    With only 2 days until the new year, and just over 2 months until the season starts it's time for a new thread. Who's your money on? Will Bagnia do the triple? Will Marc return to former glory and bring us a season in which he dominates? Will Martin secure his dream to win a championship?...

    Another (road) litre bike bites the dust in Europe

    Thread Starter: onearmedbandit

    The R1 and R1M are being dropped from the road bike line up in Europe, like the GSXR before it. Euro 5+ emission laws and dwindling sales are the main, if not only, reasons. Like the R6 there will be a track only version. https://www.rideapart.com/news/709594/yamaha-r1-r1m-discontinued-europe/ ...

  • Fat Bikers Motorcycle Club Official Launch / Lunch - NEW DATE - SUNDAY 6TH FEB 2011

    THE DATE FOR THIS EVENT HAS NOW CHANGED TO SUNDAY 6TH FEBRUARY 2011

    You are cordially invited to join us as we celebrate the official launch of the Fat Bikers Motorcycle Club…..so people, lets do a lunch launch..!!

    This will be a gastronomic event of voluptuous proportions based on a traditional meal that has been handed down from fat bastard to fat bastard over the centuries and now resurrected to lick start your waistline for 2011 and beyond.

    But first, a little history.

    In 1875, a small group of settlers decided that it was time to ditch the bland and unsavory fare of the day and go looking for new and exciting food. Their quest led them to the ancient tomb of King Farquar Crispin, leader of the Colsaunders Tribe, a mysterious race of people who specialized in blending herbs and spices. Deep in the bowels of the tomb they found a fossilized manuscript entitled Potsannagravy which, when interpreted, was in fact a secret recipe for the main diet of the Colsaunders people. This was hastily recreated and scoffed down.

    However, the settlers longed for more, and it was almost 200 years later that they discovered a further tribe called the Macdees. Originally form Scotland, the Macdees had a fearsome reputation. Their leader Ron Macdee, was renowned for squashing whole cows into a round shape that was then placed on the ceremonial grill and served to his faithful warriors. Again, the settlers resurrected the ancient recipe and called it ‘The Pounder’ after Ron Macdee’s squashing activities. The settlers realized that a full cow was far too much to eat in one sitting so they divided it into quarters and threw in some cheese to keep the flies away.

    These discoveries led to the famous meal of King Farquar Crispin’s Potsannagravy (KFC Potatoes and Gravy) followed by the divided Pounder of the Macdees tribe (Macdonalds Quarter Pounder).

    So people, we will be launching the FBMC with a 3 course traditional lunch starting with Potatoes and Gravy (with spicy chips) at KFC followed by a trip to MacDonalds for a Quarter Pounder and finishing up with a desert pie on the beach (or where ever)

    These are the details for the Auckland event:

    Meet at KFC Quay Street at 11.00am for a scoff down at 11.30.

    Then ride (but I suppose we should walk, they are next to each other) to McDonalds Quay Street for a quarter pounder.
    Then ride (no walking this time) to Mission Bay via a loop of Quay Street / Beach Road / The Strand / Tamaki Drive to Mission Bay where we have our desert pie, talk some bollocks and what ever else.

    This is a national event and the idea is for those all around this great country to get on board and do the same. You can find your local KFC and McD’s on these links:

    http://www.kfc.co.nz/index.cfm?contentNodeID=433

    http://mcdonalds.co.nz/find-us/restaurant

    Remember to bring your bike, a camera and your choice of desert pie

    That’s that. Hope you can make it. See you for lunch…

      Has anyone had a thought about what desert pie they are going to bring? I'm not too sure myself so am after some decent ideas on this one.

      Either that or a piece of nice cake......ooohhhhh
      Custard pies.. not the yellow jelly shit ones. The real vanilla custard ones are the way to go. Found a bakery in Gled Eden that sells the old fashioned type.

      Pure heaven. Shit now I'll have to go a buy some tomorrow!!

Unless I can talk the boss, to give me an honorable Maori Day Off on Monday in honour of Waitangi Day, then I could arrange to be there with thick waist and big hips with pies in saddle bags!
      come down the road to the Welly meet.

      I propose starting at Maccas in Mana, over the hill to KFC Avalon, then into town for dessert at a bar or cafe ( open to suggestions on that one )
      Any takers please let me know, otherwise I'll stay home and sulk

      Ok, anyone who wants to come along but cant, register your interest and I'll see what I can do to represent you.

      Will I get a medal if I can do the deed?

      What we need is teeny tank stickers, a pie with a circle around it and a big slash across the middle, liek the ones you can get to tick off possums you have run over

      Loving that idea, although rather than a pie I would sooner have the Jenny Craig logo with a line through it to show how many of their farking annoying reps you have run down....either that or a bowl of salad

      Stirts is onto it, just think of it as the extra stuff you guys dont want anyway.
      Jack Sprat could eat no fat
      His wife could eat no lean
      and so ( something something something )
      they licked the platter clean.

      Now there is another idea...plate licking competitions. Regional reps going forward to a national Plate-Off

      In London that has an entirely different meaning which I shall not revisit, we have ladies present....

      But, I reckon a similar compo could be Bikers Have Bowls......make a cake and its a "Who Can lick their bowl the fastest" challenge. Us bikers will be settled into a spectator role watching it all go off with a final "LicK Out" to decide the evbetual winner....now that could be an event to cherish::::

      Alas, I started a sodding diet in November last year, due to, get this, me having to reduce my BMI for immigration purposes and to satisfy their conditional requirements, bastards !!!
      That being the case, me and my partner (Wife) would still like to come along for the ride, (so to speak ) and promise not to over the food, too much.
      Would this be ok please ?
