Hawke's Bay weekend rides

**Dooly** · 16th May 2009, 19:46

Neat ride today. Nice pace, good crew, 11 bikes. Couple of roads never been on before.
Good to meet you Demon Dave.

Meant to be a good day tommorrow.
Missus said she was going to stay home tommorrow, but I persuaded her that she needs to go horse riding.

How about BP Clive 12.00, Tuki/Kahuranaki/Patangata/lunch/wherever?

Never mind Warick it was a good ride up ya kept us safe from Mr Plod. Awesome Muffler on the SV you aint half a clever bloke and your not what Steve called you.

What did I call him George?

Must have been one of them nervous moments that all new fathers have when there adopted kids are riding for the first time on the race track.

Yes a second in race one and in race two. So two seconds in a big field on a bike he has never ridden before is fantastic. And the bike kept going. I will do a race report soon.

W raced home flat out to catch up to you two but never saw you until you went past his house. Well that’s his story.

Thanks for comin over you lot. Was a great day. Time for

My bike had a bit of an oops at home - so can't ride it at this stage tomorrow - unless I can source a gear lever in a hurry!

Yep, amen to all that Dooly, excellent way to clear out the cobwebs yesterday.

Hmmm, could be a starter for today, have to see what the day brings. Probably should make the most of the riding weather!

Hopefully you stayed upright?

Sorry guys, gonna have to bail today.

Missus is staying in today and needs a hand with the nags, so I might as well do some harrowing and shit you gotta do when you're a slave to a lifestyle block.

Have to go into town shortly to get something so will bike it but thats all today.

If anyone's cruising my way, wants a pitstop, call in.

I thought thats what would have happened Warick was tring to catch us up but we were behind him and the gap got bigger and bigger but was a good ride back with Garry

nice to come into HB and feel the sun on your back.

Hey Gaza, just been for a fang down your road Whakapirau, via Raukawa on way back from town.
Still some tricky corners with unsighted crests.

I have to agree G..... Gareths first day at da track on da RG was in a word... awesome, I was impressed, so well done that young man.I came out of the Servo and expected to see you guys waiting at the corner, but no one there so I thought..I'll catch up before the end of the plains.....not. Didnt realise that you guys were behind me....until I heard you toot as you passed home, otherwise I would have waited. Never mind...had a good play amongst the traffic on the way home...anyway thanks both Gs.....was a good day. getting back to da Big Guy.....we'll have to excuse his behaviour.....not everyday is your birthday......

....sorry Steve, just slipped out....honest

cheers W
