Ill will be there on the loaner from Holshot - a somewhat rusted Ho'Bag cruiser that has suspension so hard it makes my eyes hurt.

I will meet you in Albany because I really dont think my spine will hold up all the way to Westgate and back.

There were about 8 or 10 bikes last night, the weather was great.
I thought a couple of folks had dressed up for Halloween but turns out they always look like that

With the motorway cutter protest ride coming up on Saturday, and the fact we ride in a group from WestGate to Albany the topic of the night was pack/group riding. Started off in the car park (without the bikes) which was basically a practical theory, then the road trip ... learning what, where, when and how amongest other things
Afterwards, heading to the pub we were lead by the mighty scooter (wont mention any names) giving everyone an uncontrolled route (because no one knew where we were going) which also lent to the nights lessons.

A big thanks to all those involved, a special thanks to Whitebelt for getting us back safe, and to Littleman for him to leave his brand new bike on the side of the road to help another bike (whom he thought was in trouble but wasn't, sorry dude).

Remember folks, you never stop learning so hope to see YOU there next Wednesday - rain or shine

and it suits her too

it's an awesome looking little machine!!!

yeah Tank how is the new toy

wiped the smile from your face yet or are you still catching bugs in them teeth

I hope its everythig you expected and more, nice wheels dude!!!!

As for Wednesday, I'm not sure if I'm coming along or not yet. My brakes are being a little anal and dont wanna play the game but I'll try and get them fixed before then. Cant seem to find anywhere that does a seal kit so I may have a wee mission on my hands to fix them

Yep - picked up the bike yesterday afternoon.

Only think that would make me happier is being in the middle of a Elle McPherson / Jessica Alba (sp) sandwich.

Came the long way home (although not too long as we had guest - bugger).

Woke up this morning and of course its pouring down - still rode it

but VERY carefully wet roads and new tyres make interesting riding.
