Re today

Oh, and yes, Zed does have a sense of humour, too...

[wkid_one]

Hey, don't blame me. I didn't start it!

Ahh - on this thread you certainly did.

[Zed]

Hey Zed
Sorry to hear about your bin. At least we now have something in common, both having parked our bikes in a ditch on 22.
But you seem to have got off a bit more lightly. Hmmm, wonder if there's some significance in that? Divine protection...
I think I need a road to Damascus...

Technically it wasn't SH22. It's the road that goes left off 22 towards Glen Murray/Rangariri. Funny thing - Before we headed down that road I told Dave that he would have to lead because I'd never been down there before...so what happens! And no, that's not an excuse for our bizarre bins.

I certainly thanked God that it wasn't any worse Mike.

[James Deuce]

That's a shame Zed. Glad to hear you didn't hurt yourself, and I hope the bike gets patched up OK too.

Zed, if its any concilation(I guess its not) I have ridden that bit were we ditched dozens of time, wet dry, foggy, even had a race with MR one dark mooonless night, and yet how stupid was I to make such a basic mistake, I do feel however your get back into it attitude, and your pace once we left exspress way to Tahuna, indicate your skill, ability and general attitude about bikes.

glad you guys are both ok.

Wow what a day filled with so much action. Hey Zed I can't believe this is the first time you've binned EVER?!

So is SH22 still your best road at the FF? Did you have to eat hospital food recently?

Glad you guys are ok and your bikes aren't too badly damaged.

So, exams are over/,

Yes 22 still my fav road, ditching incidents occurred off 22, and no I did not need hospital food, but I can organise for you to go on hosptial food if you wish. sorry only joking

thank you for your kind wishes, we are as you say both okay, sadly the CBR has come off worse that the R6, but still all minor.

Hey guys thanks for a great ride down 22 i will have to do another day, when i am not carrying so much weight on my back. 20+kgs on back does not make riding a sports bike around the twistys a great deal of fun. Was great riding in a bunch of riders in my sorta skill range, no MR you don't count, you are far far out mine, you leaved me for dead up one of my fav bits of road, and you never been up it before DOH,

No worrys bout the k4 MR if you are lucky i might even let you have a go at puke on saturday, you have to be a good boy tho.

Noticed that MR bike tiped in to the corners far better than mine,(due to his race tires and my road tires) his more twity thru the bumps thru the corners tho, mid range, my far better, but high rev range, his i believe pulls better, but wait until i do my few mods they i see what i can do dc:<

Got back home at 1 wanted to be home by 12 oops, quicky shower shave, then off to wedding.

Good day had had by all, somce nice twistys and some nice fast straights, 240ish

Cheers

Cajun

[FROSTY:Me]

[Cajun]

You rode well and looked the part on the K4 Cajun - that bike has a real nice scream to it!

Glad you got home in one piece and in time for the event (just).

As said before, great day for a ride and great company - awesome attitude of those who had unfortunate minor mishaps to hop back on the saddle & hook straight back into it & carry on with the day. Good to catch up with you again Quasi & Zed, nice to meet you finally Firefight having read plenty of your posts and been slightly green eyed whenever you mentioned ANOTHER great midweek ride over 22!! Nice to also have met Duckman, nhuanh Cajun & his mate & of course MR. Hey MR - awesome display dude. Good mix of roads with twisty (& slightly damp) bits early on then open flowing roads later on.

Great team of guys to ride with - really looking forward to hooking up again. Obviously differing skill levels but not so far different that there was a great deal of waiting around for those who were showing some speed quick.

Thanks guys.
