hmm. i see bikes in town all the time. a couple of R1's and a vtr or two. seems as though theres only 4 people in the immediate area use this site though. bugger.........choppers dont count!..........lol

we might have to hook up with one of the underwoods rides they have one every month and get a good turn out from what i have been told.

[rapid van cleef]

oh yeah. i forgot about that. although, when i have seen them together, there seems to be lots of cruisers n chopper types. i am unsure of the handling capacitiy of those kinda bikes. i would think, having a longer wheel base, that they are not the type of bike to take down the twisties. more like nice long 'cruising' rides. going in a straight gets boroing after a while, even if going quickly. now, i may be completly wrong. the underwood n wilkins rides may in fact be exactly what we could hook into. i ll go see when theyre next ride is.

i did go over the rotomas n back on saturday. was fun. some total arsehole came out of the kawerau exit road onto the road to the rotomas in a knackered old white ute and was driving up the arse of the car in front. then on a left , right, blind left, he pulled out and over took the car in front and went round the outside of him on the oncoming lane going into the blind left. if i had left home maybe 20 mins earlier, i could have been coming round that corner on my way back. what a twat. i will recognise that truck if i see it again and i will report it to the police.

there is some complete twats out there that only think of themselves but the goverment is targeting bikers. I don't know what sort of bikes go on the underwood rides but assume they would have a good variety of bikes and riders.

The Undies rides are fast... You will probably enjoy them Lee.

Steve came to Matawai to meet us ladies coming home from our weekend ride away. We had a good blast home this afternoon, although it was a tad wet through the gorge. Nice dry roads from Opotiki. Us chicks ended up doing over 700 k's for the weekend. It was awesome!

[trailblazer]

well im not into going to fast as i don't have the skill for it so if i do one and the pace is to hot I will just back off. I thought steve wasn't going to meet you girls. Sounds like you girls had a good weekend then.

[BiK3RChiK]

He wasn't going to, but surprised me, which was real nice

We had an awesome time! Got to Taupo on Friday night and stayed at Flashpackers... shame about the MM party over the road that was still raging at 7am! Saturday we rode to Napier, had lunch and continued on to Gisborne for the night. I don't think I'll forget the entertainment of the evening there! Those Gizzy chicks sure know how to party!!

Then yesterday (Sunday) we came home through the Waioweka Gorge. Last point of call the Matata Pub. Only cop we saw pulls up outside the Pub and comes right in to book some fulla who had been coming along the Matata Straights! LOL

Alexandra came too and we had an awesome time. She's doing her restricted today and will hopefully fly through that
