**Random** · 7th October 2005, 06:51

A couple of times midweek when I have been on my way to Raglin on the back road from Tuakau, I have seen a blue R6 have tried to catch this guy, no luck, he must know the road pretty well, he passed me in some twisty bit in the middle of nowhere and I could not catch him after that( not a slow rider myself) he was in blue and white leathers.

If your on this site man, would you be keen to hook up for a ride ?, you must know the road pretty well !, would be cool to ride with you. send me a message.

That would be Firefight. He knows that road better than anyone. Send him a PM and I'm sure he'll be happy for you to ride with him.

Definately Firefight, send him a PM and he will hook up for a ride... He knows SH22 the best out of anyone in the world... You need to come on some KB rides to see some real riders (aye Dave

hehehe)

I know he has names for the corners! just ask him about Vladi's* corner! he was even going to put up a sign!

But I think the story he tells beats any sign

* what a fuckin great save that was

Ride safe guys, remember, the road isn't a racetrack.

Yes, your right Sniper,well

good advice, one of the reasons I like this road , plenty of fun without needing the high topspeeds that some prefer to ride at.

And Ricky, got your pm and have replied with my cell #,, nice bike you have there,I think it was you I passed about two weeks ago, nothing wrong with your pace, as you see not a lot of long straight bits on 22, I guess you would be able to wind it up a bit between Whatawhata and Rags, just be aware of Mr

he/she like that bit of road, also lots of legal fun to be had on the devi(Hill).

just a thought, knowing the road well does not mean a lot, skill is what counts, never forget the day Jimmy(WT) rode it for the first time EVER, left everyone for dead, Just skill, talent and some big balls, not bad for a skinny cunt from wellytown..
