Fantastic photos...

Ok now can someone tell us why someone was washing their bike tyre and rear wheel with the car window washer thingee...???

I use that brush thingee to wash my helmet visor or car windows...
NOT to wash a bike tyre or rear wheel.

The poor buggar who went to use the brush next on the helmet visor or car window.. YUK.

Thanks for some great photos there BD & MagicM! It helps us *slackers* who weren't there get an impression of the ride.

Wow, is that Hayabusa in that pic got a huge dent on the side or is it just the paint job or light that makes it look that way?

Glad you all had a good'un!

awsome ride. Was a bit slippery but what ya gonna do. Had great fun playing catchup. Got after letting everyone passed me and roo waited at the miranda turn off for like ages and ages cause i thought superdave was coming then we buggered off. Set a good pace and managed to catch the tailenders. So at the miranda onto SH2 turnoff i set about waiting for big dave.....and waited.........and waited. Finally another set of bikers came along and they said he was taking pics back there so i waited some more......... he never came. So i decided (even though i was about 10-15 mins behind) to try catch you lot through the hanua's.....

Probably went a bit faster than i should have but when i reached clevedon JSG said i had missed you lot by like 1 minute or so. So i waited around a bit and kittyhawk showed up. went over scenic drive .... then went back over and over again for the hell of it.... i noticed i wasn't getting good straight line traction. So after a bit of tyre inspection i saw that it had worn straight through to the steel belt...hmmmmm... must have been the ride to clevedon cause my bike kept leaving the ground on every bump .

But yeh i had fun and will do it again soon...... well i will have a new rear tyer that will need scrubbing in

I once had a dog with one leg, it ran the races and won until it grew wings and flew to save a princess and live happily ever after, on its newly colonised home on uranus.

So at the miranda onto SH2 turnoff i set about waiting for big dave.....and waited.........and waited.

Ahh sorry - i waited and waited for the main group to ride by and they never came. saw a few but....then I went back to the fisho just to check.

Then I headed up through the Hunuas as discussed - where i caught up to a mufti cop car, so i took the turn off to Ramarama and cruised the freeway.

We'll do the wheelie shots next time.
