hey Lads,
got some pictures here finally. Fantastic Weekend! It was great to ride with you all.

Good job toto the weekend went without a hitch, exactly as you planned :woohoo: thanks

PocketCracker - no gloves LOL but cool as usual :cool:

Good stuff.

Damn that was a big tree ay.

I think the aerodynamic photos look mean! If I was actually going faster then 100km/hr no one would make fun of it :laugh:.

What did you think of the blue FXR150?

Nice, were you carrying a disproportionally large back pack?


Pity you missed the Ginny's... must've been doing warp 9 past ya :laugh:

Yip, too fast for the camera. Those floral vests work really well:clap:

[Japtwin]

Nice one, sounds like you had heaps of fun, adventures and BIG ups for not ditching on the tyre blowout, scary! go you.

[Badger8]

Nice, were you carrying a disproportionally large back pack?

Yeah, that was him. Was funny watching a backpack with legs and a helmet riding around :D
Where you perchance on the bus that he had a big tank slapper right in front of on the gravel? :lol:

I meant to ask you sinister, where did your backpack go? i'm sure i saw you riding without it on the last day...


Yip, too fast for the camera. Those floral vests work really well:clap:

Gotta love the hi-vis superman cape :laugh:

[TOTO]

Just prey for a good weather.

[gijoe1313]

Well reading this thread was most excellent! Turns out I could have made this ride ... but I ended up going to Hamitron with Donor to go to Quasi's on Friday.

Bought some kevlar jeans and ... rode to Wellington ... had dinner there and watched Canterbury burn the Waratahs in the Hog's Breath cafe, texted Colapop and the Kendogs.

Turns out Colapop was in Tauranga visiting DMNTD! :doh:

So he invites me to ride that way! Being the pootler I am, who was I to stop my nature! So around 4am I get to Tauranga, talk to him and Unit till 6am and I grab a couple of hours sleep.

Go out for a little ride around to Waihi and then back to Tauranga and then back home! Think I must have been practising for the 1000 mile challenge ... 1800km in less than two days :woohoo:

I should have kept riding back up to Cape Reinga and see if I could find those gloves left behind! :innocent:

:niceone: Good work guys, and oh yeah, you can ride to Cape Reinga and back in one day :msn-wink: So next time I will see if I can catch up! :innocent:

You're coming with us next time EJ; even if I have to pillion you the whole way!!!

[sinister^]

I meant to ask you sinister, where did your backpack go? i'm sure i saw you riding without it on the last day...


I left it at my holiday home at Mangawhai, how long were you guys waiting at Wellsford for me (if you were waiting).

[Nagash]

Alright, this is my ride report from what i remember.


Day 1

Woke up first thing Friday morning and boosted it down to Westgate Shell station. Already 4 or 5 people there and I thought I was early, as time went on the 4 or 5 grew into 20 people!

Give briefing over giving the basics and off we went.. into bloody heavy fog. Literally could not see 4 metres infront of you, Steven (seamus) mentioning he had a bloody great caravan, somewhere, infront of him. This fog was awful, rode visor up and evnetually glasses up too. Came out of it absolutely soaked to the core. I think Rory mentioned he was about ready to turn around while in that fog, and fair enough. Wa sa bitch. But we made it!

Went through a few nice twisties and met up with Luke (Sinister ((Apt. Name)). Jacko chatted to a few of the locals and off we shot again. After that we had a few nice twisties up to Dargaville, Isaac lost his license plate on the way and had to pull over to re-attach it.. Leading in one of them missing one of the turn offs. (Memories a bit fuzzy here) 'Someone' went to catch up to him and he thought it was a race.. Leaving Steven standing at another one of the turn off points for a good 20 minutes.

Fuelled up at Subway where the majority of photos seems to of been taken, and already Douschebag (Drider) was tightning up his bike at fear it was about to fall to pieces. And I think it was somewhere about here that the legendary 'bit of wood' was come across. The most over exxagerated thing i've ever seen.. it was maybe 20 cm's long and about 15 cm's wide. It was tiny.. wee bit thick and right in the middle of the road on a one way bridge. One or two people hit it without incident.

After Dargaville we headed to the forest.. my god.. B-E-A-utiful. Tight, slow twisties weaving in and out from the trees, dodging stray campervans and passing traffic and some dodgey oppourtunities (Or was that just me?). Came round a bend to see a whole line of cars and buses thinking there was some sort of accident ahead but it was just some big tree.. had a smoke and a few leaks and off we shot again. Down even better twisties! Huge corners and massive sweeping cambers going up and down and left and right, just like a roller coaster ride. Going round some of those corners in the high 90's feeling the force of the huge cambers keeping yo uon the road was amazing.

Stopped at the top with Kyle (Pocketcracker) showing us how wheelies were neither big nor clever, but fairly impressive. Got a few waves from the ladies driving past aswell, always a laugh.

After that I don't think there were any more major incidents on the way to Kaitaia, I hit a Sparrow, Tod hit an Eagle (endangered species) and it was a laugh to see Steven ducking in and out of butterflies.

When in Kaitaia the backpackers was amazing, well recommended. Let us all park in their Marae! I'm sure someone was offended.. but the Maori gods kept our bikes safe. We then went on a hunt to find anywhere that offered beer on good friday, second we stepped outside Steven smelt the hops in the air and headed staight over the rode to a pub that would sell us beer if we bought food. (1 plate of wedges, 3 or 4 beers. Sounds good) Talk of burning down the establishment to get us more beer were discussed..

Day 2
Right so, day 2. Up to the Cape! Starting off having breakfast in a cafe, Kyle chatting up the waitress but only gettign as far as finding out her name.. Shanelle was it?? Brian (JustBeginning) enjoyed his Tea and toast.. Back to the ride.

Nice road heading out to the Cape, quite straight but you could see all up the road so some of us were having a bit of a muck around on the opposite side of the road and going round corners using the entire width of the road. Kept things interesting. Kyle was busting a nut being TEC on such straight roads with the GN's maxxing it at 120 but it keeps him legal.. We re-grouped at Waitaki Landing to see some bastard kid getting taken down by a sheep. That was fucking awsome.

Then off we went, hit the gravel bits and at first it weren't all that bad, pretty small gravel and some patches of solid mud made riding pretty easy. Then there was a sign on the side "Lime Wash - Due to Lime Splashes please wash your vehicle today". And this lime was.. bloody horrible. The gravel was literally the size of golf balls! It was insane, we all went through it at about 30-40. My handle bars locked over to the left once creating my first "Oh Shit" moment on the road but I kept it upright. I thought was doing alright until I saw Mark (Chocolatewheels) rip it past me with ease. Not even breaking a sweat. Bastard... At long last I made it to the top and took a good rest. One by one everyone turned up.. cept Douschebag.. We waited a good 20 minutes, probably more until we finally saw him round a bend with Kyle following him. Cheers all round and we had all made it.

Then came trying to get to the Lighthouse.. we had heard that GIJoe took his bike there so we thought we could do the same, cept there had been loads of construction and the car park had been pushed 500m's back or so. Luke went straight to it with Tod ripping down safety barriers and riding straight up only to turn around a few minutes later discovering it was a dead end.. Too many people to ride on the footpath so we decided to walk. And man was it a hot walk.. Atleast Kyle made an effort to point out every hot chick on the way down.

Took a few photos, chatted up a few girls and then back to the bikes we went. The route back, I decided to go down first with Steven behind me, the pace was alot faster on the way down with everyone's confidence on gravel increased greatly and I went from first down to maybe 4 or 5th. We had a long wait at Waitiki Landing in which I heard that Luke had lost his chain doing a burn out and that Dousche had bailed.. We all knew it would happen I think, just a question of when. He was still in high spirits and no damage worth mentioning though I reckon Kyle had a good bit of fun rubbing every inch of it in his face. Something about if you drive on the right hand side of the road you have no right to complain about those bloody buses not moving out your way... Anyway, all good and fun and everyone made it with beaming smiles. And we met up with a CBR 600 and a brand new Ninja 250 and had a chat with them, Mark having his proudest moment of the day by passing the 600 down the gravel.

Off we went, down to the Twin Bridges. A supposedly amazing road full of high speed twisties and beautiful sites. And it was, potentially on eof my favourite bits of road of the ride until we hit heavy gravel... just like the lime on the Cape. The front 5 of us slowly negotiated our way through it, I was at the back. Had a car behind us, some Maori guy doing wheel spins and donuts right behind me having a great ol' time on the gravel. Now, not many people on the ride actually noticed but I bailed on this bit of gravel.. got flicked by some rocks by the cager and lost my concentration. Bike did a full 180 and I was down on the ground. Frodo (Glice) turned back to help me up. No damage to me or the bike.. just a bit of a bent clutch handle, no big deal. Maori guy just drove on stopping to mention how awsome me bailing was.. Dick.

This was right at the end of the gravel so we all met up on one of the twin bridges and waited for the rest, and waited.. and waited some more..

Started to get somewhat worried so we asked a passing by cager what was up, apparently Dousche had bailed again! He mentioned he was alright and that he had driven Isaac back to Dousche's bike so he road it back and gave Dousche a ride so we were happy. Good man he was. They finally came round and off we went again, stuck behind an unmarked cop car for a fair distance. Then back to open road so we got into a nice little flow, atleast Frodo, Steven and I did. Passing each other at times and really ripping it round. Got to a tight corner that went up hill, down down hill just at the bend so you couldn't actually see how tight it was, I had to slap on the anchors to get around it and Frodo managed to shoot straight off the edge! Slowed down in a very handy gravel car park and made it round no problem. At this point, Kyle and Luke had shot on ahead of us as we had waited at twin bridges and as we rounded a corner there they were, apparently had been waiting for us for 45 minutes and decided to come look for us. Glad to know they care. We all rolled into Whangerai into the creepiest backpackers I have ever seen.. the owner threatened to murder a few people, Isaac got told to fuck off back to Auckland, and I swear when he offered us to go take a shower it was as innocent as he was suggesting.. Ontop of describing the species of his cat in great detail and playing creepy music on his organ at 7 in the morning, I don't think i'll ever be going there again.

Most of us went into the Whangarai township for a few drinks, got completely lost and all split up so we went into our two seperate groups. One group (the 3 Irish boys, Isaac, Tod, Frodo, myself and a couple of others) got lost and just stopped at the first Irish pub we saw. Had a few drinks, Kyle turned up and then the fun began. Those bunnies were nice to look at.. And the girl in the white dress! What an angel. The prosty got rejected which was a bit of a laugh to.. Not gonna go into too much detail what happened that night. But it wasn't anything too bad, though the Irish boys went to a Western bar to drink some more.. and didn't speak much of what they got up to so god knows. What happens on tour stays on tour I s'pose..

Day 3 on the next post..

[Badger8]

I left it at my holiday home at Mangawhai, how long were you guys waiting at Wellsford for me (if you were waiting).

ah, ok, sweet as. Saw you blast past without it at one stage and was like huh? Hope he didnt leave that behind at the gassie or somethin! :shifty:

[Nagash]

Day 3

Coming soon..

Oh, I was gonna stop for a coffee but I just remembered.. Day 3 was fairly uneventful for me. Only read this bit if you're REALLY bored..


Day 3 we all woke up, went into Whangarai again and stopped at a nice wee cafe, and got our breakfast. Parked all our bikes very impressive looking right next to it on some sort of garden feature. A little kid and his Milf, err.. I mean Mum had a little play around on Frodo's Suzy and tod's Hyo-bag. And some of the boys had a play around on the kid's Trike.. We never got the photo but a suggestion of the lying the Trike on it's side and putting Dousche bailed next to it was suggested, brilliant idea! Kyle showed us how innocent it is to ask if the Waitress could show us all her lower back tattoo. Was a beautiful.. tattoo.. *ahem*.

After that we gassed up and I bolted from the group. They all did some very exciting twisties, I heard on the grapevine that Dousche had burst his tyre but I just went straight down SH 1 to get home ASAP. Was in a great hurry because later that day I was bringing my girlfriend to a very expensive hotel in Paihia for a few days. Fun fun. SH 1 was particularly traffic heavy, and there were road works all along it slowing the whole traffic thing down. Me being the arsehole biker that I am just went straight past everyone. I was having a bit of a race with the Porsche 4x4 (Ugly fucker) unfortunately.. while racing him I failed to notice the cop car parked on the side of the road and he did.. Cop pulled up behind me and flashed me over while the Porsche drove past with a snide look on his face.. should'a got the registration number. I got booked with going 120 in 100, not the end of the world. And the cop was neither nice nor an arsehole.. I was just in a hurry to get back to Auckland so I didn't have time to get to know him and take him back to my place for a spot of tea and an arse kiss or two.

I made it back to Auckland.. Shoved some clothes in a bag, grabbed the cage. And did SH 1 all over again back to Paihia. The rest.. invovled very little clothing, lots of noise and bacon for breakfast.

And that was how it went, I've missed out on heaps, but I've written far too much. Big up's to Tod and the rest of the boys, was an awsome trip and count me in for the next one.

If anyone's keen for a ride drop me a text 021 1344468 and i'll gladly come on down. I'd ride with most of you guys again, if I don't respond or make some lame excuse, you'll know why.

[Badger8]

Got a reply back from the MILF... erm... i mean the mum from Whangarei too after i sent her the photo's of her kid on the bikes.
She said "Thanks Dylan - he was so wrapped when you guys came in. It took him a little while to sidle over where the bikes were. The photos are great"
and then her phone number :shifty:

Took a couple of shots of the front end of Gina before i gave her a good clean, was amazed at the amount of bugs, road spooge, and general kak that accumulated from just 1100k!

[EJK]

You guys may go to the East Cape during the ANZAC day, I'm going somewhere else lol

[TOTO]

[Jacko2]

[Macstar]

Good write up Nagash. You know I'd be happy to pay a few shillings to someone if they went around and collected everyones full-sized photos from the trip and made one master copy CD Rom.... takers?

[Badger8]

I was actually thinking about doing exactly that! Have portable 20G HD, will travel :yes: (well, MP3 player :bleh:)


LOL badger , here is the responce I got from her : "Thanks Todd - that was really nice of you - by the way he's my grandson"

Dude, GILF!!!! :D :spanking: :niceone: :laugh:

[Choco]

Alright, this is my ride report from what i remember.


Day 1

I thought was doing alright until I saw Mark (Chocolatewheels) rip it past me with ease. Not even breaking a sweat. Bastard...

I'm Mike, not Mark :laugh:

[TOTO]

I'm Mike, not Mark :laugh:

He was seeing double after youi passed him with the speed of light. I bet thats how the CBR600RR rider felt. :wacko:

[Choco]

He was seeing double after youi passed him with the speed of light. I bet thats how the CBR600RR rider felt. :wacko:

I think I broke the sound barrier just after I passed him :lol:

And whats this about you not coming EJ? Do we have to organize a ride that you CANNOT get out of? :angry:

On that note; anyone keen for a EJ dedicated ride? :D

[Nagash]

I'm Mike, not Mark :laugh:

Oh yeah, that's right. I forgot to tell you..

I kept on referring to you as Mark instead of Mike so I just decided to nickname you as Mark for conveniance.

[TOTO]

On that note; anyone keen for a EJ dedicated ride? :D

count me in. when and where ?

[Badger8]

count me in. when and where ?

To his garage?
THat way he cant pike, and he can sit on it as we push him up and down his driveway :bleh: :laugh:

[Choco]

Oh yeah, that's right. I forgot to tell you..

I kept on referring to you as Mark instead of Mike so I just decided to nickname you as Mark for conveniance.

:laugh: I must have missed the memo!


count me in. when and where ?

We need to find someone to lend him a bike/ get his fixed first though!
But a Corro Loop would be good though :Punk:

[Just beGiNing 250]

Great write up Nagash, the boredom of work was relieved for a few minutes. I'd do the same but it is all a bit of a blur; the riding was taking up all my concentration, no time to think... If anyone wants the full size photos I can email them.

[TOTO]

We should make a "Fix EJs' bike day"

OR
I fount this Motorcycle rental place ---> http://www.nzbike.com/2004/BikeDetails.asp?ParentPageId=6&CategoryId=-1133305014&BikeId=47

rental for a day is 100 bux so we can collect funds and rent him a bike for a day. :)

[Nagash]

Frosty has EJ's bike.. so we can all raid Frosty's new place :D

Sounds like fun.

[seamus81]

Day 3

And that was how it went, I've missed out on heaps, but I've written far too much. Big up's to Tod and the rest of the boys, was an awsome trip and count me in for the next one.

Great report buddy, we have to hit the road again soon, hope you had a good weekend with the missus...

anyone keen on going for a ride give me a text 0210706138 :clap:

[TOTO]

I did Scenic road and Piha road and back yesterday. Man bloody nice road - almost all of it is 45k corners or 35k corners. some 55k. Nice views too. suggest you guys try them if you are bored and have spare 1.5 hours. Good for a quick blast to take the devils out of your head.

[Nagash]

Shoulda popped in to my place Tod, I live on Scenic Drive :D

But yeah it's alright, just a bit of a warning, the road conditions are pretty poor due to heavy use. And in the more populated areas, slow down and keep your eyes open. The home owners on that road are sick of living there and they just pull out.

Other than that, it's a beautiful road.

[glice]

I'm keen for the photos on cds idea.

same with me if anyones going for a ride, give me a text 0211116462.

[EJK]

Instead of a ride, how about a BBQ?

[Nagash]

BBQ aye.. after the ride?!

[EJK]

Just a curiosity, in which room did you guys stayed in?

Heres a rough diagram...

[texmo]

Too many pages for me to read but was nice to meet you guys at the corner of woodcox and sh16. Hope the guy with the puncture sorted everythign out okay.

[Nagash]

I know these are the rooms we stayed in but the people were just sorta rough guesses..

Feel free to correct me where i'm wrong people.

[EJK]

In the room where TOTO, PockRock, Sinister, Macstar and Drider slept in, who slept on this bottom floor bunk bed?

Nothing gay here :whistle:

Far right, bottom floor bunk.

[Nagash]

That one had like 2 bunks and one just single bed.

I wasn't in there cabin..

You'll have to ask one of them. I assume it's the bed you stayed in?

[EJK]

:sunny:

+10 char

[Badger8]

:sunny:

+10 char

*cough cough* Get a room!
oh wait... that's what he's trying to do :lol: :bleh:

[sinister^]

Saving for next ride here I come. :crybaby:

[Nagash]

Yeah I reckon aye!

I just gathered up $10 in loose change to get some petrol for the AWNR tonight and work tommorow.

Being poor's a bitch..

[ital916]

I'm already saving too, as soon as i'm back up and running i'll be keen to do some weekend adventures. ;)

[Badger8]

Dude, cant wait for the next tour!

Anzac weekend sounds pretty mint to me, should be back in town by then! :niceone:

All going well will be rid of the L plate by then too! :D just gotta hope i can get a booking for my test in a timely fashion :yes:

[Choco]

I'm getting a job to maintain my riding addiction :pinch:

[gijoe1313]

Its great to read how you guys are so into the long riding to there and back! :2thumbsup I wholeheartedly approve!~

[TOTO]

In the room where TOTO, PockRock, Sinister, Macstar and Drider slept in, who slept on this bottom floor bunk bed?

Nothing gay here :whistle:

Far right, bottom floor bunk.

I actually beleave Glice was in the room with us and PocketCracker was in the room next to us.

I beleave Glice slept in that bed EJ. Is that the bed you slept in, how exiting ay.

one bed 2 bikers ....(damn that sounds wrong)

enough bed questions EJ.

The problem with the BBQ is that if its a good weather for BBQ , means its a good weather for a ride so I presume ride will get priority. What we CAN do is have the ride and come back to auckland and have a BBQ.

How about this saturday ? We do a ride to raglan in the morning, back in Auckland by about 5ish. Go past the buthcer, buy meat, and have a BBQ in One Tree Hill in Biker outfits. we will take pics and all. Anyone up for that ?

That all works if the weather is good ofcourse...

Glice , i beleave that there is a ride on sunday in the Auckland Uni SMC.

Yes it would be a nice ride ay Badger. Will Post a thread in meetings and events soon.

How does 9:00 am meet at BP autobahn Papakura sound to you guys ?

[Nagash]

The Uni ride has been moved the Saturday due to shit weather on Sunday..

I'm tossing the choices between going to ride with a new group of people or sticking with the people I know and trust.

I'll probably stick with you guys but will decide by tommorow.

[Badger8]

There was a website with a few pages of them on that i pinched em all from.
Will try and find it again at some stage, currently too boozed, and going on a food hunt :D

[TOTO]

Hey falks, here is a linky for the raglan ride on saturday.
