Hi Wkid

Where in, you have my numbers.

See you Saturday.

[wkid_one]

LOL - I had already assumed you were coming!

[Slim]

I would love to meet up with you guys for a ride out on Saturday, but I'll be sleeping.

Night shift for Easter Weekend - my only consolation is 2 days-in-lieu & some wicked overtime payments.

[Coldkiwi]

you'll see me there

[bikerboy]

Wkid, you sure run a tight ship, fifteen minute wait.!

I'll be there weather permitting, you know those of us with italian bikes don't like to get wet, not a good look

My number is 021 680 088.

[MikeL]

Sounds like fun. I'll be there unless it's p*ssing down. Mobile 025 6499037.

I second that... I don't own an italian stallion but I just don't like getting wet! I have to put up with that during the week and see no need to punish myself further in the w/e. lets just hope its a nice day!

Thanks - it was a great ride - even though I only managed to catch up with you at the destination!!
(Memo to myself for future reference: Autobahn = Autobahn Papakura, NOT Autobahn Bombay).

Thanks to dan a great day and a great ride. Managed to miss the cops, just, and the rain.

Came home tired and happy until..... the reserve light came on one block from home. As I was tired I thougfht it'll keep till tomorrow but then I thought if I go riding tomorrow I'll wish I filled up.

So I stopped, fueled up, waited for all the bumbling fools at the till. Got on the Bike and pulled out into traffic, quickly, due to heavy traffic and what pull out behind me from a cross street? Mr Plod and he claimed I was doing 85 kph in the ten feet I travelled from the gas station.! That cost me $400 and 40 points F***********CK!!!!!!

[Marmoot]

No Way?!?!?!?! That s*cks....
Anyway, great day, thank's Dan.
Me and 250 went back through Waingaro way again but it was wet on the first 30%. Great though. Knackered and Happy
Greatest ride for this year yet

Hey man , how could he get an accurate reading in built up traffic ?

 

That just sucks big time ...

 

Yesterday morning on my way home from work , saw the blue and red flashing lights roaring up behind me ... I pull over to the left like a good citizen should ... cop races past . Fair enough.  A k or so down the road and here he is at a red light , about to turn up the road to the "station" , no lights on anymore and proceeded very quietly off at the green ... he musta been late for knock off or smoko eh.

 

Not complaining mind ...
