Leaving the country at the end of the month mate! You gotta come along to more SASS sessions.

I'm aiming to make it to tomorrow as well as one more week perhaps, but that may be my last for a wee while.

[kiwi-on-wheels]

Hoping to be there all things going well with work... massive contract gone to s**t and we are just over 2 weeks in... yeeaahh not pretty.

In that sence, maybe i need to go for a good blat hahaha

Hopefully the weather comes right, ment to be a mess tomorrow

[nzspokes]

On that thought, would it be better to run tyres slightly lower in pressure during the cold, wet winter months?

I wouldn't IMO. As long as you are on good tyres they are designed for rain. We can chat about this tonight.

Dayum! Yeah, it's been crazy full on since last year for me...

Must make it this or next week to catch up with you before you're off to break some foreign girls' hearts!

I have no idea how I'm gonna get any chocolate sauce hearts on my coffee now once I'm bikeless over there for a few months.

Remember to bring warm gear as it will be starting to get cold in the country.

I must invest in some hand guards. Or cut up a milk bottle.

Tomorrow before we go we will have a little chat about lines and the 2 second rule.

Or invest in a concrete sandwich? Hehe

Weird how it's felt warmer lately actually. That cold snap that went up the country last month was an eye opener but Rob is right, definitely chillier the further out you get from the city.

When I was younger I preferred lines,
now I am older and wiser I prefer curves, can we talk about curves?

I'm a fan of curves myself and always up to talk about em, but I think we might alienate some of the female members of SASS.

Unless we're not talking about the same thing...

I reckon Spokes should of cut an orange traffic cone in half and fix it on as hi-vis hand guards.

Thats a legit idea.

3 lights at the front of his bike + hivis handguards?

The making of the next death star in our midst?

Hard to find a replacement for that title... Maybe

Even Sis didn't notice there was 5 lights the other week AWESOME
Just as well I didnt get the lights I ordered, there would be no one who could see.

Bikeless not CHAPLESS

could be, everyone else talks about corners - there are corners on a cube sharp corners, I like curves better
Maybe you are thinking of y=x^4-x^2 type curves or splines - anyway see you next week .... maybe... not sure just yet - waiting for my orders


NZSPOKES: I wouldn't IMO. As long as you are on good tyres they are designed for rain. We can chat about this tonight

The tyres maybe designed to get rid of water, but I was thinking about the COLD - the small bikes tyres just don't WARM up in the winter as I remember from last year

Your bigger/heavier bikes would be no problem, just need to check tyre temp when you get home tonight I guess

Higher Tyre temp more GRIP - is my thinking esp for lighter bikes and lightweight riders

Anyone head out last night? Wasn't feeling too flash so I just went home and had an early one.

Hopefully I'll make it next week, which might be my last..

Sweet, be good to go for a ride. If it turns out I'm bikeless by then I might just show up to the start or the pub in ma cage.

Not actually leaving the country until the end of the month.

Plenty of spare pillion seats.

I probably weigh a bit more than your usual pillion though..

But perhaps I'd take someone up on that. Only pillioned once before and it scared the shit outta me.
