[insomnia01]

Apart from Slofox I don't see any Tag O Rama riders listed, whats up with that ??? Come on fellas its going to be the first decent Sunday we have had for sometime, it will be a awesome route to ride with possibily the best fish & chips to be had along the way.

I hear you, I just haven't had the chance to get out on the LOR rides lately. Not to mention I ride for fun on the weekends and when it is bitterly cold, foggy and raining, that doesn't tick my fun boxes. Now it is school holidays so I have busy kid related tasks to do for the next weekend or two.

When I stopped attending the LOR rides regularly it was because the took up pretty much all of sunday. And that was unfair on my wife and the looking after kid duties. So now I am looking to do adventure riding, maybe shorter rides and that.

They different from us They need a purpose. Just win the tag and make the next one at the Chup shop.

Or maybe would could just have one of those biker gang fights in the main street of WHanganui. Tags vs LOR. Patches included (if your patch is a teddy bear is it still banned?)

On my learners...... on my 250......

I'm crazy but not plain stupid Murray.

You are right Mike, it would be rude too. Buying her a bike is the obvious answer!

I was thinking as soon as I get a bigger bike I'm going to get her riding the white rocket.

The ride is looking like a great day out.
I am registered and keen to be there, however slight hiccup - friggin bike is running like a bag of assholes! I'm pretty sure it's just the spark plugs so I need to find a spark plug spanner that will fit the very tight spot on the bonnie.

Other thing I need to keep mind of is that this bike apparently will only do 100 miles to the tank so will need to keep an eye out for gas stations along the way (cheers Murray).

Hopefully I'll get the thing running properly tomorrow, if not I won't be cracking out the racing Scorpio - after getting used to blasting on the trumpy the wee yamaha is just not enjoyable on the open road!

Hey Dazz, you'd always be welcome to take the Spada out for a rattle. I know it's not much different from the scopio, but a change of wheels might make up for the downsize? Just let me know anyway, it will be just round the corner from Kingsgate, at my work (f*@k it all!). SO gutted I'm going to miss out on this ride! Also - finished with ya sockets and read the 'zine cover to cover and back again, so will have to return them sometime soon.

[mikemike104]

Well. you guys have fun. I forgot about a "family dinner" on lunchtime Sunday (as informed by the birthday girl so no ride for me

[Murray]

Looks like Josh will also be joining us on his new mean machine, along with a friend? of his (might be his brother, not sure).

[smoky]

I will have a friend along with me on his bandit and maybe a pillion - see you there

Its not fair, sounds like im going to miss the biggest ride of the winter!!!
I get to start my journey home on Monday morning, 1300 mile drive from Georgia to Michigan. Should take a couple of days, and if i have time i might stop and have a look at the Brickyard in Indianapolis.
Then i will have to spend a day flying across the states before i leave LA 23:40 on wednesday. Get home 8 on friday
Have a good and safe ride you lot

[Murray]

Thanks for that Paddy, will look forward to seeing you when you get back and have a beer!!

Riderinblack is now coming down from Whangarei to join us on our ride. Will be a lot of new faces and should be a great day.
Hope they have enough fish & chips otherwise we will be earting next door at the pub/hotel
