It's ok mate, catch you next time perhaps, enjoying the bike are ya? Watch that rubber on it, be old as the hills.

Tomorrow i'd like to have a wee ride that will hopefully include V.Hill, weather permitting.
Been checking the weather as you do and sounds a bit like some average weather over on the west coast but fine over here but we'll see, lets face it, of last the accuracy of the forecast's ai'nt been too stellar!
Might head off after lunch some time as it's not gonna be a long ride, say 1 o'clock.
Again, destination variable with a view to including V.Hill.

I may be heading up that way myself to meet Brian on his way back from Auckland. If it's fine the camera may have to go for another ride...

Not sure exactly what time but might know for sure later in the morning. Could always head up that way anyway...

Yep, that could be a starter..

[Meanie]

I might be keen for a short one
Gotta preserve my tyres for my wee ride in a couple of weeks

[cowboyz]

[NZsarge]

I also have an east side alternative if it's dodgy over that way.

Michelin Pilot Power 2ct's or Continental RaceAttack's (street compound) would go well on the new bike I reckon. PP's would last longer though.

You got it! Sweet! Very tidy example. Mine had the BT010's on it, they weren't too bad either, but yeah, swap em asap

Now THAT will be a mint ride

BTW, regarding this 'secret ride' bizo, nothing too sinister in this case. It started as an idea for Michelle to get some pillion practise in with some good folk further south. Seeing as I physically can't ride for another 3 weeks or so, it's a slow easy ride. There's a couple of newbies along and that's why I invited Adam in the midweek thread. Sorry if it caused any issues, wasn't meant that way

[KiwiKat]

Oh alright then. Now has it been mentioned anyone is welcome to come along?

Anyone who wants to go for a decent blat (and can handle the early start) is always welcome to join us on the morning ride through Akatawara Valley and over Paekakariki Hill. I'll be heading to McD's in Rangitikei Street first and then down the road to the BP.

Everyone enjoy your rides tomorrow no matter where you go or who you go with. Variety is good.

Pillions are reminded to grasp firmly.
