Spotted a few of you heading to the meet, too bad I had to pick something up in Glenfield otherwise I would have been there

**Toaster** · 15th February 2007, 20:43

Would have loved to be there but had a dinner thingy to go to. Hope it was fun.

HI all

What a fab night out (newbie new here)

Just a quick message to say thanks to the people who organise this, certainly blew a few cobwebs out of the engine and me.

Unfortunatley about 2km from home I had the pleasure of chatting to your local constabulary who was determined that I had been speeding in front of his very nice pretty brightly lit up car that I completely failed to notice until he turned on his christmas tree lights and turned around to chase me.

Oops !

However I can happily say that after a lot of head bowing and apologising he LET ME OFF !!! 74km in a 50 ! is that good ?

However, apparently if he catches me again it'll be a $170 fine !

So a good evening all in all

Cheers guys

I probably wont be there next week but the week after i'll try to clean out the HD and hopefully make it all the way around (without breaking down or getting a puncture)
anyhow i've waffled on too long - see you all soon and thanks again

Chris

READ THIS: http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=44235

a bunch of motorcyclists seem to have ripped of a restaraunt giving us all a bad name.

i'm offering my $20 to pay the bill, any other takers please go to that thread and offer what you can.

**paveho** · 16th February 2007, 07:17

Good ride, everyone ! Thanks very much.

**Buddy L** · 16th February 2007, 12:40

Good night as usual was a bit of follow the leader at one stage

left a few people

as we stoped for a quick breather to sort out one qkkid's

bearings

and it was all on again. Had a blast with no sign of mr

.
Thanks to the QK's as i would be lost without my thursday night ride.
Managed to be pointer no less then 3 times last night and was still one of the first to the pub

that means having to show Jonny which way to go all the time, must just be to fast for the group

:spudwave:.
untill next week latters

**Qkchk:Me** · 16th February 2007, 17:06

Good night last night! Becides Qkkid getting some of the pack lost up in the hills above the pub..

So what did you guys think of that new bit of road reversed?

40 bikes left Shell Westgate and we picked up a few more along the way. Must of been a few guy still trying to get out of the dogbox for forgetting Valentines Day, not as many riders as last week.

Theres a couple of pics from last night on the first post, so people can see what they getting themselves into....

BTW Always make sure you have the pillion seat LOCKED down firmly before going on any ride. Nearly lost the seat on the road, luckly it fell down behind my back and managed to do a James Bond thing, hold onto it and pull off the road...
