Insomnia01 .... Perhaps we should create a new thread rather than clutter up the LOR pages

Know Geoff well, have spoken with him already & looking at making up a timetable.... no need for the thread I'm sorted, I thought there was more riders amongst those that read LOR threads that had done it before obviously I got it wrong

looks like 20-25 people now attending - looking for to a relaxing Sunday arvo with a few beers and some good food!!

For those that want to finish the ride and drop bikes at home and car it to Jims (like we plan to do) his address is 75 Lewis street, Glenview. Sometime around 3.30ish to 4.00ish.

See you at Whatawhata at 12.30

Everyone needs to get down to Hamilton Motorcycles and test ride their demo fleet.

Just took the 2013 ZX6R out and was blown away by how good it is. Also took an Arai out for a demo. Excellent helmet shame about the price.

They have the following available to demo:

Ninja ZX6R
Ninja ZX10R
Ninja ZX14 (pretty sure its this and not the concours)
Ninja 650
Ninja 300

Demo fleet is in shop until Tuesday apparently.

I'm assuming it will be ok to just bike there? I live a bit far out of town to warrant going home to get the car... Anyone else going straight there that I could follow? (I don't know Hamilton very well

)
