Kapiti Coast Thursday Night Cruise 2009-2010

[Sketchy Snr]

Hard to say which part of Moonshine I "enjoyed" the most... could it have been the impossibly tight corners, the narrowness, the one lane blind briges, the stray bits of loose gravel or the nagging feeling that absolutely anything could be waiting for me around every corner... so much to choose from

:

Would have to agree with you there bud. It was fun even through the rain storm of bugs , they weren't happy just to pelt me but come up the inside of the helmet as well. ( mental note, do not lift visor to let bug out ). Wifey had a laugh when she seen my helmet and said lucky i choose my full face. Great all round ride, cheers all.

Yeah but bugs in the teeth is free protein!!!!

Sighhhhh ....

You buggers I get there at 2 past 7...... 7:02pm and no one to be found, did my fav hill anyway and had a ball, you guys must have cleared out all the bugs for me

Yes it was a special start time of 630pm sharp this time, given the distance and need for extra bug collection time.

However the thing that I really hated is scarred onto my brain... a certain larger individual on a blue trail bike who kicked my arse and then waited at the end of the road with a big shit eating grin. That truly sucked

Hes not larger than life , Colins just cuggely aye Col.

I thought you said "i really hated that" because we came to the end of the road and back on the boring highway again ..... did i misunderstand what you meant ?
I really liked the hessitation at the side roads you did , i thought fuck me , hes takin a detour already and then you changed your mind just as i downshifted ready to follow you.
Whats more , you got in the way lol, i had a trailbike to catch and couldnt .

Hahaha so you were silly enough to lift the visor for the inside visitor too aye .... I did it over Paeak and really regretted it , just by Battle Hill.
