Does MSTRS know about you being in Tarts Skirt? With all this man stuff going around one might assume you were wearing it Dooly.

And right cute he looked too!
Well.. he would have, but somehow we couldn't persuade him to put on lippy or wax his legs....

Fingers crossed. Hope these cows behave today so I can get out for a ride. Recon we should hit the Wairoa road today. It is warm and dry here. Bloody summer in fact. A bit of wind but most of that road will be sheltered. Sort of.

Wasp27 and I went to the summit ( Taupo rd ) on Thursday and it was very windy. Lots of open road for the wind up there. So what you all think?
Was a blast aye W...................

Certainly was.....I just finished saying to D..."bet we go up the goat track today

seeing as how we went the Taupo Rd the other day

and guess what....I check the site and BINGO....I

the Wairoa road. I reckon she'll be a nice ride today by the look of it. Hitcher will be annoyed he's missed a ride...trouble is they have to ride through some pretty shitty weather to get here..so they very wisely postponed this weekend. Still Brett, one things for certain up here...there will be plenty of other

opportunities....so you two, just hold your breath a wee bit longer. I think it will good for you today Janet, actually looks like the wind is abatting with every passing hour. Not that many exposed parts on that road anyway....should be good. So check ya tires....clean ya visor...see ya there.
Cheers W

Might pass on the Wairoa rd.

Gonna fire up the 250 for the stepson who has'nt ridden for a few months and we'll go for a tootle to the Patangata I think.

Have a good un guys.

Well, well, well look what happens when I got away, the men take over!!!! Sorry Tart only chance I have for the internet. So where you guys off to today? Speights_bud, is my little wee house still standing? Have you ridden my pink bits? Hope she is going ok for ya. Loveing it over here. So much to do but missing you guys heaps!!! Saw Pinkhoggirl at Draculas the other night, what a small world. Its 27 degrees over here so its time to scare the locals with my lily white legs. I have photos to bring home but unfortunately I can't put them up here as I'm at a internet cafe.

Hope you guys are missing my lovely smile

Enjoy your ride. I keep seeing bikes over here wishing I was riding. I'm hopefully gonna be back on Saturday (not today for those that are alittle simple). So any chance we could go for a ride on sunday (Weather permitting)?

Anyway gotta love ya and leave ya, shopping calls. MISS YA HEAPS!!!!!!

We demand pressies for all.
We also said hullo to Wairoa for you today. A bit of damp air at one point, a little windy at times, a spirited ride. You woulda hated it.

**BigG** · 11th August 2007, 19:20

Yep that was an awesome ride today

the only wind I felt was when Stevwe and Rob flew past me nearly puped meself. Well Lady's it was a Mens day to-day cos Tart didnt want the wind up her kilt, never mind the boys enjoyed themselves, nice Cafe' in Wiroa picked up two strays on the way back that was cool. Gee you blokes ride well.
Just thought I'd post the picture of another Yamaha from when Col came up to Dannevirke, nice bike eh!

The house is still upright and intact, and the kitchen unpacked and set up so you won;t be able to find anything!

Dunno.
I saw a group of 6 or so bikes towards us near Patangata, and 2 guys on a Buell and TL1000 going full on down a straight in CHB.

Lucky we did'nt go to Wairoa with the others, the boy broke the 250 again!!!
The last time he rode it too.
Oh well, more repairs needed on the damn thing.

**Gixxer 4 ever** · 11th August 2007, 21:41

That was a nice ride. Sorry about the fright we gave you G. This bike is a bit on the noisy side. But you would have seen me in your mirrors if you had looked.

I have not seen such a big grin as the one W had when we stopped down the road from here on the way home. Thanks for a great ride Dog. Was fun mate. No demons left in the old man.

What can I say. Twas great. We missed you Tart. I hear you spat the dummy when you read Wairoa. Aye Chicky.Don't you miss kiwi land?

hahahaha and you are going to miss it next Saturday. Yea I am sure we can do a girl ride on Sunday. No boy ride for me cos I am off to watch Speights_bud race the pink bits on the track. Ummmmm oooops I mean a 250 of some sort.ummmmm.....a black one.I think. Ooops sorry Paddy. Spilt the beans. look at it this way, Chicky won't be home till Sunday so you will have it back together by then.

Cheers you lot and thanks for a great day out
Steve.....Still lost in the Gixxer mist.
