Thursday Nana rides

[_Shrek_]

Well as Wednesday nights don't suit us all because of work/family & there are some already meeting on Thursday so why cant we meet both nights :niceone:

[laRIKin]

Mutineer :whistle:

[Dave-]

ill go both nights!

twice as much riding sounds good to me.

[Retroqueen]

I'll happily watch this space!!! :rockon:

[stevewederell]

Watching this space with baited breath

[Shadows]

Watching this space with baited breath

It's bated. As in abated.

Not baited, as in smelling like fish.

As you were.

[McWild]

Like Dave said, twice as much riding, I'm well keen.

[Transalper]

Is there a set time and place to meet/depart from??

[_Shrek_]

Is there a set time and place to meet/depart from??

the same time & place as every one knows where it is, & when the rides are heading out over the Ymac we can meet you at Pine Acre's corner or Rangiora Mobile

[SDU]

Someone say Nana ride! Pick me;)

[Transalper]

Are you going to make a call on destination here a day or so before?
It would be a dam sight easier if this ride is a dictatorship, we tried democracy on Wednesday and it's broken now.:girlfight:

:laugh: Fidel Castrol works for me, I'm over the pc BS that has ravished this country over the last nine years

I don't mind organising :ride:

"BUT ANY ONE TAKING PART DOES SO AT THEIR OWN RISK"

& any one that's doing dumb shit and/or riding in a manner that is likely to cause harm to any one will be asked to leave :kick:

cheers Shrek

[SpeedMonger]

Are you going to have scones and devonshire tea at the destination? you naughty nana's:dodge: I would come on thursday if wednesday's weather is looking shitty. Or is this for off road nanas only?

[_Shrek_]

only if our two naughty nana's HOT & Retroqueen bring the scones :drool: other than that it's for all bike's
:devil2: we can include some fun roads with out tar

[Flip]

Don't really do gravel on my old belt drive bike, but I do like the option of a nana ride on Thursday. I can't take the bike to work on Wed and have to go home to get it, but on Thurs I can take the bike to work it's all much easier.

[Subike]

well now, this could give me a good excuse to buy an 250 adventure bike,
as I am looking seriously at relocationg back to CHCH for family reasons there may be the need for me to put some more things on my xmass goal list.

as for the rides themselves.
a good road captain setting the pace is always better than a free for all race.
the onlly part of the WNR that I found to be lacking.

Sounds like this could be a new beginning to some serious co-operation between good friends that will benifit us all in the long run.

It dont mater who is the best rider, or who has the best bike, its who are your good road buddies in the end that counts. The ones that you can trust with your life,

You hit the nail right on the head, its about being the best rider or riding buddy you can be espcially in such a big mixed group.

[_Shrek_]

Thursday's arn't just for adventure bikes they are for every one, there maybe occasional rides where there is metal & when there is there will be a tarseal option

This weeks :ride: leave Burger King 6:30pm to Rangiora pick those at Mobile stn 7:00pm head to Oxford via Loburn, Glentui through Oxford over the Ymac turn left get onto tramway Rd to Kirwee stop for :drinkup: & :corn: then head for home

[stevewederell]

As you were.

Maybe you could help again...

Is it ass, or arse...as in kiss my?:whocares:

Cool I'll join in this one at least to Oxford. Seeing as I have to come home at some stage or Mr's Hornet might get grumpy with me, she seems to have more sting than I do and stings more often :spanking:

[Shadows]

Maybe you could help again...

Is it ass, or arse...as in kiss my?:whocares:

That would depend on whether you were into bestiality or not.

[ducobsessed]

i love an option.

[SpeedMonger]

I wont be there tonight been given the hard word. But i will wave a hanky humming god save the queen as you all ride past the gate

[McWild]

But i will wave a hanky humming god save the queen as you all ride past the gate
Haha what a Hollywood :bye:
I too was wrong, but I might turn up to get BK on the scooter and have a cry. Have fun!

[Mrs Shrek]

:headbang: things gone wrong at work today so Shrek having to work late to get the job done. He won't be able to make it but you guys that go have an awesome ride :clap:

[Mrs Shrek]

Is it ass, or arse...as in kiss my?:whocares:


That depends......:devil2: if Shrek is asking you to give donkey :sleep: kisses then its "ass", but if your talking about smootches on the gluteus maximus then you'll be wanting the latter word.
Hope this helps.... :rofl:

[Transalper]

:eek: I'm working tooooo :doh:
Hope it goes well for those who go.:corn:

hope you guys have a good ride :2thumbsup:

[Dave-]

haha, well 3 of us showed, talked shit, then went to our separate homes!

she'll be up to speed next week though!

[McWild]

What are you talking about? We went to Duvauchelles via Gebbie's got our respective knees down, and you pulled that huge wheelie through the tunnel!

How can you not remember?!

[Mr Triple]

And here I was waiting at the Rangiora Mobile.... waiting waiting and waiting:( :zzzz:went home and packed the bike for tomorrow;)

[KingJackaL]

What are you talking about? We went to Duvauchelles via Gebbie's got our respective knees down, and you pulled that huge wheelie through the tunnel!

How can you not remember?!

...but at the end of the tunnel they were doing road works, and we didn't want to wait. So we all went up that ramp on the back of the truck and jumped over the roadworks.

But then we noticed that there were 3 police cards and a SWAT van heading home after a raid on the other side, so had to evade them heading into town on our OMG SO AWESOME FAST 250^H^H^HLiter bikes!

But then it started snowing, so we had to raid a tire store, steal a bunch of SNOW TIRES WITH PHAT MAGS, fit them and then get away. Naturally by this point the police were unable to catch us, so we just cruised home (after doing some laps up Colombo street and pulling ALL the hot wimmenz!)

*COUGH*

[McWild]

Oh that's right. I must have forgotten because we were all so drunk at the time.

[Mully Clown]

It was a Nana Night to the extreme.

[gammaguy]

Like Dave said, twice as much riding, I'm well keen.

[Transalper]

Was going to come... damn work.....
Same here.
Am free to ride Wednesday though... work shuts down on Tuesday next week :woohoo: until after the new year, then it starts back again :sick:
Hoping to get out :scooter: midweekish more after the new year as the Christmas rush at work should be well over.

[McWild]

Good ride guys, really cruisy and enjoyable!

Looks as if it IS possible to take the bike out too much in one day though, having taken it to diamond harbour and back earlier in the day. Either me or the bike was just not on the ball, as simply changing gear seemed to need a voracious kick to even work, and my bike was weak to the point of cutting out on me several times while supposedly idling.

But we can't blame the bike for everything!
My two moments of great shame were switching from neutral to first but forgetting the clutch, making me hang my head in shame. The second was on leaving the twisted hop, pulling in the clutch, starting it up, letting out the clutch and oh look we're in gear. Watching the bike momentarily leap towards the brick wall and car that it was facing made my heart skip a beat.

...I think it's time, in the spirit of the nana ride, to go to bed.:sleep:

[Dave-]

haha mc,

good ride all, Hope I kept the pace to a nice nana like speed.

look forward to more next time!

[Retroqueen]

Had never done that side of the summit before!!! what a view and I also got some great tips to getting my corners sussed!!! Thanks team.... Gotta go need to post the girlies coffee ride details!!! Gals check the Ch-ch Gals thread

[Mully Clown]

Great ride folks. Looking forward to next time.

[helenoftroy]

good ride all, Hope I kept the pace to a nice nana like speed.


Umm yes you did......Dave being led by a Vespa down Dyers!!!!classic!!:rofl:

Theres a first for everything:devil2::bleh:

[AllanB]

Good idea.
I agree with the dictatorship - just post a couple of days before (that would be Tuesday :whistle:) where you intend to go.

I like the Nana reference - too many group rides end up a pissing contest.

[_Shrek_]

1st time for me over Evans will have to do it on my own :devil2: there is just too much nice road to do it at nana's pace, but I did enjoy the :ride: company & the :drinkup:

well done up front Dave & to the newbies :niceone:

[Dave-]

Umm yes you did......Dave being led by a Vespa down Dyers!!!!classic!!:rofl:

eh, it wasn't that hard to restrain myself...

He was leaning the wrong way in corners bike in to the corner, and body out, at least I assume it's the same for scooters, so I was wary of anything.

and besides, it's a nana ride :P you know very well I could've blitzed him HOT, now stop winding me up or I'll start pointing out which one of us can show restraint :P actually we saw a few cops this time didn't we helen? at least I did....

[_Shrek_]

eh, it wasn't that hard to restrain myself..

:devil2: well i didn't have to restrain myself today as went up over Evans today on my own :woohoo: :wari:

[Transalper]

...He was leaning the wrong way in corners bike in to the corner, and body out, at least I assume it's the same for scooters, so I was wary of anything....

Bike in, body out has its place in riding, more so at walking speeds on sealed stuff, remember the tight u-turns, and we do it in shingle often (whenever the situation dictates).

[SpeedMonger]

:devil2: well i didn't have to restrain myself today as went up over Evans today on my own :woohoo: :wari:

Well you didn't stay a nana for long, methinks you have fallen on your own knitting needles:whistle:

Maybe the WNR's should become the Nana night and Thursdays Ultimate Hoonage Night

[helenoftroy]

I saw some!!.....this time!!:yes:

Thanks guys for a nice wee ride, sorry I had to shoot off from the pub so quick but next time I'll make more of an effort. It was certainly a positive experience for my first thursday (or wednesday for that matter) night ride and I'm keen to make it a little more regular if the 3 W's let me (work, weather and women!).

[helenoftroy]

Great night for a wee ride guys:banana:

Good to meet you garfeild69

Diamond Harbour this week guys cya at BK :niceone:

[McWild]

Bike gets dropped off at the shop tomorrow at 12 o clock!

So I might actually be able to come once again. Failing that, if takeaways are the go then I'm sure I'll find the time to scoot along and heckle you all about the fuel savings I get with my 3.5 litre fuel tank.

CAN'T GET THAT ON A SPORTSBIKE!!!

[JMemonic]

Hmm Diamond Harbour, I am not sure if was just me and the other half but we sure as heck got the impression they were not happy with us turning up last Wednesday night.

Mongrel waitress was it?

I would just have to say a general feeling from both bar staff (or owners perhaps) that we were not welcome and they had other plans aside from serving another 30 odd people.

[Shadows]

I would just have to say a general feeling from both bar staff (or owners perhaps) that we were not welcome and they had other plans aside from serving another 30 odd people.

A call the day before to let them know you're coming would probably solve that.

[JMemonic]

Lol yeah it would go

US: Hi we are coming over tomorrow night, a group of folks on motorcycles.

THEM: How many will there be

US: Umm well there could be anywhere from 10 to 50 of us not sure really.

THEM: Well that's helpful umm thanks for the call.

And to be honest I doubt it would make much difference.

$12.50 for a handle.

[Mully Clown]

Ouch. Hope you're not too sore.

[Subike]

A repeat of what I have posted in the Wed Night Ride thread,
This applys to you guys as well

I have spoken to the short order cook at the Greta Bar,
To make sure there is someone there to cook you some chips!
They are expecting between 10 and 30 of us arrive between 7.30 and 8pm.
So the more of you all that come the better,
I should be waiting to join up with you at the Waikari turn off, :scooter:
Road gangs are in the area at the moment repairing small sections of the road on the main roads, so be aware of little unmarked new seal spots.
If it looks light grey, then it will be new with loose metal on top, beware.
So see you all on the road :rockon:

[helenoftroy]

Im up for a Thursday ride this week:woohoo::scooter:

[Dave-]

Mj and I have said we'll be there.

GRETA x2!!!

[helenoftroy]

Fantastic evening for a ride:banana:

9 bikes,awesome scenery,great company......Good to catch up subike(come to Woodstock!!:niceone:)

life is good!!:woohoo:

[JMemonic]

I second Helens sentiments only two things would have improved the evening for me, my other half had not taken the extra shift and come along and our Bavarian Motorcycle Wrecker had been there.

Oh Subike you really should consider the Woodstock rally.

[garfield69]

What a fantastic night for a ride, gorgeous weather and scenery (and people of course). Loved it!

[Dave-]

sound of a ducati 748

want that in my life, between my legs :D

[Subike]

Really great to catch up with all you guys.

Twas a really good evening, good roads, no wind, warms sunshine.
The group rode their steeds up the scargill valley road like a well oiled machine,
Such a pleasure to be sitting at the rear, seeing the stream of good riders pootling along between the sea of brown grass, fenceposts and tall pines. The sound making the wooly jumpers scatter from their evening munch out of the tender new grass shoots.
Even the cheeky magpies fled from the sound of the steel horses thundering up the valley, their armoured road warriors intent on their destination, a cold beer and a bowl of chippes at the Grtea Valley Taven.
Ahh the enjoyment of well behaved pootlin group rides.

Yeap Woodstock calls, mmmmmmmmm:shifty:

[freshair]

wot a great night for a ride !! great company, sunshine and a beer, couldnt ask for more :mobile:

[JMemonic]

I had to chuckle last night I saw a representation of this guy riding a ZXR on the way up :ride: that musta been some good sounds.

[Peeteey]

Aha! Thanks to a tip I've found you lot! Well done Jeremy, cheers mate!
Will see you lot next week. Am in the studio this week but next should be a go-er!
I was getting sad as I work late on Wednesday eves and can't join them unless work is cancelled so to find a thurs group has made my evening, other than the nice ride I just had ...
Was anyone else out riding tonight? Beautiful evening for it.

:soon:

[Mr Triple]

I hope Shrek you find another bike you like soon.

Mmm I wonder what he'll get, hope not too long Shrek

Wet route eh, can't complain..............

[Retroqueen]

Just checking in to see if anyone is riding tonight? I have a new tyre on the front and thought it might be a nice chance to wear it in before I head away tomorrow......:eek:

[Dave-]

I'll be there at 6!

[Retroqueen]

Well huh huh huh where are we going????

[NighthawkNZ]

Well huh huh huh where are we going????

for I ride... ;)



speaking oh which have the thursday evening rides in Dunners tonight so I better go find me leather jacket, keys lether trou, helmet, wallet, boots... hmmm where did I put my gloves?

[Dave-]

Well huh huh huh where are we going????

*shrugs*

wets route?

thursday night usually follows the same road as wednesday night.

i think it's so the thursday night crew can pretend they were on the (obviously cooler) wednesday night ride in conversation.

for example I might say to liv in a few weeks time "...and all that livestock on summit road!" and she'll know im talking about the wednesday night ride where stanley kept getting sheeped. Someone who's eavesdropping or legitimatly in our conversation will be all "haha...oh yeah...that happened to us on the thursday night too...ha...fuckin sheep" and that's my queue to say "what literally?" and they're all "what literally?" and I'm all "fucking sheep, were you actually having intercourse with a sheep?"

and that's how I be funny.

[Mully Clown]

Hope I make it in time...

[McWild]

Hope I make it in time...

Haha I like how you posted that at (apparently) ten past six.

Hope you all had a decent ride, even though as of this posting you're probably just past Lytellton...

Might be keen to cruise along next week if the bike has a good amount of ks on it.

[Mully Clown]

Haha I like how you posted that at (apparently) ten past six.


Had to leave a vague time reference to justify arriving just as you were all about to gear up.

Was a decent ride over and the Wheatsheaf was good as per usual. Dad turned up just as I was putting my helmet on so I figured I should do the decent thing and stay for a drink with him

[Lil'M]

Why have I only just discovered this Thursday night idea! might have to pop along to the next one :scooter:

[Wet]

No ride for me tonight although I did rather enjoy last weeks exclusive ride. Only 4 of us turned up but it was good.

Cheers

[Peeteey]

Where was everyone tonight? I turned up just after 6 and was the only one there. Didn't hang round long, thought maybe meeting place had been changed or something. Been ages since I've been able to have a thursday free.
Still had a nice ride round the hills on the way home, got some good video of dodgy driver on the hills :crazy:
Will be there again next thurs I hope.

[fireliv]

I think Thursdays have slowly been filtering out while shrek is bikeless......

[Peeteey]

I think Thursdays have slowly been filtering out while shrek is bikeless......

What a pain, it's my only night for riding with you lot.

If anyone is keen I'm up for next thurs :2thumbsup

[rosie631]

Hi. I'm new on here but I'm keen for a Thursday ride. Just let me know when and where. cheers

[Peeteey]

Hi. I'm new on here but I'm keen for a Thursday ride. Just let me know when and where. cheers

Hi Rosie, I'm guessing by the last post that thursdays are on hold. It's a shame as it's the only night I can ride with the group.
I'm still keen to ride as much as possible however and, so long as the weather is ok, I'll be there this thurs.

They meet at the Burger King car park on Moorhouse Ave at 6 for a 6.30 departure. Turn into the car park from moorhouse and take the first left into the little burger king waiting area there.

I'm still keen to ride Thursdays if anyone else is. Let's see if we can't get them going a bit more that present, see who turns up.

:scooter:

[Mr Triple]

If I'm not working I'll turn up on Thursday and go for a wee tootle

[rosie631]

Yep. I'll be there too.

[_Shrek_]

If I'm not working I'll turn up on Thursday and go for a wee tootle

:niceone: Brent they shouldn't stop just coz i'm not there, off to welly tomorrow 11th to pick up our new Best of Burden :msn-wink:

[helenoftroy]

Yep. I'll be there too.
If the weather behaves i will be there:woohoo:

[laRIKin]

Where do you think you will be going?
As I may turn up as well.

Worked late last night and are to stuffed to do one to night.

[Flip]

Just got the bike fixed. Think I might try to turn up as well.

Wets route is it?

[Mr Triple]

How about Little River or if that's not suitable what about the Wheatsheaf. Lemans If you're going can you give me a txt if I'm not there on time as maybe a little late. I'll catch up or meet you wherever you're going to be.
Oops just seen the "wets route" put up by Flip that will be cool as well.

[laRIKin]

How about Little River or if that's not suitable what about the Wheatsheaf. Lemans If you're going can you give me a txt if I'm not there on time as maybe a little late..

[neels]

I'm tempted to come along for a ride tonight, seeing as summer is almost gone and I've had bugger all time on the bike lately.

How long are you normally out for? (By that I mean riding time, I realise the hanging around afterwards time is infinitely variable:apint:)

[Wannabike]

I'll try to be there (if I finish work on time), since the Wednesday night ride didn't happen.

Depending on destination obviously....but usually no more than an hours riding:chase:

[neels]

Sounds good, did I read correctly further back that it's about 6ish at burger king on Moorhouse ave?

[helenoftroy]

Yeah thats the place!.... meet around 6ish and head away bout 6.30:scooter:

[rosie631]

Bugger, had hoped to make this tonight. Just finished work now so not enough time to go home and get bike. Have a good ride.

[Mully Clown]

I would've come along tonight... if I'd made it to the bike shop in time to collect from its service.

[Wannabike]

A great ride tonight, enjoyed it immensely, despite being blown all over the road by the wind. Thanks to LeMans, Neels and Retroqueen for helping to sort out my front lamp. Wouldn't have been much fun riding back into Christchurch with no light.

[helenoftroy]

Pleased you got it sorted....Left with Pam to get a head start:msn-wink:

That was a great wee ride:ride:

Good to be out on the DR

[laRIKin]

It was a good wee ride all right.
I'm glad I went even if the weather looked a bit dodgy.
I glad I found that my carb was loose on the poor old dear.:Oops:
She doesn't run well on one, thanks also for the tools to tighten up the clamp.:Playnice:

I hope Pam enjoyed her self.

And Retro, shit your head light is bright, I had a warm back all the way home.:laugh:

[neels]

Thanks to LeMans, Neels and Retroqueen for helping to sort out my front lamp.
Would have been a dodgy ride home with no headlight, I kept an eye on my mirror to make sure it was still working :crazy:

Great night for a ride, haven't been for a decent thrash over the hills for ages. Next time I'll have to remember to gas up before I go though, it's a bit ugly switching to reserve in the windy bits (both kinds tonight).

[_Shrek_]

good to see ya had fun, just got home with the new donkey :love:

lol... very very very slow... is that a race class!!! ;) I dont have leathers and balls.. yet! ;) I have deregistered the bike as my son is 12 and she is such a good little bike I reckon she is worth hanging onto for a few years until he can ride.. but racing... mmmmm??? lol ;):headbang:

dont need balls to race, they tend to get in the way, in all meanings of that! come out and watch and then you might just feel the urge to do it. Damn shame to have an RG just sitting there

The bug has bitten!! I can't wait to get back out on the track. Gutted I can't make it on Saturday, but I guess that's what happens when you have too many hobbies!!

We will decide when we meet up I reckon:2thumbsup

[McWild]

Cheers guys but tbh my part of the ride (up Dyer's pass) was just awful... nearly lowsided when my backwheel hit a rock round a corner.
Was chased by a suicidal Audi driver to whom the centreline meant nothing in her attempts to keep up with me...fuckin scary. Then she went onto summit road in sunstrike and I think it'll be a miracle if there's not a cyclist death in the news or something tomorrow.
Then same thing with some bogan on the way down (Cashmere side, I was freaking out).
Hope you guys enjoyed yourselves more than me.
