[Two Smoker]

Don't worry DD i'll meet up with you somewhere out this way and show you where it is. You comin FF or just doing the 22. Hey TS get andrew to come wif us still need to see this duke of his (if that's the andrew you talkin bout). So for us auckers weather depending i was looking at meeting at AB at 10 looking to leave 10:15ish meet at kopu mobile at say 12 do loop one way or another and head back.

Yep the andrew with the Ducati 400SS, i have to say it is mint and sounds gorgeous

Hey Slob, yep looks like meeting at AB Papakura at around 10 am and head down 22.... Are you going to bring the XR or the FZR????

Dont think i will do that coro ride as i have work in the arvo

Ill be there no matter the weather, and knowing that im coming, its bound to rain lol.... good for the coro ride, not the 22 ride.....

[aff-man]

well i just called bike shop so i'll be at AB at 10 but will either do the 22(havn't done in a while) or the coro loop depending on bank balance. Either way if it's not pissing down see you at the AB at 10

So, let me be clear. You guys are all meeting at AB at 10am on SATURDAY ??? Im heading down to Pauanui either Fri night or sat morning so if its sat morning ill keep an eye out. Any one leaving from the shore?

[Vagabond]

I might be keen.... but whats all this "big" bikes organising stuff..... im pretty sure its MR and i out the front.... and we arent on big bikes.....

Will see how much time ive got, but i do have work in the afternoon.....

Do u mind if a 900 tries 2 keep up ?

Yes, that is correct

[DarkDream]

you must have a radar detector then! I've done Whitianga-Howick in 1hr45 but that was really moving and keeping a very close ear out for the nasty little blips of the Ka band! 2.5 is good and allows enough time for slack aucklanders and fuel/coffee stops.

Dunno if I'm gonna be round on the w/e or not. Have fun If I'm not there!

Hmmm no radar detector, well not yet anyway....just opened her up and hoped like hell.....actually had sore eyes when I got home because they were open so hard trying to search for cops.

Having said that 1hr 45mins was a really good ride but I still got passed by some guy on his hog, gutted......still getting used to the corners.

[DarkDream]

No AB papakura, southern motorway, first off past papakura off ramp heading south, has BP, Mc Donalds ,AB cafe etc....

Okay, yeah I know where that is......I'm not sure of the usual time people meet but perhaps 10am would be good? Head off again about 10:30 so we can get to Kopu mobil about midday?

Wha'dya think?

Cheers man,

What's a good time to meet you out howick way?

10am meeting at Autobahn sounds good and then meet at midday at kopu mobil....do loop etc etc.

All on Saturday. Nice

AutoBahn Papakura @10am, gotcha! It'll be the FZR this time coz I haven't taken it out for months and I need to relearn how to ride with clip-ons.. Hope it doesn't rain, braking with a baldish rear is gonna be interesting.. (Dunlop GPR80 sucks in the wet even when new).

Bugger!

Right, well I'm free on Saturday so I can meet Darkdream and Affman somewhere out east for a 10am hookup at AB papakura... at least that way I'll be there on time

I'm keen for either. I'll do coromandel if there's enough of us but I should probably stop avoiding SH22 and just get to know it (although I doubt I will ever get to the fanatical level FF is at!)

...but I should probably stop avoiding SH22 and just get to know it (although I doubt I will ever get to the fanatical level FF is at!)

Excellent, I see you have received the positive messages about SH22 loud and clear CK!! ...and maybe a few not so positive messages directed at you being a pussy

[dveus]

hey guys,

mind if a relatively new biker like myself tags along?

OI You're meant to HATE 22 and so am I. Don't leave me in the gutter on this one!

Everybody's welcome on KB rides, I've been on 3 so far and learnt a hell of a lot.

Everyone regroups at turnoffs, so you don't need to worry about getting lost or trying to keeping up.

I've learnt about some fun roads, and seen/participated in some great acts of bravery/stupidity.

Hey, Nothing wrong with 22
