    Midweek Meanders, Wednesday, BP Fitzherbert 6ish

    Having a chat last night and decided that there was too long between the weekend and Friday night rides so a plan was hatched. Pootle mid week, was the fix

    Plan was for a exploratory excursion with Bonez being nominated route finder (I still don't know where anywhere is )

    There are quite a few newbies who want to clock up the k's and get to know the goup better so a perfect opportunity. Not going to be as fast or as far as on Fridays but will surely be fun. See you there

    Best known plans are known to go haywire. Basicly the place and timish has been set and its up to those who turn up to sort out where to go. Obviously a route can be posted in this thread. As Sarah mentioned this is more aimed for the less experianced/newer riders, but anyone is welcome.

    I beleive the CDs have a pooddle from there every other Weds too.

    Really sorry to hear that Bonez.

    Wednesday Night Ride. BP FH 6:00 - Not wanting to confuse things but Central Districts Wednesday night ride / Cafe cruise is also on Wednesday at 6:00 from BP Metro (Cnr Princess and Fergusson).

    There could be a lot of bikes out so make sure you're with the right group. You would be welcome to tag along with Central Districts if you wanted to and maybe pickup some routes. Things are really hectic here so I won't be out. Enjoy.

    Shame about Bonez not being able to attend (hope all goes well for you). I'm keen for a leisurely ride and might be able to come up with an idea for where to go by 6pm. See you there if I don't get all keen and head out to your place before hand.

    Anyone with a 250 willing to teach a learner?

    Hey guys, just got learners but no real experience riding so want a hand in a car park one evening to just get a better feel for riding before i test drive stuff and get a bike and join you. If anyone would be willing to help me out there and let me fill their tank or something i'd be grateful. can contact me on 0275134364. Cheers, David.

    Really sorry about your Dad Bonez, anything you need just shout You were missed last night of course

    Gary and my bruv on the Daytona got to escort the babes on hondas
    Maria (not on here yet) did a storming job and we had a lovely pootle out past bunnythorpe, colyton, colyton lookout and then arrived early at the waterford so headed off down pohongina valley east. Ni and Gary went for a play and Maria got some twisties under her tyres :
    Perfect night and the views were awesome.

    Saw the CDers at bunnythorpe and no confusion thanks for the warning. Would have been too fast for us

    Sly caught up with us at the pub, the new camo gear not here yet so we recognised him
    That daytona is gorgeous Would look better in caspian blue of course but you can't have it all

    The guys rode back with us to Ashurst and Ni and I delivered Maria glowing after her first 'REAL" ride. She is keen to get out as often as possible so won't be long before she is out on a Friday

    Gr8 night for a meander and Gary managed to keep us all under some sort of control.

    Did have to tell Maria not to follow Ni when he was slaloming the daytona along the the white line These visiting poms can't work out how to ride on roads that aren't clogged with traffic!!!

    Didn't get many pics we were too busy riding or in the pub
    A few of the bronzed Daytona.

    Hey Sly you should post the one you sent on text, great angle and anybody seeing it will be itching for a ride

    Will be Tuesday this week unless anybody else will organise a Wednesday run.
    Off to Eric Clapton in Auckland and Horse and I and possibly GSVR will be riding up there Wednesday and back Thursday. Feel free to come find us or ride part way if you are free

    Meeting Ynot and Mrs when we get there


    Tuesday plan is a short slow one and then a play in the carpark to get some braking and slow riding skills. Off to play on the gravel too so visitors to the house on the hill feel safe leaving

    Same time same place
