Yeah the initial part of SH22 is crap, too many bumps and crazy corners, but the part just before Ngarawahia is fucking awesome, second to only Coromandal..... SH16 is too fast, you need to be doing over 160kmh to go hard..... too fast for the RG...

Me showing what a 150 can do??? I think it will be them showing me what a 250 can do.......

TS, I'll show you what my 250 will do if you can still see it in your mirrors after the first 2 corners..

F/F

22 is beautiiiiiiful mate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just gotta watch a bit of gravel and those silly wide tracors and she be right

[Kwaka-Kid]

sorry but im still not converted! my stomping ground is the West!.. Just found huia road the other day - or at least refound it and rememberd how much fun it is! whereelse has nice WIDE SMOOTH 50kmph road with tight corners going up hill that you can just play with! ahh so nice... btw made a metal plated knee slider - been experimenting, its pretty weird though, and can grip.

As for having different sized bikes, it's not a concern to myself. I'm just keen to get more bikes on the road as I hardly ever see any! .....The main purpose of this is to get like minded people out on the road enjoying a good ride. After a while a few of us may even look to organise weekend rides, organise accomodation etc.......and basically enjoy riding our bikes.

Now that Mrs FS has got the motorcycling bug, I'd be keen to go on a few organised rides that aren't basically road races / pissing competitions, as I don't want to scare the bejeesus out of her now that she's starting to enjoy herself.
So some rides that have a contingent of slower bikes and/or riders would be good.

Well im still keen for the Saturday arvo ride, F/S just come along to any KB ride, there is all sorts of riding speeds that are there the fast guys always wait and never complain

I wont be wearing leathers though, mine are off for repair (see 600's are bad for me ) due to the hole in my knee on them from riding MR's bike around pukekohe, you would think knee slider would last more than 20 laps even if you have your knee down at 200kmh...... So wont be as fast as normal.....

And KK, i love that bit of road coming up towards the titirangi roundabout on Huia road, where your doing like 110kmh and nice flowing corners with hot mix...... mmmmmmmmmm corners with hot mix.....

[Kwaka-Kid]

whats hot mix? smooth seal?... yeh its all good!

[Mr Skid]

TS + KK, I'm keen for a Saturday ride.

SH16 / SH22 / where-ever, rain or shine, I'm in.

[Kwaka-Kid]

TS, I'll show you what my 250 will do if you can still see it in your mirrors after the first 2 corners..

FF he says he wont be in TS's mirrors after 2 corners.... Or are you suggesting TS is even quicker than that???

[Kwaka-Kid]

Yehaw

I'm free all day Saturday and Sunday, so can fit in with anyone.

How long have I been riding? *paparazzi checks odometer* err.. 1200km and 0bins so far.. Did Old North > Peaks > SH16 > Wellsford on Saturday and have experience on the open road, but I'm still somewhat cautious heading into corners, until I learn my machine nuances.. (That's my euphemistic way of describing myself as moderately slow )

ah, someone who hasn't ridden with TS, this should be interesting.

You'd think having done a BA I'd have some vague ability with the english language, but alas I'm just vague..

TS, I've read many comments about how you're faster than a speeding bullet, does this mean you need a phone booth to change into your leathers?
