    Great ride today, not too much wind compared to the last WNR's. I think that summit road could be part of a WNR to akaroa, it has some great corners and less traffic.

    What you need flip, to power through that 90k barrier is supply Mrs Flip, or Ted with an oar like the Maori use on the Waka's

    What was the Museum like Flip? Also, where did it sting you?

    Yes, another great ride and I did this nice wee pootle home too with a refreshment stop at the Wheatsheaf as planned. You WNR's might want to consider it sometime .......... when you're not arguing

    Pics later ...

    Woke up early for this ride and bloody well knocked my hand on the table and dislocated my middle finger. Cant use a clutch to save my life at the moment.

    Will definitely have to make the next one though.

    Look like I got pinged for speeding on 2-1-11 at 1051 .... 55kph Sparks Rd between Gainsborough and Lyttleton St.

    Going to get the photo and get it framed.
    Just another leather clad Tinkerbell.

    You're such a hoon with all that power on tap, it's hardly surprising I just shot out to the letter box but no wee surprises for me yet

    Speeding kills Flip, think of all the innocents that you killed that day by going 5kmh? over the limit.

    Also put a pic of the photo up here to so we can all have a laugh.

    I guess I will have to find a way to fit my Fuzzdetector to the front of my 70 year old motorcycle.

    If you were in a group you will be OK.

    Yay I finally stumbled across this topic Retroqueen!! I'll aim to have her on the rd for the 6th Feb... will bring tow rope also Micky's keen, however if 2up pushes it's limits I may need to off load my pillion onto some one rofl!

    I'll give the poor wee bike a prep talk but perhaps we can meet yas at the start then tag along again towards the end, I'm dying to view the Wigram museum again :S
