I'm tempted to pose as the biggest squid ever; go into a dealership in a singlet, jandals and stubbies, go up to a sales man and go:
"I got my full yesterday, and I'm the best rider in the world. Give me the fastest bike you have. I don't care if it can turn corners, it just has to pull huuge wheelies."

and tape the reaction lol

What do you mean 'pose' as the biggest squid ever? You ARE the biggest squid ever

The problem is when I actually do some trips out to where the riding is riding, bikers complain! Go figure!

Right, no mercy for the next ride meet!

When I utter those words "follow me", those who have heard those fateful words and ride with me all know well what it means!

Pootling is pootling where ever it takes you

Some pottles end at nourishment venues for our bodies

and some end in nourishment stations for our beloved bikes bodies..... variety is what makes up life and riding

Based on recent riding... lets see, for you that would be about 50km, involving a motorway?

If it involves riding then count me out. I go to these for the socialising and new food experiences and to unwind - don't fancy going for a ride on a Monday night after work when I have to get up the next day at 6am.

There's plenty of other Aucklandwide rides throughout the week and weekend that involve vigorous riding.

Zeo, its like Alfred says - "If you start pretending you are having some fun (by riding), who knows, you may even have some by accident"

You do realise karma will pay you back?

And just remember those words when you are paying for me to go and ride my bike in the school holidays!

Vigorous riding? On a hornet swarm ride? I think you have us confused with other rides!

More like a pootle around very familiar parts with some variation in which parts we go to!

And on that note, I am doing more research into new places of interest for the om nom nom aspects!
