Sounds like there will be fewer bikes this time. The night riding must really scare people!

Ive found that you cant go off the ride registers or by who's posted in the threads........ there are plenty of 'lurkers' out there who just turn up on the day (or night in this case......)

JSG, I don't mind if you come along, someone needs to do TEC

Yes its all on.

Supposed to be raining this arvo, but looking out my window these plenty of blue and that aint rain!

I might be TEC tonight yet, doubin Custard on his bike.......... see who turns up first.

Awesome.

According to the rain radar (http://www.metservice.co.nz/default/...?alias=akradar) there is absoloutely nothing showing.

Hope like fuck the weekend is clear, I'm getting withdrawl symptoms. I need my northland road fix.

I love night riding in the country with a full moon and the stars glowing.

Just as good as any sunny day in my opinion.

See you lot soon.

I remember my last night coro loop - was awesome fun. Will be keen to do it again. I'll try an organise a ride sometime.

On the road again, see you in a tick or two

**Zed** · 13th April 2006, 22:05

Another goodun tks Qkchk & Custard!

Good sized group (about 12 i think?), one of the better groups I found, all stayed within about 30 secs of eachother from TEC to the lead rider. Always a challenge along those dark open roads, bit of rain kept us all (well most of us) honest...

Good to see Skelstar made it from Wellytown too, hope you made it to your sisters in one piece after being escorted by lady Keystone!

See ya's on the next one.

**Lazy7** · 13th April 2006, 22:09

was a good ride. surprisingly enough.

Thanks guys for the helping hand at the unscheduled pitstop. I forgot to say at the time but really appreciated it.

Was good riding with you guys tonight

Zed that wh**l*e you pulled inbetween us while leaving the pub - feck I wish I can ride like that one day.- Serious respect

Glad to see everyone went home in one piece.

The actual ride was utter shit for some reason, for me at least.

I need a new chain and a better visor and probably a new bike while I'm at it, but I already knew that am doing something about it.

Thanks for the company at the pub, good to see you all again.

How good are you mechanically?? I know of a CBR250 for sale - it may need some work for about $1500.

It's done 88,000ks though. But for the money you save you could repair it and make it mint slowly.
