    hmmm, where do I begin..... Since my encounter with the wind I have only been on the motorway once, that was on a perfect day. Secondly, I don't like you.
    Nah my bikes just not up to it. I need to get a decent rear tyre and tomoro it is going in to have my handle bar welded straight (its a bitch trying to turn hard right atm) and some wiring stuff done, my horn doesn't work nor do either of my headlights. Maybe next year sometime MAYBE!
    Oh yeah one more thing, Im not fast enough!!!

    Yeah, cos that Comet 250 at the back is a friggin rocket ship - that mad bastard hits the takas, drops the knee down and farks off into the distance!

    In all seriousness, confidence, girl, confidence. Fear is overrated (says he who can't get his knee down!). You own the bike, not the other way around!

    Unfortunately I suffer from a bad case of ego-itis, I hate lagging behind and do my best to keep up, thats when my concentration goes and then I start to panick which in turn cause me to crash. But your right confidence is what I lack and I know I aint getting it by not coming along but I have to be sensible about it. I know that my bike aint "safe" on long rides yet and when it is then I shall start pushing myself to get out there.

    You're just jealous your nuts don't get parted when you stand up straight.

    Str8 - honest, mate, it's an all speeds ride. So long as you can hack 100k on the mway you won't get left behind. And it's pretty social, no one is in a hurry to get anywhere, we all wait (or get waited for). Appreciate the safety points though, safety is kinda important!

    Well I'll see how long it takes to get my bike sorted, if I win Lotto then it won't take long at all! And no promises but I MAY come along one night.

    Crazylittleshit is up that way too. Not near a cul-de-sac though. And I'm down south Karori. Prob see each other on the road a bit.

    LSS I asked Str8 Jacket how her wrist was after SHE ran into a herd of cows! (Dumass)
    So, V lady how's your bike and wrist coming along?

    The missus has been dropping me off in the mornings (and pickin' me up) cos I haven't got the D.O.B back on the road yet, an' we just shoot down Birdwood (next to the park) at about 1/4 to 8. I've seen a couple of bikers along there though.

    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    Not too bad - still a bit sore when I'm picking up heavy stuff but hopefully ok enough to pull in the clutch. The issue is sorting the bike cause that's the thing that's the main prob at the mo - I live 3ks from a bus stop so I need my bike!

    (Crazylittleshit would be a Birdwood St regular too - he's on a silver 636.)
