Sounds good. I have some things to tweak on the bike and if I go it could likely be a 2 up I'm afraid with Vickster. (hang on, she might be doing her garden trail thing...)

I'm sick as a bloody dog today!

Should be on the mend!

Is this ride still on?

**DarkNinja** · 20th January 2005, 15:32

Yes its all go no matter what.. apart from if the weather is shite. im at school at the moment but i will go home and scan in my storyboard so you guys can get a general idea of whats going to happen. there may be a few cases of 'let me go in front' just so i can get the camera ready. But it is looking promising, all i need is a handlebar and im (fixed) away laughing!
WOHOOO....
Taped my friends' film lastnight he was doing skateboarding which he hasnt done in about 3 years so he hurt himself quite badly. but ive decided im gonna risk it and tape the camera to the back of the bike, along with some polystyrene, duct tape, trailer straps and bungee cords. that thing aint going nowhere.
See you on sunday

Sorry guys but I can't make now :disapint: We had some glitches when repainting the bike today and I need to go and sort it our on Sunday.

Have a great ride - I might come and say 'Gidday' at WMC anyway and wave you all off

I knew already, but I'll miss ya. It's been AGES since I've ridden with you.
Oh well, there's always another day.

Dude (Sounds funny when an old geezer says that)

Check your times. I think the suzuki guys are leaving from Caltex Rimutakas at 10 not WMC.

Please confirm.

I need a oil line testing ride before I change the front main seal... Could be fun!

yeah i have changed the times for the start of the post. sorry i forgot to tell everyone but the meeting time at WMC is now 9am, leave 9:20am

Paul - if i am able to pick up my bike 2morrow i will be going to a test ride up the rimutakas to get used to the road, ive never been up before. but if you want to go as far as to go up and down and back up and back down the takas then i could take a ride with yer.

Could be tricky time wise...

I have spend an enjoyable evening tinkering with the Guzzi but today looks like a bad one. Vicki is coming into town for a funeral and that means I will be dragged around bars and stuff as a part of the wake / grieving etc. Saturday is a bit full up already so we could have a problem with test rides.

Luckily I have not done anything tricky to La Guzzi so should be sweet for sunday.

I'll meet you at Caltex Rimutaka if thats OK. Less distance from Raumati.

Cheers

Thats ok Paul, i forgot my boots today so even if i do get my bike back ill have to go home and get them :S
Ive attached here my storyboard, hopefully my handwriting is legible enough to make it out slightly, but the pictures should be helpful enough.

Arg i cant upload them... must be the firewall at tech. ill do it tonight guys, sorry :S
