Newbie ride?

[Paul in NZ]

Nice to see all you folks out enjoying yourselves.

The packed lunch idea was a goodie - quite enjoyed mine (and some of Vickis) but the fat clod that made the coffee in the thermos mucked up! Too milky (but Vicki liked it)

Very cruisy ride home, stopped for coffee, for gas, more coffee, looked at the view - life is good!

Catch you all later

Paul n Vicki

Had a lovely laid back picnic in the square and then lost everyone.

Col said right when he was standing next to you we'll go to Lake Ferry and then home, I even beeped my horn at you as you turned off to go back towards Featherston instead of continuing to lake Ferry. I had followed you that far out of town.

C&C rider was following me until then and I pointed to Quallman that we were heading straight on, that's where Col and quite a crowd had gone. So we missed you at the Lake Ferry pub and the coffee machine had just broken down when we got there.

Thanks for organising this ride (and for the kiss)

Aha gotcha!, luckily i did turn back to featherston tho i was running low on that liquid stuff :P, it was a nice ride nevertheless.

Ahhhh, I thought he was going around the lake and that we were just so behind that they'd left us in the dust. Never to mind, still had a nice little tootle with the trailbike boys and home for a beer!! Off to look at the evidence now!!

So many tales (or is that tail?) so little time...
Just a wash and press thanks Trudes... you know how hot you make me - I had to take it off... I can't help being sought after

My girls... you're all lurvely, curvy and cuddly... AND you put up with me... being me... group hug...

I had a blast today, well actually blasted a bit after Martybro - those roads are pretty straight and flat in parts. First time I've ever had batterless fush & chups (and what did you call that green stuff?) You girls all know that I'm available for big brother duties whenever I'm needed so just holler and I'll do my best to hear ya. The "Picnic in the Square" was cool... at least in the shade. The weather played it's part and so did the riders... I didn't hear about any off's so I think everyone got home safe and sound - that in itself is bloody good (given the number of bins lately).

I used to live in Pirinoa and Lake Ferry many moons ago and I haven't been back for 20 years. In case you guys following me were wondering what all the pointing and head shaking was about... I was just having a laugh to myself remembering days gone by... Back when I was a boy...

As far as riding goes, I improved throughout the day to the point where I scraped my pegs on going up & down the Taka's. Apparently, according to the guy on the GSXR1000 I need 100 more to keep up with him... but I think I did ok... No wheelies though...

Thanks peeps (& Trudes) for a cracker day out.

I agree - twas a laugh. MrsK you are right about those two hoons that passed us - at least we stayed um kinda on the speed limit um.....

Cola - those hugs are very scary

From Martinborough I ditched Lissa in favour of staying for a free coffee with Grub and Nasty while the helmet recharged.......can you believe that?!

I raced back home although managed again to stay close to the speed limit!

A great group and will see you next Sunday

[elle-f]

heehee.. but who did I see, skipping off to the toilets with Col.. ??? so cute!

it was Col's skipping technique that was the scariest though. I wonder if there are skipping classes he can attend
