    Argh, late night/early morning retire means I won't be making it to this ride, I actually thought the weather was going to be terrible but it looks like it'll be a great day for a ride... bah, I suck at reading weather !

    Have a good one guys !

    Huzzah! Time for gear to be donned, steeds of riding to be warmed up and revved!

    I will be at BP Autobahn 8.00am sharp and by 8.30am the ride to Kawhia shall commence!

    just out of interest, caused I noticed that todays ride included some work on bikes.

    Is there someone/somewhere who doesn't mind teach me some bike mechanics, have most tools, and the basic idea, but I don't want to just strip my bike just to rebuild it. I could get a project bike but the garage is full at the mo with the daimler; that and my wifey would spit tacks. I'd also like to learn a bit before killing something, or myself in doing a bad job.

    I second that. Perhaps its time for another show and tell / mechanics 101?

    Damn that was a fun ride today!!! Thanks to GIJoe1313 and xerxesdaphat... sorry that I kept leaving you behind... that little section of front fairing on my bike definitely makes going fast more fun/easier... glad there were no cop encounters today...

    Why do you want advice on motorcycles when you have got a daimler, I would assume that owning that, you would have to be mechanically inclined.

    I am, but a car is a lot different to a bike. I guess I could get a manual but experience with a knowledgeable someone is better than a book IMO.

    If however someone has an old motor floating around that I could disassemble...could be a good start

    *I sincerly apologise to GIjoe for going off topic. Ride sounded like fun

    Hell no! Don't worry about leaving us behind - I'm just happy that you blasted off from the launch pad and gave us the learn on your roads out Te Mata and Kawhia way! Good fish at that place as well - I had to laugh at that tosser in the cage who gave you some lip. I think he didn't want to take it any further when he saw me giving him the eye before he spoke to you

    I think he was as you said "pissed off due to being passed multiple times"

    Spot you on the next ride out your ways!

    You're more than welcome to come around and have a look and spanner around on the project bike I've got going. Anyone who helps or contributes will be able to ride Dandi when she's done!

    I'll make it for next Saturday. A bit of a ride and a bit of a play around on Daisy/Dandi!

    Bugger!

    Missed the ride AND missed the spanner night.

    Ah well, had a brilliant day at Taupo racetrack today, brother managed to get third in class, broke a CV joint in qualifying and managed to replace the entire axle in just on 10 minutes, then proceeded to lose the clutch 30 minutes into a 4 hour enduro, and suffered a puncture an hour from the end... what a day - I love motorsport.

    Weather was fantastic, though the fog from Mercer to Huntly at 5:30 this morning was a little sucky...

    Should have new tyres on Rosey next Friday, so a bit of scrubbing to be done... huzzah!

    Donor: So ya glad you're a Biker?

    Minnie: F**k yeah!
