No worrys dude

glad you enjoyed it, you were not holding anyone up so bring your Hyosung out again!, I certainly don't mind what speed anyone rides at as long as they are riding comfortably within there limits and keeping decent following distances. Not trying to play catchups or anything to prove etc..

As for pillioning!! WHY?? hehe

I am probably missing the next few rides, will see how the funds shape up. But I would say next weekend Murray and Trina are due for a ride as well as Millan and Donna. They are consistant riders and great company to ride with. So next time you may find yourself riding in proximity to around 3-5 riders again.

Nice Hyo!! I thought about getting a yellow one when I was deciding on my Hyobag, I choose red :P It was on special too, Great bikes! They are quite forgiving on the road and teach counterstear very well due to there size, yet you can throw them around if you need too. Cant said much for the brakes... but pft.. brakes are over rated and only slow you down.

Yeah I got a few dude

, Hold that thought, Will talk to you at the pub.

Good attitude!

Not sure about the need for speed though :P I know a Hyo is sluggy hehe, two up and speed is not a good thing :P You would be back down to Hyosung pace and probably even slower in the corners :P

Nothing against your riding, I do not know your riding previously but you were doing ok hehe. Mentors are great! because there is always something to learn!

You can have a look here :
http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/mentors.php?do=list

Or you can contact *Finds the info *

John Turkington who is the Ulysses Co-Ordinator on 0274 850 645, Or checkout their Website at "ulysses.org.nz"

They offer free mentoring, just give em a fuel gift card as thanks

It is well worth it!

They love it because it is also another good excause to get out and ride :P And any excause is great!. Going for Coffee gets a bit overused :P

Jim will more than likely be at the pub on Wednesday, He is the tidy looking chap with the white beard. He would be able to answer most questions you have but it is basicly a ride

Members who have the green ME after their names are mentors. Quasi here in hamilton now has a road bike again so might be able to give you some good pointers too. He races motards.

Thanks Spazm, good route and a nice pace. Hopefully I will get out on a few more rides.

14 bikes left Cambridge BP, about 7 of us ended up at the Cock and Bull.

I will have a crack again at making it to the pub night this week
