I was getting a bit disturbed that there was no ride announced at this stage on a Thurs so I thought I better take action. Do people usually meet up at Wgtn MCs and Maungaraki even when it's not announced on the site? I'm keen to go for a quick blat anyway - so who else is in?

A ride has been mooted if the weather clears which it should. Normally it's a case of rock up at WMCC at 1800 or the bottom of Maungaraki Hill at 1820.

The sun's shining down here, cicadas are screaming away, windows are all open - don't you worry, we're having a beaut here too!

(finally)

it's even starting to shine in Jville

Roll on hometime... i'll gladly ignore my backpain for the stress relief of a decent ass whipping by a Honda Jade 250...

Given last week's spectacularly unsuccessful attempt to organise an "other" ride, I too may convert to the R ride this week. And take out the ST, rather than the Marauder, on which I have done a whisker over 1,000km since Saturday. A quick fang to Greytown and back last night did the job just nicely...

go easy on me, I don't need any more ego bashing after last week... pretty soon I'm gonna have to concede defeat to Commodores too.

A 'Jade' does sound like just the kind of bike that one would enjoy receiving an arse whipping from, doesn't it?

Feminine, but with a soupçon of naughtiness.

It was more the long flowing hair of the female rider disappearing into the distance on the 250cc learner bike!!!

Ah well, at least it's something I can aspire to...

Watch it mate! I don't want to have to send the Jade up your way! (mainly because the tyres are stuffed and clutch is slipping though)
