Hey bro, I don't know about being fast but I will come along tomorrow.

**NhuanH** · 3rd January 2004, 19:30

i'll try and make it along to my 2nd KB ride. Hopefully better than the first: was reasonably fast until I came to a sudden stop...

What's the route plan?

**Coldkiwi** · 3rd January 2004, 21:04

bro.. i'm dead keen but i'll be dishing up coffee at my church in Mt Eden till 1:30. I'm in the zone too after some 600km of cruise/fanging in the last week (have new tyres-will thrash!). let me know if you're plotting another one this week.. shoot round coromandel?
hope you have a wicked ride (could thr weather be any better?) but don't go crashing ya bike again!

I remember that fated ride.....there were a shit load of bikes that day...and as I recall I think you were wearing jeans.

I was lucky enuf to be first on the road - so didn't see the carnage - although the graphic description KK gave us after he came through to Kaiaua was enuf. A group of nigh on 20+ riders was quickly shot down to 7.

I went for a ride to Raglan today and there was so much heat that the whole road was covered in melted tar.

It would have been nicer with a bit more clouds. Maybe I am being a bit too fussy here so I should just stop bitchin and have fun anyways.

P.S. Andrew dosen't bin it THAT often. He is a f'ing talented rider.

I think CK was Referring to Nuanh who had a nice altercation with the front of a late model korean car.

I know, I'm just being a cheeky prick! he showed me the way up Hunua on his CBR with 350cc less than me so I know he's on to it.. although perhaps slightly mentally unstable

I agree about the tar. The mangawhai to waipu road was practically fully molten yesterday. maybe coromandel is the best bet for a ride tomorrow then if a route hasn't been picked already (not that i can join in). The roads there seem to hold the heat better before breaking up from what i've seen, but then, I don't do so many Km's.

as for the driveway gybe.... I wasn't actually IN the driveway when it went for a spin.

anyway... no more stupid cold tyre disasters for me now that I'm properly shod. those diablo corsas didn't even give a hint of movement yesterday on anything other than melted tar. loads of confidence for me! woohoo!

cheers

**NhuanH** · 4th January 2004, 18:37

thanks for jacking it up andy1. And many thanks to your mate John and the rest of the crew for putting up with my slow ass.

750Y, it was a touch of deja vu: Gix#1 (and all other bikes for that matter) ahead of me, strangely familiar...at least I rode my bike back from this KB jaunt!
