gorgeous sunset, hope you all had a fantastic ride............ hope my little 225 hasn't gone boom

Fantastic ride tonight...everything just seemed to click together with the riding and made things much more enjoyable. Ride back was the best I have ridden to date especially over Dyers Pass which just seemed to come and go in the blink of an eye. Thanks to all those that have helped and supported during 2 or 3 weeks of losing confidence. Shit! I remembered why I started riding again tonight.

Ya seemed nice and smooth tonite, Dyers was mint on the way back

Hope you guys have a great and safe ride!!

We all did trust me.
Lite traffic not many trucks there and we only had to over take a few on the way home.
All most had the roads to our self's.
Weather was good, the company was good and food at the stop was top's.

So good in fact we plan to do it again real soon.

As we rode more than we stopped, I only could take a few pic's.

Ahhh what a fun trip, nice pace kept by all and some good practice at night riding for a couple of people that have not done much of it before. Actually it was a good refresher for all of us i think. Was a fun sight looking back in the mirrors to see a string of headlights blasting along through the sweeping foothills of the kaikora ranges... even the few truck drivers we met moved over and gave us the "all clear" whenever we came up to them.

Glad everyone on the WNR had fun as well.

Yip was a great ride.
Hopefully next time I dont need an escort home!!!
Plus side at least I got home.

Time to get into the garage to do some running repairs before going to work.

jealous much

[been_there]

also - cheeky comments, semi in-jest; applies specifically to the long-run crew but also to the regulars - make sure you've got the basics ... spare lights (esp headlight), fuses, tyre repair kit (Petra!), torch so you can use them, hazard triangle or flashers, first aid kit if you feel particularly responsible...

You should of said clutch cable as well!!!!!

[Hey wait for me!]

Great ride last night! Good to see new faces and bikes. Its such a great little spot out there to enjoy a bevy and a good view and talk about bullshit and jelly beans oh and bikes! Where to next week???

Yo Been there, sorry to hear about your cluth cable!! suck! Not really the sort of thing you're expecting to go on ya really?!

Wasn't expecting it to go so soon. No biggy. Cable is in at Just Motorcycles now.

LOL - Compression on these babies, dont like push starting in second. Had to do a combo of starter/push....
It felt like I was in the movie speed where I couldn't slow down too much... Thanks to laRIKin and Longwheely for the escort home.
