    Home already. Damn I'm quick.

    Bit of a fuck up and a half once we'd got to warkworth, spent a while riding round finding out where everyone had gone in Mangawhai.

    Damn weather.

    Ahh I just had a look at nz_liam's profile pic

    Ride was okay, funny shit with that cop at the start.
    Though I wasn't feeling in the groove, maybe too late a night last night.

    Maybe it's cause it was Sunday?

    thanks for the outing maha, twas an interesting tiki tour,the wet roads and loose gravel all add to the skills.anyone else think menu was a bit pricey($20 for chicken salad)?
    went down 16 on the way home,no cops and mostly dry roads,best part of the day riding wise

    Well!

    If that wasn't an interesting ride home...

    Left the group at Wellsford and went 16, tucked up behind a Mazda 6 sedan for a long time (thought it might have been that cop out there) till he started crossing centrelines, so I went past him. Had a by and large clear run so got to maintain some nice speed...

    Turned off up somewhere, went past a car, up next was a courier's van... cept he didn't like the idea of me going past... que a courier van doing 140-150 so I couldn't pass (bandit stops pulling hard around there)...

    Eventually we came to a tight right hander where he wobbeled all over the show, went up on three wheels, plenty of tiresmoke and was lucky not to end up in a ditch the stupid prick, went past while showing my appreciation...

    Onto Old North road through some lovely twisties, overtook a landrover coming out of a corner onto a straight... coming over back to my side of the road hit a really rough patch of seal which punctured my rear tyre making the next few corners really, really interesting... so I pulled over, and my poor bike went home on a trailer
