Nice work there Ruahine, was a great day for a ride, sadly we didn't get out today, hope tomorrows not too wet.
Did you get to the Port Albert store in time for a Flounder and chips, THE BEST!
Every day above ground is a good day!:
And on to the new tag....
Great ride to Tuakau bridge, still feels like summer. New tag is a smaller pedestrian bridge.
Religion is not the opium of people. Opium is
Great coffee and very nice people. My weekend getaway cafe. Millars coffee on tap. I ride down to Raglan to but it for the machine at home.
I told the girl in the Raglan shop I came especially down just to buy a kilo bag of beans and she thought I was nuts. She said "you know you can buy them on line".
WTF, and miss riding Highway 22 from Tuakau to Raglan. I don't think so.
Also met probably the prettiest blonde haired, blue-eyed svelte young lady and friend on their ultra-light kevlar bikes who had left Parnell earlier in the day (it was now about 10;30am) and they were cycling to Coromandel to catch the 4;00pm ferry back to Auckland. Made me feel very un-adventurous on my then 1150GS.
Then the pretty one had the audacity to ask if my bike was an 1150 BMW cause her mum had one!!!!!! an RT version it seems. Well a bloke can't be riding a grandmothers bike so I sold it and bought the 1200!
I know exactly where that is, used to race bikes years ago and started a race there every Anzac day
Spent a whole day fishing there with a great mate of mine, by the time our few beers had run out and we'd not gotten a single bite, we looked over the side to see a bunch of young kids running around in waist deep water, right underneath us.
Ah, well it was one of those days, didn't matter we didn't catch anything, just enjoyed the time away with a mate.
PS: Good work weekendwarrior.
Every day above ground is a good day!:
