    All things being equal, next Thursday should be fine and settled weather and lots of old buggers should show up. or Knot.
    No matter, either way I'll show and see who else does.

    Found the part I had ordered AGAIN from Red Baron, it had rolled behind some crap where I had been repairing it and my 'man look' couldn't find it.

    So I should have it back together again by Thurs. I have already lost it twice now. and there another on its way... bugger

    I need direction and a stick approach or something to challenge me, before I get it together.
    I make all the mistakes in the world before I get it right so be prepared.

    Got some longer 1000k+ rides planned for later in the year, if you have suggestions about preparing for that, would be helpful.

    if its only 1 or 100 its no worries. Last week it was none and that was great - had to do it myself.

    Can be whatever ride you want -

    I already know that I need to improve slow speed manoeuvring and cornering anticipation, but I don't need to race.

    I am busy myself at work, but everyone else is waiting for something to turn up.
    would be nice for everyone to be busy again. That's why I am here now

    The South Auckland Thursday Night Riders don't race, never enough of em these days anyway, we've not lost a newbie yet and there's been plenty of them come along with us on a regular basis who've gone on to bigger and better things.
    Other gatherings want to go fast, we want to get to where we're going and enjoy a quiet ride home, if on the way there or back we learn something that's good.
    Be nice to ride with you again lethal me ol mate.

    Good night for a blast last night, No Rain, little wind and hardly any traffic.
    Sorry you were incapacitated there Lethal.
    eldog and his C50 showed up, noice bike that, Ended up at the Paddy, been a while since I last landed there, warm and toasty by the fire then out into the freezing cold for the return trip home.
    No drama's at all, good ride, could have done with a few more riders though.
    Where are you all???
    Summers here, come on, wake up.

    It was a good night, its been a while since I have been out on a bike.
    Recommend the fire
    It was educational and inspirational exactly how I should have started my riding. - just need to practice and gain confidence=more riding.
    Its wasn't that cold it was nice. Thanks
