CHCH Riders- Ride to Akaroa for roks.

[Biff]

Can't do those dates either mate sorry.

I'm being sentenced on the Sat, and the Fri I'll be having my last beer as a free man.

[FlyingDutchMan]

Top speed on mine is 180, I could try.

The speed limiter does work on your bike

[roks]

Just an idea and cause its a valid reason, Im thinking of a ride to akaroa so we can all get to know roks :spudwave: and get out on the road. Also I will have the cast off and I need a ride

Im thinking an evening (Im working) on Friday Jan 27th or Saturday Jan 28th. Let me know your general interest and I can plan from there.

Ride safe

Oh gosh a ride would be great!! Either day would suit me, probably Saturdy so I have Sunday to recover

[sefer]

Hey, I could be keen. I've been meaning to meet some CHCH KBers for a while.

All comes down to whether I'm actually up and running by then though. I'm hoping my bike will be done by early next week at the latest, but it'll depend on how my part hunt goes...

[bigbadwolf]

sounds like fun! i'm up for a nice big ride, just depends on whether i have a bike by then...

[onearmedbandit]

Working, unless it's an evening ride. In which case I'll probably magically get that day off, go out to Ruapuna and be too knackered to go. Usual story then....

[miSTa]

Could be keen on Saturday morning. I mentioned to my daughter this morning that we should go for a ride on Friday but Saturday would be fine if she is keen.

Would probably need to be back by 2:00 - 2:30.

Let you know asap, if so I'll be taking it easy.

Ride safe

Well... thats the Woodstock Rally weekend, so sorry Roks/Sniper but weather permiting I'll be on the coast, if its wet over there then yeah I'll be in :spudbn:

[Sniper]

Well I might still plan on one of those dates and let ya 'all know when I get back from masterton.

[Transalper]

If you ride on the Friday anytime after 1pm I'll proberbly be in otherwise on Saturday I may be heading to Woodstock.
This coming weekend would have been better, i have most of Friday and all weekend free this week.

[miSTa]

I thought it was this coming weekend

Not sure about next weekend.

80!!! WTF, you want a tow

Only if it broke down.

And 180 should be the min speed, IMO....girly girls and this 80-120 crap

You're lucky enough to be in a position to afford a bike capable of such speeds and feel comfortable at it. Speeding tickets are obviously not of concern.

80 km/h ?, i would say add atleast another 40 km/h on top of that for miniuim speed

Can't do those speeds and already pay too much tax.

Anywhoo, no Im not keen on 80? Why 80?

Can't afford leathers so prefer slower speeds encase of a spill.
Bike hasn't been out of city limits for 4 years, don't want to suddenly stress it too much and have an unaffordable break down.

Back by 9pm, so it should still be light.

Prefer to be back in town by 6pm.

[JWALKER]

is 80 km/h max speed you want to be doing?

[JWALKER]

i like the idea of a staurday ride too

[Aaron]

Count me in if that's cool.

Have not met roks or sefer (I don't think). A nice ride in the cool evening weather would be nice. Was going over anyway to recce the Bruce Apartments, anyone know where they are in Akaroa?

Going out via Gebbies pass, or returning that way? Might be the small bike, but the straights out through Hawsel get a bit dull after a while.

Hmm... if I'm feeling crazy might trade in the GSX on the '04 zx10 at Norjos', could use it as a 'run in' trip (think there's time to sit my full licence test by Saturday?)
