Were you on the Rimutakas today (19/11/06)?

Gah!

What time were you there? I want to be famous! I recognise a few of those bikes.

"Bike Number 42" is cool

Some twat who had been stopped by the po po on the Featherston side (Along with some other overweight 'fast' cars) was just leaving where he had been pulled over, and pulled out in front of me! Like for fucks sake, if you get pulled over by the police, at least look when you pull out onto the road again.

Yeah, police on the hill eh? Try and catch me in yesterdays traffic... Bwahahahaha..

The wine festival/pissup was probably the reason. They had a speed camera and a booze bus on the road between Featherston and Martinbourgrhrghrg.

Nice pic's but they remind me of what I had to miss out on

My bike is receiving some care and attention at the mo!

when i came over from featherston there were 3 marked cop cars crossing the hill, one had a bike pulled over, think it was a new ktm duke.

Next time, I think a sign saying "NOT A COP. TRY AND GET YER KNEE DOWN!!" might be in order.

I think on a nice day, taking photos and enjoying the sound of bikes, sitting on the hill could be fun. With beer.

If I drink, will you drive?

It is a pity you were following an Aprilia, as I like them and I followed it with the camera.

But I think this is you from the back (there are 3 other ones like this and one from the front without your head

)

It was an enjoyable day.

If I go out again I will provide some advance notice, some company is always welcome.

Well, from the sounds of it these photos are great. I'll let you know my opinion in 93 years when my dial-up connection finishes loading them...

Hey, what an awesome thread / idea. Really nice refreshing change from the usual annoying ramblings, to some decent discussion / motorbike pics.

Good stuff! Nice photography too.
