**scuzeme** · 7th September 2008, 20:09

Chanceyy ta for your message about todays ride starting at 10am from the Caltex problem was a got it at 9.45 MAD DASH arrived at the meeting place an hour late and pleased to see 20 or so bikers waiting to go, i did see you but didnt get a chance to introduce my self.
Any way tankcam juiced up we got on our way and had an awesom ride to the summit then onto Martinborough for a caffine pit stop with a bit of serious braking al lah coppa on the side of the road (i have footage).
Then nice cruise downto lake ferry for another drink and shoot the shit session then around the lake and back to Featherston.

Great Company, great bikes, great weather long roads and even longer sweepers hehe look forward to doing it all again.

PS Flame need more horse power

Except for the cow that tried to kill me, the smashed indicator from all the rocks on the road, Steve's flat tyre in the middle of nowhere and me dropping my bike while doing a u turn...

Yep, apart from that it was great.

Yes i got a few small chips on my Duc and one on my helmet that i ws a little pissed about but thats what happens when your trying to keep up with those bloody Gixxer boys, no one to blame but me

Still its better to look on the bright side of things including that fact that any ride you come home from is a good ride.

What a sad day (last Sunday) Arrived at Rimutex about 20 to 10 and no KB riders, or any who'd admit to being one....... Still was an awesome weekend for riding, the 'rapa was wonderful as was the obligatory fish n chips at Lake Ferry.
Soooooooooo, anyone gonna be at Rimutex before 10am??? Or is it another (Lone)Wolf ride??

**wilber** · 20th September 2008, 22:18

Sprints on at carterton tomorrow so surpose most will heading there

**Nasty** · 20th September 2008, 22:18

Sorry Gray wolf ... docs told me no riding this week ... and next week is Vic Club races .. so will be there ...

**nico** · 21st September 2008, 08:41

ill be at rimatex 10am then heading over to the drags is any one else meting there b4 going over or just heading over??

A lot of Kiwibikers will be up at Manfield for the two-day Vic Club round 5 this weekend. Including Nasty and I.

If anyone's thinking of a Sunday Morning ride, that would be a good destination via the hill, Wairarapa, Mauriceville, Mangamaire, Pahiatua Track, Ashhurst, Colyton Rd to Manfield. Or dodge the Pahiatua Track and go through Ballance to the cafe just on the Ballance Gorge Rd before the single lane bridge to the gorge. It's a must for brunch. That'd be a nice little 185km pootle.

I will be there mate.

**Grub** · 11th October 2008, 22:18

I had a short pootle into the city today and it was one of THOSE days, just brilliant to be alive and on a bike. If I didn't have to rebuild the toilet wall tomorrow following a burst pipe I'd be there with you.

The consolation prize is that as Nasty will be on the Breast Cancer ride tomorrow, I can turn Bathurst up full blast on both TV's and at least have some pleasure from the day

**Nasty** · 12th October 2008, 03:54

Yup .. will be meeting Elle33f at Rimutex around 9.30 ish (might be earlier) .... to pottle into town to show off at least one of my bras and a teddy wearing a corsett!

Hey,

It appears my family would like to go for a bit of a picnic at the end of the Wainui coast road this morning so I'm going to join them then *maybe* go have a quick razz over the takas. So, no rimutex at 10.

Have fun y'all!

You missed a good one RantyDave, Scuseme, and a friend of his (both on Dukes) turned up and it was a great ride. We did the ride to Martinboro' and then to Gladstone, Errrrrr lessay my fuel economy took a severe nose dive!
