Thanks R-Dog, if i'm not there don't wait, I think you guy's waited last time. I can always go see mates so if I miss out on the ride it's no biggy, plan on doing that after anyway if time allows. Freakin' Awesome day for it.

We hardly ever leave at 1.30 anyway...usually its 10 minutes or so later.

Did you run out of gas John?

Saw you wave by Warwick's house in your car, but only clicked it was you after you went past, then remembering Janet was enjoying the sun at Whirinaki, thought.....

John only has fuel issues in other people's bikes or when he is responsible for filling someone else's bike.
Don't you remember poor Zac being stranded on the Napier -Taupo Rd with fuel issues?
And, yes, the sun at Whirinaki Beach was glorious....I love the beach..it speaks to my soul.
I really enjoyed my rdie today. And the company was superb

Pity I couldn't keep up with you guys. But at least I was ahead of John, eh? and Dooly? Yeah, I beat them both!!! Not that it was a race or anything...
That Spada is a shit load of fun, will be really sorry to see it go

Another great day for a ride.

I'm off with the Triumph group today.
The Napier lot are meeting at Breakers at 9.30 as usual, but the rides in CHB so I'm going straight there to Mobil Ypuk meet at 10.30. The Napier lot will leave from Breakers.

If anyone wants to come like some did last month, I'm leaving my place 10am at the latest and heading down HW50 then across to Ypawa.

And that Ladies and Gentlemen....was a awesome ride. To have all those Riders (both local and visitors) on that road, in that weather, at that pace...... was sensational. The Duchess and I were in a local Fish & Chip Shop getting our Tea to have down at the beach last light....when an elderly lady sitting next to us said..."I see your living the dream"....after a day like that, and in company like that,... the only reply I could think of was...'Yep, we sure are' ...it's just amazing, the number of people that come up to you and say and things like that.... or the classic one is...'Oh. I wish I'd done something like that when I was younger'......so thanks to all you guys that made that a special day...you all rock, big time

I reckon Dave could of sold that bike about 15 times snice he had it. Everyone comes and looks at and wants it. The worst thing it happens even when hes parked next to the R1.

Thanks to you all, I had an awesome day yesterday, seem to learn something new every time I do a decent ride be it about the bike or riding. Good times
