    Better yet, get hold of thier riding schedule and take turns being rostered on as the "KB presence " on every ride they do. Oh and be sure to have a mix of super flashy modern go fast mobiles and ratty old clunkers to see how they go. And if they go real slow, call up the scooter brigade

    I'm not sure if its the local BMW lot up here or somewhere else.

    Thing is I don't really care too much what other people think, if the info is true. (It's what people who know you think that counts) It's the bullshit that annoys me.

    Harden up man. You being all soft like this is affecting the rep of us hard as Welly riders.

    I used to ride a BMW K100RS but all my mates had sportier machinery, so I was used to wringing its neck in an attempt to keep up with them. I must say that with a few exceptions, I found other large capacity Beemer riders to be a pretty insular and slow lot. Their websites were awful places with a complete absence of humour. Stop moaning about KB - you don't know what a crap website is until you've visited the BMW ones!

    The Welly bikers I know are all great people

    So that's why they kicked you out of Wellytown....! lol
    I have only met a few of the Capital C&*^nts but the ones I met were alright, for wellybums.

    I was just thinking that.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I'm quoting this post because it's fast becoming the most quoted post!
    Well done Dooly. One thing puzzles me. Why would the beemer group need to slow, or stop to let a non-BMW go on ahead? BMWs are already so bloody slow, even push bikes give up and ride on ahead!

    Deano, well I think it's a badge of honour to be described as an arrogant wanker of a rider . I've worked hard for years to earn that reputation and Traffic Cops regularly use it when speaking to me, in what I always assumed was a term of endearment. Is it not a compliment?

    Roogazza - I wouldn't be surprised if we find Deano is awake much earlier in spring and looking for excuses to sneak out of the house at sunrise. He is still in that honeymoon marriage stage It'll wear off.

    I'm as slow as a wet week and I've been made to feel unwelcome on a ride. Mind you that was in the days of WT 'leading' them.

    Yeah we had lunch with ya didn't we and even let ya close to our top chicks - sounds like welcoming to me, not arrogant.

    I'm a Hawkes Bay man by birth so maybe I don't count here and I can't say I've ever felt shunned by anyone. I'd say I'm a quick rider (not fast) but I don't ride to keep up with the fast guys and I don't mind coz at my age my eyes aren't up to it any more anyway - you know the old presbiopia - you just can't focus at all ranges quickly and while glasses help they can't fix the problem.

    I haven't seen you that much Deano, but I've never had a problem talking to you when I have, and I regularly see MD and its always a pleasure talking to such an enthusiast - how could anyone think of you as arrogant?

    So arrogant w**kers in Welly? Nah, never met any.

    I reckon 30 at our last lunch was a tribute to the camaraderie that is developing. I don't help myself mixing with the crowd because I have other things on as well and am away a lot, so don't ride that often but I couldn't complain one bit about any of the people I have met.

    Deano you did a lot for organising the sprints and hillclimb and anyone that works hard for the biking community needs thanks surely, not criticism.
    Cheers

    Shit, I am not a Honda rider now, maybe I think the Welly crew are a bunch of arrogant w**kers.

    But having met a ton of Welly riders and being a Welly rider myself I don't think we are arrogant w**kers. While I have not been on a Thursday ride or ridden with you guys in the weekend, I don't think that is because you don't want me (or others) to join you.

    I think the issue may be to do with the perceived pace you guys and girls ride at. Maybe this person is a little concerned they would end up riding outside their comfort zone, and have subconsciously come to the conclusion they are not welcome to prevent this from happening.
