    oh well SB.. you missed out on a good ride today, went out SH30 to Rotorua then Te Puke and to Tauranga. 240km all up, some good cruising with the occasional fast passes.
    been scoping out for next weekend so hopefully its going to be fine.
    yeah... sorry bro, i thought that ment miles 'n hour.

    Will hopefully see you guys in the Wairarapa. If you guys are leaving Caltex at 1030 and headed to Martinborough, I guess you'll be in Martinborough around 1130.

    How about we make a second rendevouz point in Martinborough for 1130ish outside flying fish. I'm riding to Wild Oats at 0930 with two others. Will see you guys in Martinborough. Then onto the good stuff!!!

    Catch you guys later on.......

    Might see some of you guys/guyesses there.

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.

    Awesome Weekend

    Guys, FANTASTIC ride today. Despite Jonty and I loosing the main group in Martinborough (I know!) and then Simon (handle?) and I taking the wrong turn on the Water Tower route it was a very successful trip.

    The Wild Oaks owner was a trooper giving free sausage rolls and helmet visor cleaning stuff too. I think he wants our custom . The traffic on the Takas was shite once again

    Thanks all.

    Would look at it closer to Sunday, but just something for me to keep in mind.
    Just got some new tyres, so need to scuff em in all the way to the edges
    I think I should win an award, for getting lost twice.

    But I had an adventure!

    GREAT DAY, good to see all have enjoying themselves.
    Well done Sparkybills for turning up....good to see you out of work hours.
    YAAAHH Str8 Jacket for mustering the courage and comming out today, those pics are of her new steed...go girl...ring ding ding.
    We stopped at the "crash site" to see if the post was doing ok after all it's been through.

    Great to see that although Deano's had the Repsol for almost a month, he still can't stop looking at it.

    Pipe down Uncle B!
    (Oh I've just realised - Uncles give you pressies at Christmas time!!! Remember that black CBR at Motomart that we were talking about.....)


    Once again.... another awesome ride! Apart from loosing Limbitwimetc... and Skelstar who did a tiki-tour of the back, backroads of the Watertower road (and also all you other lot at Martinborough). And yeah - good to see you finally out riding with the crew again SB! Yay - Str8! The, ahem... "race replica" is a beaut!!!

    I found it ended on a bit of a depressing note though - the Kaitokes are absolutely BUTCHERED and because on the way in I was trying to make record time to get to Martinborough to meet up I never noticed. On the way back I rode past one of my favourite bits on the whole Rimutaka/Kaitoke ride (that passing lane heading up the hill if you're going south just after the downhill right then left handers and ending just before the infamous "ball-breaker") and it was shoved aside behind a few bushes by the new straight, sterile, "designed-to-go-200kmph-just-so-we-can-police-it" bit of super-highway! In all seriousness it was actually quite sad.
