Thanks for the ride guys, had a great one, no hairy moments on my part either.

Jamie: Sorry mate, I was star struck by the zx-10r and completly forgot about the even better bike behind me, if there's any damage at all let me know and I'll give you funds to fix it, sorry again mate.

Just posting from a mate's place in Ponsnobby - great ride, good to see familiar faces and some blasts from the pasts. Nice easy pootle around the back yard!

Luvv'n it ... too bad about the weather tomorrow

I was being friendly to the nos bike and the kwaka while I was on my bike, reversed a bit for them to have some room to move and some how forgot there was a stallion behind me and back right into it, god I felt so bad. I quickly took off behind you.. I think Jim's SWMBO was ready to have my head

Thanks to McJim et al for the laid back ride. Nice to meet some more kiwi bikers :-)

Sorry guys preoccupied with the the F*&ing cell... work dramas.

Fantastic route, nice weather and even nicer people.... now, who had the oldest bike?? Methinks the two Beemers might have qualified

Will post some pics when I can get the phone connected to the damn PC...

Cheers

Stu

What wonderful company you all were today.
I thoroughly enjoyed myself...... doing point x3 and getting back up to point again.... Now that is a first for me

Oh and I was on the ONLY cruiser on todays ride.

It was a neat ride..... meeting some new faces and some old faces
(ok they weren't THAT old).

Ixion neat to ride with you again and young Erik..... nice to catch up.

McJim, nice leading the troops there mate....

Chickadee - that white jacket can be seen for miles.

Maverick - Your sun genie certainly was working today.

Headlight - Got dark on the way home and discovered that my low beam wasn't working..... High beam was ok. So not sure how long it wasn't working for today. I have now since changed it over to a new bulb.

Someone backed into my Ducati today....photo bleow shows where the fairing bolt split the mounting to the frame

**McJim** · 28th July 2007, 21:34

Lucky for him I managed to fix it as per the photos below

Zeocen owes me a beer.

Hmm that's strange, I thought only the tyres touched... if it hit the tyre fender I don't know how it would damage something in that area? Either way, I've been having a bad feeling all day, scared to check back here. I am _SO_ glad it wasn't serious.

A thousand apologies to you and your wife

There is hope for this young'un yet! Good on ya zeocen for fronting up and admitting your diablolical part in the dismantling of the duchess!
