    Who else was on SH16 in Auckland today?

    Went out for 'cruise' to Kaukapakapa and on to Wellsford. Saw chickenfunkstar mid-corner, probably going to uni.

    Also saw a later model R6/R1 (03+) in red/black and a large mid 90's gixxer something or rather in red.

    Was also a guy on a cruiser but didnt catch what it was.

    So was anyone out on SH16 on one of those kind of bikes? I was riding a 2001 R6 in blue

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    I was on 16 for a lunch break. didnt get past mt albert but I saw a bunch of strange large (like the sprotsdirt bikes with a hint of goldwing) bikes heading west around 2pm

    + the occasional ussual suspects on that road that dont wave to me the bastards.


    but I assume your talking the country not city at all?

    True. I thought it might have been you. Saw the red/black R1/R6 on my way home at about 4:30pm. Would have been a good day to be on SH16 today with all the nice weather.
