Awesome ride, thanks Quick Chick and Yoshi for bringing up the rear in the 4 wheeled support.

Even managed to keep up with a few of ya on the little 150( in a tail wind on a extreme down hill :-P )

Shame on some 'disgruntled residents' narking to the cops tho.

Looking forward to the next one!!

Well that was my first country ride on the new bike and I must say it

It has instantly added 20-30kmph more corner speed. That thing handles

Apart from pissing and I mean pissing down with oil - prob a simple gasket issue.... the bike feels mint. I'm gonna get it some new tyres, firm up the suspension a notch and I'll be

Nice to see all the old faces and black yoshi's unicorn - sexy piece of machinery that

The ride home was fun - remember people if there's no room to lanesplitt there's always the footpath - or so I heard

So you guys took the motorway to St Lukes huh?? I went straight down Dominion, saw Dover at the Balmoral lights.

Cheers for organising it all QkChk - much appreciated

Well, I know it's great to bag the cops but for once I agree with them........ I think somebody was doing nearly three times the speed limit in one of those 50 zones. Dunno who though ......

Perhaps next time we should be more cautious. Just so that we don't need the

Mint ride though - don't let the fuzzers put you off. I think half the reason was they wanted to have a perv at the bikes.

**Qkchk:Me** · 27th October 2005, 21:21

And who was to think we could be a bunch of trouble makers!!? Thankyou everyone who turned up and had a good time, including the police! (Not)

Bloody good turn-out counted 28 bikes, not bad for a mid-week spin

Was nice to see the regulars and some new faces, sorry to the guys that I never got a chance to talk to - maybe next time.....

I hope the guy who binned on Old North Road is ok and hasn't been put off our blats. Hey Wonko, did you guys follow the wrong bike and get lost?

I don't know about that crazy bastard in the Godzilla who would light up the whole road when he de-accelerated (with a 6inch exhaust) - bloody cage drivers

but I knew he was giving the Litre bikes a run for their money......

Thanks again and I hope everyone had a goodtime and I look forward to receiving feedback on what we can do to improve (less stops - I'm working on that!) the ride....... PS I do have more alternative route available..

See you all on Yoshi's Misery Tour on Sunday!!

Ahh.. great ride, some new roads towards the end I had not been on which I enjoyed.

Horse people... wtf.
Random crazy man who I went past before he came out... wtf.

Where were the piggies at? Was that after Gareth and me buggered off to go try find his wallet?

Nice to see yoshi be a little different and bring that nice r33 along

Good to re-meet other riders and meet some new ones.
Frosty you psycho O_o get that rear wheel checked out, it was all over the place mate!
