....She mentioned 150......

ORLY, possibly she didn't see it at a couple of points I saw his bike in my rear mirror, given the pace I was setting on the way home until I saw a commodore that looked a little sus.

You young man are a bucket racer in the making!You describe exactly how we ride the wee bikes on the track....

Go the mighty FXRs!!!

Don't encourage him. Lexy needs that bike for a wee while longer.

That was me catching up. I was setting the pace in the group catching up to you.

If he was speeding it was my fault.

Lexy's bike is safe for a wee while. I cant afford a jacket or pants to race in, nor can I afford to crash in my helmet.

Went to the warehouse at northwood to pick up some final supplies. Duh, I tell ya a mighty 240+kg bike laying on ya leg sucks. I for some stupid reason thought I had put the side stand down. It later appeared after the bike reached it's "you aint gunna stop me" moment, that I had not.

Must be something about that shop, I did exactly the same thing there a while back, bent clutch lever and broken indicator and very red face at providing amusement to the staff outside having a smoke.

Merry Xmas everybody & safe travels on your holidays.

Only thing worse is a 340kg motorcycle on your leg.

I was speeding, just a bit on the way home.

[Flip]

Life is good when I can ride......

Thanks, it's great to introduce some body new to riding. I did however feel a bit old, fat and grey at the time.

I really enjoyed the ride last night, one of the most enjoyable rides I have done in ages. It was really great to see soo many riders out so close the Christmas. Crowe wants to go to Riverton next week for a few days so I might not be around wed but if I am in town I will be be there for the last WNR of 09.

[laRIKin]

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! Wishing you all a great day and safe riding!

And to you are yours and to everyone else.
Keep the rubber side down and play safe in the crazy season.

First WNR I've been on and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Very scary following some learners over Dyers Pass though. I thought I was going to have a front row seat to a head on several times.

Yes... allways been my concern, hence why I dont often ride on the WNR, to many chiefs that have thier own opion of "how to ride" and to many learners. Its happened before and it will happen again, but I guess ya have to learn some how be it the hard way or easier.

[Retroqueen]

It later appeared after the bike reached it's "you aint gunna stop me" moment, that I had not. No damage, apart from breaking the end off the clutch lever, the consolation of those pazzo levers is that the breaking point on them works. whew!!! lol.

Well your just lucky your not in a moon boot!!!!!! That's almost exactly how my foot got broke!!! Lucky Lucky

Merry Christmas everyone !!!

No excuse for feeling that way when your taking a pretty wee thing like you had on the back of your bike for a ride.

Does your girlfriend know you thought she was "pretty"?

Rest assured the last time I saw one of those new riders they were much more confident and smoother, they had the basic idea of the apex, had slowed down a lot in their rush to get everything done and were riding so much smoother.

Ah D one day I am going to check your genetics to see if there is some relationship to bloody Katman in there. Yeap you are right there are so many ways to achieve the end result we all want and that is a live rider, not a bent or broken cager, I have said it before and I will say it again I believe you could offer so much knowledge to new riders, what I show a guy that works for me and what you might show them could be two completely different ways to achieve the end result, one method might suit a rider better than the other but they will never know th options available to them.

It often harder to put into words how we do what we do than it is to just get out and do it.

Now if we could convince some of the Mainland guys or any other such programme to come along it could be a win-win as the new guys might know where to go to get the tuition and the educators might get students.
