    Was a great ride today, I had a bloody blast. Thanks 86GSXR/Sarah and Bonez for showing me a part of the country I did not know existed. Great sites out there and wicked places for coffee and icecream.
    Also thanks to cowboyz for the coffee on the return back to home, after the squirt over the saddle I needed something...

    A+ day had... Thanks guys.
    Good to meet you today and i love the sound of those cans....................... Nice, very nice

    Well. Another great weekends riding. Yesterday was great, loved the Para's and the first time I've done it north on a bike. Marvelous. Great to catch Cowboyz and Meanie on the way back and another hot run into Kimbolton and Apiti. Good nite at Meanies - thanks Meanie

    Feeling a bit tired this morning but was quickly persuaded to get the gears on. Bonez and ManwithaV8 met Sarah and I and we quickly decided to head east. Excellent run over the track, very interesting being in the middle of a Ulysess ride for awhile Gassed at Pahiatua and through to Pongaroa via the Makauri Gorge. I'd forgotton how beautiful this country is and how amazing the road is.

    Onwards to Akitio, ahh just great to relax by the sea in this very scenic spot. Very friendly locals too!

    Back to Dannevegas via Weber. Surely these roads just HAVE to be some of the best bike roads south of Wiapuk. 10 out of 10!!!

    Dannas for coffee then leisurely stroll down 2 to finish off with a high powered sweep of the saddle. Cup of tea, no lie down at Cowboyz then into Bonez's for a very thorough fix it for Sarah's (Honda's) rather 'free' rear seat

    Good to meet Lee, very nice Duc. Sounds great and you can sure ride it mate. Will see you out there on the rides very soon. Come and meet the rest of the locals

    All up, except for the ticket, a great weekend.

    Yes it was a great day 86

    Will be back out very soon... Just have to sort that little clutch issue along with the speedo. Shouldn't be anything major.
    I pulled out my road atlas last night and it must older than yours, the roads that we covered aren't quite up to date on the gravel areas. Will sort a new on and get that bike atlas thinghy you have..
    So after a days work the Duc will get a nice clean, clutch bled and some scoping around for a new speedo cable or possibly a repair kit (I have seen them around) then all shall be thumping again..

    Ya went right past my front door virtually, you could have at least called in and help put a coat of polish on the Ace! How rude!!
