    New to the road-riding scene (CjNarcis)

    Morning all

    I'm Carlos Thrasy (22 y.o) of Kiwi/English/Greek decent living on Auckland's North Shore (Milford).

    I recently purchase my first Road Bike the Naked Hyosung 250 and have since set out to find like-minded weekend riders to share the experience. In case you're interested, I manage rental properties in Mt Albert for an independent Real Estate Agency.

    If you're free to chat or meet up for a weekend ride let me know, I'm easy to get along with and won't brandish my own opinion like it's fact

    Thanks for reading

    Carlos Thrasy

    Akzle is it? Where exactly do you suppose I'm making it to? I hadn't expected a hearty welcome from the site donors but a simple hello from like I said, like-minded people.

    Thanks for making yourself known

    Hello and welcome , auckland has SASS and NASS which are street skills thingos I think are held in good regard for newbies looking to become proficient in riding and meet like minded people...

    Also, learn about the ignore list and you'll make it just fine

    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Welcome

    NASS and SASS stand for north (or south) auckland street skills.

    just do a search on either here on KB

    Welcome along, there are one or two other KB based riding outfits who ride regularly ( OK) so not always regularly but there is also the SATNR, who ride from the BP On the Southern Motorway by Papakura on a Thursday ( Dur) night . Meet up 6-630. ride off 7pm, do about 1-200 K's depending , end up at a nice worm hostliiery somewhere talk shit and ride home.
    pace is fair to muddling but any newbies are slotted in in front of our TEC who stays with em for the whole ride, many who now ride around Dorkland have started their group riding with us.
    Who'd ever have thought that sane people would recommend you ignore ol Akzle.
