Hope to get a semi decent turn out for my first jaunt back in the sadle.
NOT A RACE JUST A RIDE:laugh:

[Stormer]

I`m on call that weekend, but if it`s a Top-of-the-Takas-to-Martinborough type thang, then I`m in fer sure.

[driftn]

Yeah takas, marty, Gladdy, Any where the road may take us

[Weaver]

I'll give this a shameless bump.
Hopefully they will have sealed even more of the hill by labour weekend.

[elle-f]

[Lissa]

[driftn]

Hey guys and gals.

The weather is looking shit hot for monday so green light is on.

Was thinking about the time of meeting, Could be a touch early. What say
Caltex rimutaka at 10am as apposed to 9? Public holiday and all have a wee sleep in.

[chanceyy]

[Number One]

I concur - had already decided I wasn't going to drag my arse outta bed for a 9am meet up.

[driftn]

Jolly good. Looks like the 10am meet up is a reasonable hour.
What say leave quater/tweenty past.

[Number One]

[James Deuce]

I've let TSS know that the truck should be kept warm and probably parked up at the top of the Rimutakas.

[Nasty]

Why don't you take the Odyssey this time? :oi-grr:

[Number One]

:spanking: Don't swear at me! I have a perfectly good day out there, healthy mind and body (well as much as usual) a gorgeous bike in my garage but other what time management experts would call 'more important and urgent' matters to attend to than cruising in the sun on my bike.

There will be other glorious days I am sure......:confused:

[Str8 Jacket]

There will be other glorious days I am sure......:confused:

Nah, there wont be.

[Number One]

Nah, there wont be.
:laugh: fuck you!

BTW I will be sure to pootle around to your place one of those sunny days and rev the shit outta my bike when you aren't able to get out and about...

[Weaver]

That was the last of the sunny days used up No.1
Bloody good ride guys and girl

[Nasty]

[Weaver]

Glad you enjoyed your ride shit head ;)

I did, I don't think my bike liked it that much though. I'll have to change the oil tomorrow

[driftn]

Great day for a great ride:niceone: Apart from my muffler falling to bits:doh:.
Any body know where I can get a cheap after market pipe for the beast that is j-lo.

[driftn]

Oh running out of gas about a k out of carterton and having the beast die about 20 meters from the servo was a bit scary too:doh::doh:

I was going to ask how that went. J-lo would be a handful to push.

[Colapop]

Hell, even I managed a ride out yesterday!! None of that 9am crap though!! Good to catch a couple of faces out and about...

Tell you what, Trying to get across the main road in carterton with bumper to bumper traffic and a bike barley running on 2 cylinders was very entertaining. After she died it was a nice coast in to the servo. :clap: for my dear old bike. What a noble steed she is a touch thirsty but a good horse non the less.

Crikey....havent seen that for a while....
