    The magical KB ride was meant to be somewhere, I think it was a bloody big rumour now , not pointing at who told me *ahem* kyle *ahem*
    so, well, looks like there isn't one, so perhaps, a Uni guys 1, and whoever else is keen,

    Uni Gym, say 10.45ish, earlier = better, leave on dot of 11.05,

    I'm keen for Nish's idea, the whangamata thing sounds good to me, or alternatively, we could head down ngaruawahia then to raglan, the roads to raglan are pretty sweet, check out the cliff top then head back, only a short 2 hrs in a car so what, 45 mins flying on 2's . ..

    :P, wtf is up with old shitty cefiro's wanting to race, damn they are pigs

    Haha cheers for the ride Dan. Yeah you guys have a few more ponies than me and every straight I was a goner, plus I didn't really wanna talk to the blue boys. Pity I was never close enough to ride with you guys on the twisties though!

    God those roads are pretty sweet right now. Kopu hill all road works are done leaving a mint piece of tarseal.

    Got back around 6 after having a few beers with the old man and some locals at the sports club

    Glad I came along, first ever ride at a big boys pace

    Cheers Nish for hanging it out wit me.

    Sounds you guys had a good time. I had to get my tyres and brakes sorted in the morning.

    Manged to grab Ross's old VFR tyre out of Steve's garage and got it chucked on in Cycletreads. Then did all my brake pads as I just discovered today my rear pads were down to it's bones and was scouring into the rotor!

    Then went for a quick cruise in the arvo to Kawakawa Bay with Metal Facility who recently got himself an 08 fireblade. Attempted to but couldn't really keep up with it's technologically advanced blade (which has a fancy slipper clutch and traction control)

    bugger you missed it bro,
    i think you theoretically should be able to keep up with a blade, you've got a 929? those things are mildly slower than an r1 right?

    The 929 will perform just as a good as an R1 , even when the 929 is 69cc less than the 998cc R1...if you wanna compare the R1 then you need a CBR1000RR5.....bet you gonna be impress with the Honda....
