Where did everyone go? 22/01 Wairarapa?

**StoneChucker** · 22nd January 2005, 18:13

Went for a ride at about 11:30am, got back about 6pm. On the way over the hill, I saw one bike! Two at the flying fish and hardly any on the road. Did I miss something?

The lack of bikes was MORE than made up for by cages, and stupid bitches in Pajeros (sounds like a clichè, but true). One tried to drive though me on a roundabout when she didn't give way, so I was able to hoot all the time following her around the roundabout. I scared her so badly she pulled violently to the left and stopped.

Fuck it was funny.... Funnier if she rolled the bike-bashing 4x4.

Should be a better turn out tomorrow, 9:30/10am Caltex Timutaka. Be there, or ride faster to catch up with us

I think the lack of riding has caused your grey matter to atrophy. That was weeeeeek haha

No, that will be the grey fluff that's blown into my head by mistake!

Think about it Dave.

Warbirds over Wairarapa - millions of cars going over the hill.

Vodofone X-Air on in Welly with heaps of FMX.

Would you really be mad enough to try and take a bike over the hill today?

Anyway my excuse for not being there today is I had to take my darling wife (who incidentally is 8 months preggers) to hospital.

Poor Gini's stuck in the maternity ward at Hutt Hospital with an IV drip in her arm feeling miserable. And I have to stay home and look after Tim.

Not a good day.

The weather isn't looking so good. I'll definitely come the rain stays away. Whats it like there now? (08:30)

Yeah - I went over there yesterday too and hardly saw any bikes at all. Sorry Dave - remember I don't use my phone so I only got the text today because I had to use it. I went over at about 10.30-11ish so that's stink timing eh. Good to hear you've got your bike back though!

I DO have some memory you know :P I just sent you a text on the off chance you'd have your phone on (or be on a ride, hmm, wait a minute....).

Look, if you don't wanna ride with me, just say

It was the AGM of the Ducati Owners Club in Tokaanu on Saturday. Hamish, Her_B4 and me headed up early Saturday AM, the rest of the Wgtn Ducati guys/guyesses left Wgtn around 9.30am.

Hamish and I came back via Rotorua, Gisborne and Napier, arrived home today.

CelticNo6: hope Gini's okay, keep us posted.
