Still, ........not to late for me to go riding, I"m not afraid of the dark. Cold, dark, .........back home to the fire, hot shower, beer, food, its not all bad.

Love winter !

Now that what I like to hear. I was nicknamed Captain Hurricane a few years ago. I like the winter. Easy to put on warm stuff but this heat kills me. I hate the leathers in 30 + deg. I am sure we can work somthin out. Give it time and see what happens.

No not yet but one day. But not the ugly bike.

No. We ride as a group. We will always wait. I think the group has done well to this point and I am sure we can keep it going. Just ride to your speed and the group will be at the end to sit around and chat. Worked well on the ride on Saterday.

Just to throw another idea into the mix......what about arranging with our more southern cuzzies to meet at an agreeable place more central to all.....can be either Saturday or Sundays (got to be flexible with the weather anyway) could include lunches and of course non-alcoholic bevvies around a fireplace....what ya think ?????

I'd like that, save the mad rush I have to do to get to Napier at the present time.
Not that I'm complaining about the fast ride in from the wops.

Sounds good! I am reluctant to "join" the Thursday riders at this point, umm, actually reluctant to join back up with you guys too, TBH, as I am so slow...but I will get there
If its a Sunday, Alice could join us too.

Sat/Sun, does'nt bother me either.

I like this idea. I have spoken to Morepower and they are very happy to let us ride with them. Dave recons we would find their group is a bit more sedate than it use to be. Keep bringing the ideas forward cos I would like to keep the group going over the winter and if we can get Alice along it would be good.

And our favourite Tart. You will get back up to speed. Just lift your head and look way down the road. I will try and get out with you sometime and you can follow and reset your lines. Mind you MSTRS has good lines.

Would they be interested in doing there ride on Sundays ? I cannot be the only sucker that has to work Sats.

**yungatart** · 27th February 2007, 17:02

I'm happy to ride both days or either/or - weather dependent, of course!
I just need to get up to speed first......

Probably not. They set a day and time and work around that. We can do our own thing but maybe the odd weekend we could just turn up and ride with them.
No you are not the only one that has to work weekend. From about June to Jan I work most days. I make the effort to fit a ride in if I can. But I am all but self employed so I try and work it so I can escape in the middle of the day

sometimes mid week to

So where are we going tonight?

Carissa and I should be there? Consider it a warm down ride

By the look of the weather coming in at the moment...might just be going nowhere

bugger...I think we'll have to flag it folks...raining steady here now

**Alice** · 28th February 2007, 14:25

I'll turn up cos I have to go that way home anyways and I'm on the motorbike not the pedally running red lights tonight. Its drizzling a bit outside at the mo, but hopefully will pass.

**Dooly** · 28th February 2007, 14:31

Its been pissing down in Hastings at work for ages, now I'm home out country its worse and closed in alround.
No fun like that, so I'll probably flag it and catch you all next week.

**yungatart** · 28th February 2007, 15:07

We won't be there tonight either guys. Have shit loads to do before our new lad arrives on Sat, and as the weather isn't up to its usual spectacular stuff, we'll take the opportunity to do a few things here
Ride safe
See you next week, maybe with a Finnish pillion!

**Alice** · 28th February 2007, 15:08
