New tyre ride 3 Feb

[Hitcher]

Thanks guys for the company last night. I will post the "team photos" later today.

What a great night for a ride! It was great fun and I think everybody enjoyed themselves. We should do some more of these before summer runs out.

I really enjoyed the leisurely pace. I didn't feel the need to play catch up once Anytime you're going, give me a yell

Same here. I was catching you leaving the coast Stoney. Really I was.

Damn, I missed you guys and tagged along with the other ride which came by my way but they were too quick for me. Ended up going around Makara on my own - that road is an experience!

Should be able to make a 6pm ride next week

sorry I missed ya groins... Sels1 an I went over your way about 8.30 on the way home... we prolly coulda been earlier if it wasn't for the hutt traffic and broken petrol station we met at... (and the fact my contacts were 6-7 weeks old and I cant see at night)

I know, I saw you appear in my mirror about 2kms before the end of the road (start of the 50 zone). But, I did slow down half way, partly because I didn't think anyone was trying to catch up but mostly because the road was interesting in one or two places. Especially that left? hander bridge. There was a small gravel patch right in the line of the corner (in the bottom of a dip / strange camber)...

I'd like to come on more of those rides, to try get the "greyhound instinct" out of me (open road, GO!!!!)

Get a naked bike. That's what I did it for. You KNOW when you're doing loss-of-license speeds...
Plus you can drop and it doesn't cost much!
