Hawke's Bay weekend rides

[schado]

Perhaps you should read the email properly - it tells you which BP!

Thankyou for putting it so politely. I realised at the very last minute that I overlooked the word CLIVE. And I managed to get there to find a 40 bike turnout... Wu huuuu Some stunningly nice bikes there!

Again, a nice wee ride. Nothing too spiritted, but fun non-the-less. And, as usual, I didn't want to get off of the bike... I just wanted to keep riding all day long.
There's the BURGERFUEL ride tomorow. Lets see how the weather turns out. I like those rides, they've always been worth the effort.

Good Classic Club ride today. Seems far more modern bikes on the rides these days. Good to get back to the clubrooms and check out the bikes.
Shame about the fella who crashed on the way back. Bike looks rooted, and he's knocked up a bit but hey a ride in the ambulance is always interesting. Trust me, done it many times.........

Was he a KB member?

Well it wasnt me! must have been one of the last to leave the Patangata. Got some good footage on the camera, needs setting up a bit and a few mods done, couldnt see you to much Dale as the fella behind you was getting all the action.
Best ride Ive had for a while, realy enjoyed it, got a fell on the Duke come flying past and another twin.

One worrying thing. I note the date stamp on the tyres is 3706. So the rubber, Michelin pilot sports, are already 3 years old.

Wouldn’t it be better if the bikes came out with rims and the tyres were fitted after the bike was sold so the rubber was fresh?

Heel we have to learn to ride the new bike and they are shod with old rubber. I would never put 3 year old tyres on my bike. Might have to run them soft to get them hot. The power should kill them in a short time.

The tyres should not be too bad as long as they have been out of the sun and the neat..
However I am STUNNED that you have come over to the Dark Side . well done!

Hi all, it was the green ZX6 that was behind you BigG the crashed, i just droped the bike off to him, high side by the look of it, lost the back on the moss on the the road he thinks ? broken collar bone ,heaps of bruising and minor tendon damage to his thumb, very sore bloke at the mo, The bike looks alot worse than it is, new pegs, a bit of fairing bracket staighting and plastic welding and it will be all good again,
