    I finally dropped it at 200+kmph!! :(

    I went for a blast with Andy1, my mate on a CBR1000 and Vladi on the R1 around the Coro loop on my Gixxer today. Everything was going real cool.

    We had lunch in Coromandel or that township before that I think. Gale winds were blowing along the coast and rain was pissing down with gravel and crap around some corners. Still everything was cool. The pace was pretty insane but still we were within our comfort zones.

    Comming back through the Kopu straights, we were blasting yet again, ringing the nuts off our bikes in top gear.

    Hmmm... Still all was fine.

    We then stopped at the Hunua petrol station to fill up just before going home. Then what happened? When I looked into my bagpack to check the time on my phone, there was nothing there! I had lost my f-king phone!!! I found out that my bagpack had developed a hole on it's side where the stiching had come undone because of wind resistance. The phone must have sliped off at the straights where I was redlining the bike in 6th gear.

    Damn, I had just got that lil beauty from Singapore 1 mo ago too (It's still not available in NZ at the moment I think) and just last night I had put $40 in credit to "take advantage" of that double top up shit! Argh!

    I was just letting you guys know to not bother ringing or texting me on my number as I have lost that number and all the contacts in it as well. I'll let yous know when I get a replacement phone.

    Damn, that sux

    That's definitely a smack in the face earned at first meeting for that thread title!

    Sheesh.

    I wish I could lose my phone that way.

    Thank goodness the content didn't match the title in any meaningful way, and you're OK.
    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 just got a good cheap one. GTran 4020. Can't get them new, but for their features, they are dirt cheap.
