Did I say you couldn't ?


F/F :unsure:

Ah so by "faster riders" you mean those who would be fast if it wasn't for the fact that their bikes can only do a top speed of 120kph (and it needs to be a long straight or a downhill to achieve that speed)! I sooooooo need a bigger bike!

thanks Alex, get those bloody brakes sorted, hurry it up, I got 12 days Annual leave, this month, and the whole of May off on long service leave, no bloody excuses, and re :Police: Will have a GD escort with us.

so it all good.

Got my WOF now, so I'm keen if you don't mind me slowing you down. Got to be back in Papakura by 2.30 at the latest so Osteopath can tell me off for getting back on the bike!!!

[vifferman]

I'm seriously tempted. If I do go, you and me and justsomeguy could have our own pleasant cruise.

I'm so over all that "racing around the public roads squirting testosterone all over the tarseal" bullshit... :Pokey:

[Lord Pac]

Hey FF

Can sneak out but around 1300 might be a tad too late for you!

Have a safe one! :niceone:

[crashe]

and do watch out for those corners...

Actually I was really looking forward to riding with FF. I enjoy going at a faster pace - it's only my bike that is slowing me down. Sounds like FF can't come now, so I will do my own thing today.

I've (stupidly) gone to work. :blink:
Dunno why - I've nothing to do.




Oh yeah - now I remember - it's HOT. And there's aircon at work.<_<

What does "doing your own thing" entail? (No dodgy innuendo intended).

It means I went for a ride by myself. Headed out to Kawakawa Bay, sat on the breakwater for a little while watching all the juvenile fishies by the rocks trying to swim against the current. Then headed over the hill - peeps please note that there's a nasty patch of melted tar on one of the bends so take it easy if you're heading over that way. Saw two BMW riders at the side of the road consulting a map - waved as I went passed - got stony look in return. Ah well. Continued on towards Kaiaua. BMW riders overtook me - still no acknowledgement. Carried on my merry way. At Kaiau noticed BMW riders again getting directions from someone, found extra burst of speed as I blatted passed them. Did big fart as well so hopefully they got a good whiff of it!!! :devil2: (Note to self, must get air horns fitted to next bike for the benefit of pillocks like these). Happy happy joy joy demeanour as I continued my ride, dulled a bit when got onto SH2 and came across roadworks just before The Castle and traffic reduced to one lane. Waited... and waited... and waited..... and waited. After 50 cars and trucks had gone through, we were finally able to move again. Felt refreshed after my little snooze across the tank, so overtook everyone and then turned off towards Hunua. Headwind struck and I was reduced to doing 90kph with throttle fully rung out - wheeeee! Got through most of the gorge before encountering 4wd and horsefloat, so at least I got to have a little play.
Got back to find Papakura CBD evacuated.... You can all stop worrying now that it had something to do with me....

Ah bugger!
Actually gave work a miss and travelled up to meet you guys... when nobody turned up by 20 2 11, thought something like this may have happened.

Anyways, had a great trip down SH22 (by myself :crybaby: )
seemed to be a lot move gravel scattered around than 2 weeks ago - MR may want to do some recon before the newbe ride...

Met a few bikes, all waved (even the 3 bmw's!)

Oh well catch up maybe next time

will just ask FF, he knows all 186 potholes and will no doubt have added all the gravel patches to his virtual map.

Oopsie, missed this post by RR somehow.

I can vouch for the fact that she's a bit of a hoon alright. All she needs is a faster bike now. Even TS didn't get his knee down on the mighty rebel so that says something about the bike right? :yes:

Moi? :confused: I don't know where you get that impression!!!

Yes I NEED a faster bike! Not long now.... Although finances aren't looking likely for the Duc now :(
Actually I don't think it is physically possible to get knee down on the Rebel. But bless her, she looks so pretty and sparkly sitting outside in the sunshine after her bath!

[Motoracer]

Let's just say it was great watching your 4X4 fly into those 35k and 25k corners through the twisties. :2thumbsup

I hear they highside well..... Or cant you handle the mighty two stroke power??? :bleh:

[Riff Raff]

I prefer to keep highsiding out of my riding pleasure. But for some reason there seems to be a few people on here who actually enjoy the sensation!
I started my riding on a 2 stroke - I'm over it!
