If the weather holds I might go for a squirt to Patangata.

Bugger, slept in, but you get that when you crawl into bed after 5.00am.

Ok, who's going riding today and not to the Cold Duck! I think I'll head out shortly for a pootle somewhere.

**banditrider** · 9th May 2009, 13:30

Tomorrow I think. Either with the Fielding mob or off up to Napier.

Had a great day out on the bikes. Nice steady pace that can be maintained when there is just 2 of you. Swapped bikes with NZSarge and he broke the 9! Well not so much broke but more like run out of fuel. Note to self... when lending your bike make sure there is fuel in it. On the upside, Me on a ZX14 with half a tank of fuel is faster than Sarge on a ZX9r with no fuel.

Anyhow, good day on some fun roads. Attached pic is just for NZSarge. This is where we would have ended up had we not turned around. Dont know if it is sealed but it definitely doesnt loop. Might have to check it out one day.
