guys for the record. I was the only bloody biker at the party last night-hmmm
anyhoo after riding the viffer down to welly i figured she needs a bunch of work .The back shock was set so soft she wallowed all over the road and i thought it was stuffed -we pulled the sidecover off and it turned out the shock was set for a 30kg miget and the damping was setat the softest setting
Any hoo im looking forward to being shown this legedary hill

Um... eeexxxcccuuussseeee me !! I believe I was on my bike too you turkey !! AND I came out in the rain in my golf shoes to lead you back ... Have fun going over the hill mate keep it rubber side down at all times ....

And we rode up you bloody Elton John wanna be---

The very last sensible thing I did that day made me leave the bike at the motel as I definately had my drinking trousers on... (my black ones) Christ, I could barely walk!

However, I'm awake and about to put my riding trousers on (curiously, they are also black)... Looks like rain (again) ....

Hey Frosty,

I'lll be riding all around the Manawatu and Wairarapa today, if y'all see a blue ZZR closely followed by a green VN1500 then that'll be me.

Have a good one,

Sedge.

[Blakamin]

I'll be out at some stage hopefully

Damn good ride today. Takas, gladstone hill climb road, on to Matsterton, back over the takas followed by paekak' hill. No bins, just good riding in good weather. Interesting to note that the Flying fish cafe was charging 15% public holiday surcharge even though today isn't a public holiday. They can get fucked from now on greedy wankers. Bloody awesome. Glad you made the trip down there Frosty always good to catch up.

Employers still got to pay time n a half and day in leiu or some shit like that for today, coz its a weekend, monday and tuesday are back up days and some b/s law applies for them, so quite a few businese's are doing crap like surcharges, meh not my money. Looks like i'll be down welly way for next weekend and staying on for manfeild on the 15th , so will have to catch up with a few of ya's.

Well in that case I'll shut my useless pommy pie hole up then. It'll be good to catch up when you're down. track day will be fun too. Pray for good weather. You still riding that TL1000? Do they still make parts for those?

I fucken hope they still make parts for em, enough parts viabrate off the bloody thing, hopefully WT can hook me some racetecs for the trackday or better still his bike, i'll keep an eye out for ya as you lap me and i'll biff a muffler or two at ya to try an dishearten you, mind you the TL is pretty hard to pass with it wobbling all over the show, corners and straights dont matter which.

Sounds like my old bitch... except we just toss off the odd mirror !!
We're just easier to pass because it's hard to ride and tape shit back on the bike while you're moving !!

thanks amillion guys --i had abloody fantastic days riding with you guys. Well proof positive of my inability to ride fast was getting totally anailated by dean jimbo and co -basicly everywhere we went.Ohh um and ya know piecock hill well um er --she bites --and when she bites she bites fucking hard. Yall remember the Vfr750 I used to own--well its totalled -along with a huge section of rail and a 150x150 pole holding the railing over a 100m drop. What happened? frosty fucked up --and twas after the ride as we were poodling home too. The fairing has gone the forks bent the headluight stuffed and the front wheel has a big v in it. hmm---ohh well I diuddnt wanna sell it anyhoo.

frosty fucked up

Dude - You Ok? Not a nice bin that - at least you seem to be able to get home and type to us all - hope you are OK.

Yeah, I'm pretty sore. I've shifted the plates in my shoulder. Thank god I was wearing the race verts because the damage to them shows I probably would have broken my ankle. Celticno6 and I have assessed the damage and at this stage I have a big dent in the front wheel, bent forks, twisted triple clamps, lower fairing is destroyed both sides, headlight ripped completely out of its mounts, top fairing mounts twisted, and front mudguard was wedged into the radiator. Basically not a pretty sight. At least the tree it hit after it went through the railing stopped it going for a flyer down the cliff.

Celticno6 thinks I'm a nutter cause we used the duct tape to put it all back together and then I tried to ride all the way back the way we'd been riding all day.well ya know the storry-if a horse bucks ya ya jump back on again

Angry at myself is not quite the word for it.

After over 400kms of somewhat spirited riding its unbelievable that I binned it at 60km/hr on a bit of road I'd just ridden down.

Oh well motorcycles are just tools for learning. Sometimes you bend the tools.

Guess what guys - my tool is bent. :sly:

[Yokai]

Yeah, I'm pretty sore. snip

Dude - sounds pretty bad - glad you are in one piece (albeit sore and hurting)

Basically not a pretty sight.

Yeah, but you never were (sorry.......)

At least the tree it hit after it went through the
railing stopped it going for a flyer down the cliff.

Man - that would have been a shit way to start the new year. Were you a long way back from it?

Celticno6 thinks I'm a nutter

Goes without saying, surely? But I only say that after watching you spark the museum!

Angry at myself is not quite the word for it.

DUDE - You're Ok... that's good and all that counts - would be nice to have the bike in 1 piece too, but you being Ok is far more important ... here have a

Oh fuck mate please tell me your joking. That'll be a terrible end to a good day. Bloody typical charge hard all day have a ball, then ride casual and bin it. Man I'm sorry to hear you arsed off.
