250 get into it

**Jay widda 150** · 21st July 2005, 21:04

heya guys.

I gotta say that as one of the founding members of club 250 down here in welly that 250 rides are really good for a number of reasons:

building confidence - good for learners
building experience - we can ALL use that
learning about your bike
" " other peoples bikes
meeting new people
getting to know uncommon roads
adjusting to surface conditions
riding in groups is safer
and i could go on ( as if i havent allready)

I ask that as many people go as possible.
if anyone in welly is up for it how about a random date and we'll go from there.

for you jaffas i say go for it and drag your mates along it aint stupid its bloody fun (welly ones were anyway)
and remember bike is desinged to stay on two wheels so NO SHOWING OFF!!

C yas on the road

Mate it's probably gonna take methe better part of a year to get my 250 running again. Need to replace the engine, indicators, gas tank, handle bars and then get the whole thing VINed, registerd and WOFed.

And you still havn't changed that avatar.

Wrecked it them moved onto a bigger one and just havn't fixed it up yet. Only even fixing it so that members of my family and a few friends can use it to learn to ride. Otherwise I would be disassembeling it to chop it out and make a 250 chopper. Done the ride to wellington before down SH1, itchin to try a different route that's less boring and longer.Might even go the scenic route and head north first.

Jay...put up a meeting thread and I'll say yes and come along - last weekend of August.

Trouble is: I don't like riding with a hangover...and I have limited self-control with a bottle of vodka (or red wine!).

I'll probably be along though - hopefully with my restricted licence by then.
