South Auckland Thursday Night Ride

[caseye]

Good call. Caseye probably wrapped up in cotton wool asleep it's easing off but decisions made. Next week or sat/sun. Already been to downtown Ongarue this week for work.

I resemble that remark!@#$%
Next week it is, no sense going out and dirtying up a perfectly washed, polished and shined motorcycle on a Thursday night for no good reason.
Like we used to do most winter Thursday nights some years back, remember starting in the rain and finishing in it, including the pub/cafe stop before heading home.

There certainly was a few around down near the ramp.

I love those roads

No, missed that one. Did avoid the road kill on the way there though

its an area that has the odd deer on the road.....

that's the second time I have ridden that road. Just as memorable as the first, just different.
miss them old times.

its good for me to get out and visit all of these different places/people - a good change from work cheers guys.

Amit - hope you have had time to adjust your headlight.
No worries about hi beam.
just be careful of areas especially on corners/intersections where rain/traffic washes out stones etc onto the road

Twilight Road/Kimpton Road intersection will have metal across the road and the road will start deteriorating over the coming months

just be careful there.

[eldog]

is this rain going to stop?
Keen to go, but held up at work for a few minutes, I can hear the rain outside, maybe its just a shower.

it was very pleasant out this arvo

Off home and then we will see.

[leathel]

I have got so much work to catch up on, lost 4 hours fixing a fault with a job so I wont be out tonight.

[eldog]

Not for a while now, even see stars between the clouds

[eldog]

Ok will give it a go.... Even for a short run, it will be the only run till next week

[amit]

so did anybody make it for a ride today. delayed at work wanted to come over. well always been used to riding on asphalt , definitely on the chip seals the confidence level goes down as the fear factor kicks in( loosing traction). will need lot of practise to cope up till then probably have to hold you all back
