Quick Ride to Kaiaua from Botany Downs

**beyond** · 25th June 2006, 18:45

Good catching up with you guys briefly at Kaiau fush and chup shop.

Got my front tyre all scrubbed in nicely and the trip back on my own was fun as the roads had dried considerably. Awesome day. Would have been a fantastic day to have done the Coro loop.

Some nice hardware there too. Like the new GSXR750 and lucky you Rayza with a brand spanking new GSXR1000. Go easy on it mate and hang over the front to keep the wheel down aye?

Couldn't stay with the house on Open Home today but had to get that new front donut scrubbed while the weathers fine.

Cheers.

Yeah... thought you were going to stop for a chat!! Next time!!

SO I hope Markauckland got home OK.... After leaving you guys at Clevedon met up with another mate and ended up doing the Kaiaua loop in reverse. Met MarcAuckland at Kaiaua FnC so probably just missed you guys and Beyond.

SOrry to hear about the hole in radiator Rayza... Thats one nice bike, hope it's fixed SOON.

**skidMark** · 26th June 2006, 17:40

yer the bike cutout and i couldn't get it started again cus it was still stone cold.... put the choke on wound her for a few seconds then she fired up.

Nay, not me either. Not allowed out at night on the bike much. ie without the family! Hope you enjoyed the ride back from Kaiaua!

ha..... ha..... ha

You got cheek boy. Your second suzuki you own has a bit break and you still comment about me... I would be switching to a brand that doesn't keep breaking, despite it being heaps older

That was a fantastic ride. Spank reckons at Kaiaua that perhaps Coro would be good, and I think, jeez, maybe if it was earlier in day... After a short while of talking etc, I bring it up again - as the weather was waaaay too good to pass up, and we all reckon hell yeah!!

Have a fantastic ride, thoroughly enjoying the bike, and keep catching JSG after towns (

) and riding the bike harder than ever before. Completely miss the guys, who apparently stopped in Whitianga... (I wondered why I didn't see anyone after Coro town... got to Kopu and realised something was up

) and headed back again, I was having that much fun.

Reckon the whole loop was only 2 hours or something, so a hell of a lot of fun

Even though I scored my worst economy ever, at just over 7L/100km for the loop
