Maha 400

[Maha]

Looking like a rather spankin' weekend will fall upon us this coming weekend.
I have a feeling Sunday may be the better of the two.

Leaving Warkworth Mobil at 10am.
Destination is Kaikohe.
From there, whoever wants to do the forrest can.
Alternative is back down twin bridges or SH1 to Waipu/Langs/Mangawhai.

First regroup will be Maungatapere.
Second regroup at the bridges.

[avgas]

tonight we dine in hell?

[Qkchk]

Anyone can do this ride, no need to be intimidated about my 'powerful as' Honda, it goes slow too ya know!

Oh good, a ride that Qkkid can join in on and keep up............

Warkworth Mobil...we leave at 10am, does that suit?

[MadDuck]

(dunno if I can be seen with a H***a though....)

Fair enough. Can you cope with being seen around a H****y though?


Think 'Famous acting Family' Lloyd/Beau/Jeff.....:yes:


Yes that is a really little clue .... NOT!

I am going straight to Maungatapere Adam, I sure some will want to do the Pap rd. But regroup at the foot of TB rd. Pm me your cell number and I will let you know before we leave on Sunday....Mark

[Maha]

hey ... i have a Duc .. will there be a gas station every 50kms or so ?

Starting point is a Gas Station, there one at the first regroup point and then you 70 kms of yippy yeh rd till the next.



Yes that is a really little clue .... NOT!

I could have ment um......Auckland bridges?....:shifty:

[Hinny]

10 am start is a bit early for me. Maybe I could catch you up.:whistle:

[Maha]

10 am start is a bit early for me. Maybe I could catch you up.:whistle:

But we are heading away from you.....:scooter:

[Maha]

Word just in from my man in the north that the said rd is not in that gooda nic...

[The Stranger]

I believe there might be, will have to confrim with Maha though :shutup:

There was s rumour floating around that road was pretty cut up by earlier floods.
Anyone in the KNOW on this.

Paparoa rd is rough as at the south end due to repairs and subsidence, but there was no loose metal around.
Old Russell Rd is in good nic, only one wash out.

[Scouse]

Would have come along if it was a Saturday ride but I have made a prior arrangement with errr somone for Sunday

[DMNTD]

Oh I have a fantastic solution :devil2:

Just my attempt at humour.
Mind you the speed that Ginga thinks I ride at I might be able to catch you up.
I have to paint a bathroom at Snell s Beach first.
Might have to get up early.

[Maha]

I think I know that.:innocent:



I know you knew that, I knew that you would know I knew that you knew that. Thats why knowing that you knew that, I said it...nothing new there.

[Crisis management]

Do you lot have any faint idea where you're going to? I'm off to north Auckland / Kaipara way on sunday trying to learn how to ride my new toy in the gravel and if you lot are stopping anywhere I may be able to drop in and put some faces to names.

Vaque hints or clues are all I need otherwise I'm sure at some time in the afternoon I will be looking for a pub, probably Warkworth or Puhoi on the way home.

Iain

[DMNTD]

Yep....an update to the plan would be good as Unit is up in Whangarei atm and is keen to hook up with us along the way somewhere. ;)

[Korumba]

And me too....

[Korumba]

Up North that is!

[Grahameeboy]

I know you knew that, I knew that you would know I knew that you knew that. Thats why knowing that you knew that, I said it...nothing new there.

Can you put an event up as I will be there Sunday......where, what time or whatever

Yes there is ooooonit
We are leaving warkworth at 10am.
First stop will be at Maungatapere (begining of Te Twin Bridges rd) at around 11am.
Then up to Kaikohe, would like to stop at the bridges cos its so pretty :rolleyes:

From there, ya'll can choose which way back down country (guessing you will take the wooded way? :msn-wink:

[Unit]

Cheers Maha. Anyone spoken to Doc Doug re road conditions up Te twin bridges way? (can be a bit dodgy this time o year but hopefully not tomorrow). VERY tempted re the big woods, havent been that way in the longest time now and the weather is looking te premo tomorrow from where I sit. Mr D made it to Auckland today with newly tuned up Duc suspension, aparently is awesome but needs further testing :eek: I will hook up with yous fullas in Mangatapere if we are joining yous fullas, all plans going to plan

The twins are apparently ok. A bit of crap after them towards Kaikohe. The Pap/oak route is a no go atm. Cant comment on the woody, guess it is take your chances. Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow!

[Unit]

Yes I guess everything is ride with care at this time of the year. The forest will be damp in places but dang, if the weather turns it on for us tomorrow (and the met man says it will) we should all be in for a great day out. Still trying to figure the Ks, will be a bit of a mish, but hey thats what Monday sick days are for arent they? :doctor:

Here is the 'txt' er 'email' er whatever (not a pm :innocent:) I got from Mr D...


Mangakahia (Twin Bridges) is not too bad at the moment. Not much it the way off road works, but watch out for the potholes and peametal washed on ta the road, especially leading up to and going North for the Twin Bridges. Road it with Laava and the Use-less-ly Last Sunday. Best thing they did was stopping the brigdes to regroup as it brought the pace down past the bridges. There was a few messy corners (potholes & peametal on blind apexes) just North of the bridges which needed ya Bike brain turned on.

[oldguy]

hi guys, have a great ride, :yes:there was a bit of road works going on, around the twin bridges, mangakahia Rd, so just be careful, though that was about a month ago when I was last up that way.

[rustycharm]

Any of you shore guys (and gals) wanna meet up before warkworth?

[MadDuck]

Could meet you in Orewa if you want

[rustycharm]

Could meet you in Orewa if you want

Sounds like a plan... was gonna gas up at the Dairy Flat BP at around 9ish if any of you other shorites want to hook up - and we can collect MadDuck along the way...

Where suiteth the madam?

[zx rider]

:sunny:Yep i think i'll be there. Any idea what time you might get back to Warkworth Maha?:

[zx rider]

Sweet Dairy flat at 9 it is

[MadDuck]

Where suiteth the madam?

I will be lurking around the BP in Orewa at 9.15ish...opposite the surf club cos on the other side is the sea and bikes and salt water dont work too well together I hear.

[rustycharm]

Sweet Dairy flat at 9 it is

i'll be looking for a sweet ZX7r then


I will be lurking around the BP in Orewa at 9.15ish...opposite the surf club cos on the other side is the sea and bikes and salt water dont work too well together I hear.

we'll swing by the BP about 9:15ish

[Maha]

:sunny:Yep i think i'll be there. Any idea what time you might get back to Warkworth Maha?:

Na not really zx....Im looking to come back through Waipu/Mangawhai wont be late, maybe 3.30ish?
Mangawhai Tavern makes good coffee :whistle:

[Laava]

All shot on the same corner, sorry about the quality.

[Laava]

And the rest plus some photo's from Club Rute. Check out the entertainment, note the nifty tongue action!

[piston broke]

ahh crap,tried to find y'all.
when did you leave warkworth?
i stopped at the bottom of brenderwyn at about 10.50,found the twin bridges at 12.00

[Laava]

I think I saw you slip thru Maungatapere while we were waiting for the mob. They didn't get to Maungatapere till about 11.25, so you were ahead of them. Shame you didn't look right, up to the gasser!

[piston broke]

shite i thought as much.
thought i was late so i sorta gassed it a bit.
i found a couple of corners just before the bridges that were a bit tighter than i saw,had to back it in a little.
a little dodgy a km either side of the bridges eh.
lucky i came home highway 1, as i blew the left fork seal,she didn't like the lefthanders after that,the wrists are feelin it a bit.
nice ride tho,i will have to do it again

[Maha]

And the rest plus some photo's from Club Rute. Check out the entertainment, note the nifty tongue action!

Yeah the swinging girlies are a hoot eh?
Im about to go bash a Rat, will put some pics up soonish.

[piston broke]

hundy for the 6hundy

[piston broke]

not.......

[Mom]

Ok, I admit it, I made up a word today.

Well it is not a made up word as such, it has a real clear meaning, specially used they way I did :yes:

My made up word was the result of combining two words together, I promise I will try harder to formulate sentences in future.

The result of my lazy mouth/brain combination saw me very clearly ask Draco if she wanted a root? :o

Not sure which one of us was more surprised actually :lol: there was a moment of absolute silence before we both started laughing :killingme

Mind you she is Hawt, hawt, hawt, loved the lap dance babe :love:

What a fantastic day out! Good to meet a few new faces too, and extra good to see some we have not seen in ages!

The two word combo that tripped me up today;

rain suit - root

See anyone could have done that! :sunny:

[Maha]

Awesome weather for a change. Cool mix of bikes and the owners were ok too....:innocent:
Some single pics of some very gnarly biks.

The Buell pic, Draco can be cleary seen doing her infamous 'Duck Dance'....why? I dont know...:wari:

[idleidolidyll]

it's good to ride up north every now and then; reminds me why i rarely bother

too much traffic, too much road works, not enough options

south is always better

[Maha]

Maungatapere and Paihia, where we had a pit stop. Lunch at Paihia, we finally found it.......eh Laava???.....:whistle:

Pocketcracker checking to see if the stickey white stuff will scrape off his helmet....:hug:

[Laava]

Yeah you're right there III, it was a fuckin drag today following all that traffic!

[Maha]

The Ducati and SV Pic is a fantastic shot even if I do say so myself.

[MadDuck]

I prefer the picture of the pretty 'white' bike myself.....;) and as for that photo of those two rude women I think Laava could sell that one.

Great day with a great bunch. I find the wee Harley doesnt really like falling into potholes too much. And as for those damn cows taking up the entire road...I am sure they will make great steaks one day.

The traffic came to a screeching holt just past Puhoi for no reason that I could see. Nice to be able to just go round the outside of them.

[hospitalfood]

well, after leaving you all we had a gentle run down through the forest after a bite.
next time we will stick with the pack.

Avon Storm on rear is worn out. Less than 5000kms. Won't be putting them back on.
Hey Laava, when I saw you down the bank I thought you had binned. Couldn't figure out how your bike got where it was for an instant. Kind of spoiled the shot as I stood the bike up and slowed considerably. Could have got a good lean on if I realised what you were really up to.:woohoo:
