if it turns out alright you should meet us at the takas or lake ferry later on, just shoot down your side

I may be extending my ride a little up Hawkes Bay way to pick up some new kit but, as I said to the Meanster....only if my arse isn't too sore

Have a good one guys. I'd love to join in but I've just had a 6 day week of 6.30 starts and I NEED a sleep in. Ride safe!

So it has began the first card picked up........4 more to go and a few more miles

The day started out with bumping into people you know"if you know what I mean" One being a dodgey looking character on a RF900 making his way to the Gladdy...we get a Message at 8:45 from monnie (we in otaki)guest the ashhurst crowd(YOD,MEANIE,MONNIE) left on time LATE nothing new there but they did arrive in Upper hutt just after 9:30,So all good there too make the 10am departure to featherstone too pick a local rappa lad Ken,over the taka's and on the down there was a group of bike's parked up,one down Damm,so did a quick cheak incase Ken had decided to ride up and meet us,No not him......works out the rider had clipped a barrier and opened his leg up(hope your ok who ever you are)........Arriving in Featherston and ken is waiting super right quick catch-up and off down the western access too lake Ferry which was a super ride and enjoyed by all a quick draw of the cards and its funny how they can play out don't fink the young lass understood the meaning of shuffle the cards....with all being the same suit and all in numerical order...

Then it was suggested we go too the gladdy for lunch,as its an old stomping grown and work place so up to cape pope and tablelands the roads were great and pace was on that all enjoyed arriving at the Gladdy ,I spot that dodgey character on the RF900,along with alot of other bikes parked outside always has been a bike destination and great too see it still is.....do the luch order and head out the back where the Wgtn group were....we chatted and good too see more old faces that haven't been seen for a while,the food despite being awhile was awesome and we weren't in any rush so it didn't matter(ok YOD was in a rush something about new gear)

After Lunch we made our way back too Masterton in true biker fasion the long and twisty way,and it was along that way Yod attempted to shunt "the Dog" arriving in Masterton for fuel too see Sarge and Owl waiting for us so time too talk shite and plan our next leg through too Woodville,back roads hell yeah

Ken leading the ride actually he led the whole way from featherston which was good its his local roads and the rest of us just enjoyed the ride......getting too woodville we say goodbye's too Yod who was heading onto to Napier for goodies Honestly that lad( is like a kid in a candy store )

and the rest off us headed back to the Ashhurst inn for a well deserved coffee by some coke by others etc

We had a super day with great roads and weather and most of all Awesome People

and only

5 SLEEPS UNTIL THE NEXT LEG
