Kaipara 200 Kiwi Rider ADV Ride

[Rosie]

I have had two emails from the organisers in the last 24h, both containing useful information
They are obviously more organised than me, I'm not packed and my bike doesn't have forks on it
Then I just need to program Chris's place into my GPS. And figure out how to attach the GPS to the bike
Maybe I'll sellotape it to the inside of my routesheet holder If I remember to get that back off Nic

So what's Stretch riding then? .

Hopefully not anything with much hp or knobs on the back tyre as he owes me a bloody good roosting after I inadvertently but comprehensively plastered him with mud on the Lost Weekend ride

[QUOTE=reddie;1130190708]God some people complain! Just spent the last 20 or so minutes reading.... I sent in my money and waited.

Please be assured that my Original QUESTION was not a complaint, not a critisim, but merely a question. If some on here choose to read it as anything else but a question, thats your problem, not mine. Equally, if some here choose to accept mediocricy, then that to is your problem, not mine.

Unconscious humour - complaining about mediocrity and spelling it incorrectly

I'f you'd be keen to ride it, I still have my small tank. I could put that on my bike and let you use my R100 tank.

So what's Stretch riding then? The Cagiva is not exactly a behemoth. Having said that, I know he would try to get a Munch Mammut through there and probably manage to do it.

Nah - I've put a new tyre on the 950 and I got roosting on my mind...

Oh yeah, typical...stoning to death due to typing error, guess one can only hope your riding skills match your impeccable typing skills.

Or he uses a browser with a built in spell-check.

And how are my typing or riding skills relevant?
You were the one inferring that the ride organisers were mediocre.
Why don't you quit whilst you're behind?


And Nordie is correct - I use a spell check.

You know, I tried to explain that I was not criticizing anyone, nor was I complaining. But for the life of me, you just dont seem to get. You chose to read my question as an insult wich has lead to this childlike exchange of posts.
Everyone here, me included has a right to an opinion as well as a right to question, even if you might think its incorrect.

Get over yourself mate, if you need to speak to me personaly, txt me on my tel number provided in my profile, and we can settle this in a proper matter without having to resort to this to and fro posting and clogging the thread with what I would consider crap.

Oh, and I dont use spell check...

Oh please, don't make me laugh any more

In the context of this thread, posting something like:

Equally, if some here choose to accept mediocricy, then that to is your problem, not mine.

Is usually only going to make you look like a pompous twat.
But saying it whilst misspelling the word mediocrity?
Priceless.

There's nowt to sort.
You should have had an information sheet by now, and the route sheets will be available on Friday (on perforated paper!).
