    Talking Akl Thurs Night Ride & Drinks 27th April @ 6.30 **MEETING POINT CHANGED**

    What: A ride up north in da dark finishing with a cold one
    When: Thursday night after work on the 27th April
    Where: Meeting @ MOBIL LINCOLN ROAD Corner of Lincoln and Central Park Drive in Henderson - See attached map for directions
    Why: Because there is more to motorcycling than just talking about it and its a good way to test your headlight!
    Time: Meeting there from 6.30pm departing @ 7pm
    Pace: Open to all (As long as you can ride at least 100kph - not to say that we ride that speed all the time in the dark)
    Qkchk will even have her new baby on the ride........................

    We will be doin that road as mentioned on the last weeks ride (it's a little jem...) but will be finishing up at the Speights Ale House cause the Albany pub cant be bothered to keep the kitchen open til 8pm for us. Their loss.

    - Remember I dont want to see anyone turn up with a tinted/irridium visor on! Any chance to lessen the risks we take in our riding the better! (If you dont have a clear visor, may I suggest buying/borrowing a pair of clear saftey glasses and keep ya tint visor up....)

    - Darkness = Slower speeds (self explained...)

    - I'm doin the rides not for so much the riding itself (very limited with time and what you can do with it) but the social get-together at the Albany pub afterwards. So if you can't make the ride, try and make the pub and meet fellow Kbers! The route will be discussed on the night. For those worried about distance/time the ride will last for approx 1hr and is 70kms long. We start at Lincoln Rd and finish up at Albany.

    Remember this ride is WEATHER PERMITTING - I will post up in the thread if it is postponed due to weather. I will decide on the day and post after 5pm.


    Disclaimer: You participate on this ride at your own risk. I will not be held accountable for anyones actions, to/from and during the ride.. Anyone who is caught endangering others by their actions will be asked to leave the ride and may be refused entry to forthcoming rides!

    I see (cannot see) what ya mean - he's pretty loud even without the use of bright colours and objects

    My bike isnt so Custard as his, seems to be a bit pale next to the Gixxer. So the biarch from up Norfland thought he would be a funny fella and call it a Lemon Tart. Hey at least my bike isnt related to the ZX14 whale! (Now to wait for Quasi disapproval)
