Hi Knight,

I may be up for a ride on the Monday (back to work Tuesday). I've got a mate who has just got himself a 250 bandit. He is also looking to get out. I'll know nearer the time and want keep an eye on the weather. Neither hill is good in the wet. Haven't tackled P'kak on the bike yet. Not comfortable on that road even in the cage due to the number of cages that cross the centre line. Been almost taken out a few times along there.
I'll PM you nearer the time once I know what I'm doing.

sorry dude can't do Monday something has come up that will require my time on monday

I've gone right off the Paekakariki Hill, just plain aint much fun anymore.

Pshhh - its a most entertaining bit of road - with lots of little things to keep you awake

I am off work all next week as well & weather permitting and all other jobs around the house done(packing the house ready for big move) will be in for a ride, prefer something that will take a bit longer than piecock hill tho. If you are keen pm me. there will be myself & the wife so would like to take both 636's Castle point is a nice day ride if you add in a few back roads

Piekok hill is a great road!
It will only hurt you if you let it.

What that man said.

Just leave yourself plenty of room. Seriously

yep sounds like a great idea. I have no idea where to go so will just follow you 2 hopefully I can keep up with yous. what about Tuesday?

[madboy]

So did you figure out where castlepoint is? Cos if you didn't it's up to Masterton and turn right. There's the fun way to get there, and there's also the really long, straight, boring and ticketable way to get there.

there's also the really long, straight, boring and ticketable way to get there.

Ah but its not that boring when your bike weighs 100kilos and there's high winds...

Just like how the Paekak Hill gets boring when yer bike weighs 233kg dry. Wind or no wind, it's like threading a needle with anchor rope.

[knight rider]

so what day would suit people? I prefer Tuesday but also have Wednesday & Thursday off aswell also a meeting place as I'm in Porirua so if anyone out this ways wants to ride in together to meet up with the rest of the group that would be good

[poorbastard]

Tuesday sounds good dont have work that nite but can work around other days as well.

[knight rider]

where do people wana meet & when? & where lol

[blacksheep]

is diesel kinda like a rainbow colour in the middle of the road? only been riding 5 months so am still learning these things so any advice is much appreciated. Thanks

aye your right about that and watch out on roundabouts especially after a long period of dry weather,it brings all of that sort of crap to the surface

[knight rider]

I'm going up pie cook hill at 2pm so if anyone wants to jon in I'll be at mobil paramata at 2pm leaving at 2:10pm. If someone wants to go for a ride somewhere else after that then I'm keen. didn't need to work today after all wooho
