Well, it was a very impromptu meet n'greet tonight ... ended up with Toto, Choco and I having a little Hornet get together!
Turned up that it was a bigger ride than expected! Had Banzai and PirateJafa bingle bonking along with the swarm...
Met up at Auckland City Library, Banzai already in Borders waiting for us!
I was playing with my bling ice blue LEDs on the Big Ol'Hornet waiting for the rest to show up.
Nice sounds of the Hooligan and a lil'ol'hornet meant the swarm was complete. The others duly arrived and the usual bike shite talk fest commenced before Jafa needed to fill up (rather than riding on fumes).
Toto graciously allowed me to have a blat on the Hooligan and I was mightily impressed with it!Gotta luv' them Hornets!
Anyway down to Caltex, through the domain twisties, along to Mission Bay and a stop to swap bikes again. Through the St Heliers GP, down to Panmunters where we chin wagged and took obligatory photos ... a couple of homeless fellas asked if we had smokes ... as if ow!
From there, it was the parting of the swarm, Toto and Choco off back norf, and Jafa, Banzai and I did a quick zootle to Buckland's beach.
I ended up riding back through Whitford way and goddamn if I didn't run into the biggest, juiciest, squelchiest bugs at night. I got home and had to throw my gear into the wash since it was a mess of gloopy yellows and greens!
Never mind, was a good night for a meet n'greet n'ride!
Just have to find more Hornets to go buzzing around with next!![]()
