ahh.. you're all too kind..

Yeah, the day was good overall, and a bit of action to boot, from a touch of off roadin, to some air under the front. The roads weren't too bad in general, but I forgot about the lack of signage on most of the corners. Something you don't notice when you know the roads and don't look for that. The surface itself wasn't too bad either. Was expecting worse, and no one told me there was a surf comp going on at Piha! But considering that, traffic wasn't all the bad either..

Limmy, you just gotta read the road further ahead, and don't be intimidated if you see faster people in front or behind. Just do your pace and remember you've probably got more lean than you think. I've had my fair share of mishaps like yours, you learn from it, and they'll become less frequent..

Generally, I enjoyed the ride, and the turn-out was more than I had expected! And I'm glad no one binned it on my 'first arranged ride', altho doesn't look all that great that there were close calls! Won't happen again!

Now to work on those wheelies!
Cheers guys..

ps - also took 2 pics when we stopped at the top of Piha, but I can't load them on yet. Hopefully get it done soon, will post when I can

Thanks for organising the ride BJ.
Hope you all didn't get too bored waiting for me to catch up!
Nearly time for me to go for the full licence, so there should be a bigger faster bike coming my way soon! Then I'll be able to keep up with you "big boys"-And Gals!!
Riff, your new beastie boy is just lovely! I hope you have many hours of pleasure with him!
Luce.

Too Bad because we had an awesome WE anyway. The Kai Iwi ride (see http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...8&postcount=45) went well despite the fact that alot of you are too frightened to head North

Hope next time We organise sometime like this you guys will have got over your fear

Sorry Doug............

I can't commit to an overnight stay........

The next time if you make it a day long activity on a Saturday I'm in.

I would love to catch up with you and Ant and Jess and finally meet John and see how his new bike is..........

What say you?

A good part of that ride could have been done as a day trip. Riders did have the option of returning the evening and not staying over (they just would have missed out on the beers

). Zapf only stayed overnight because we tacked the Wiapoua Forest loop on to the ride (and well worth it too), otherwise he would have returned to AK from Kia Iwi lake easily within that day. Hope PT & Zapf didn't find my Bachelor pad too scary

The drink seem to go down well but
