Wednesday Night Ride

[Gareth123]

I tried getting the faster guys to leave at 6:15 it didn't work.

Maybe have the slower guys leave from somewhere else? McD's or Countdown Colombo st perhaps?

Well – congratulations, this is more or less what I suggested weeks ago. Once any group gets beyond a certain size, it’s quite normal for dissent and disorder to ensue.

There are two distinct types of people turning up at BK and both have quite different expectations. The first subgroup I would describe as: “People into slow synchronous pootling off to…(Pubs, Cafés etc). For brevity I refer to this subgroup as “PISSPOTs”. The second subgroup I would describe as: Racy, anarchic, troublesome boys and girls. For brevity I refer to this subgroup as: “RATBAGs”.

Since the beginning of time these types of groups have always been at loggerheads. As long as the overall turnout is, say, 30 or more bikes, I think the best overall solution is to get a divorce and split into WNR-P and WNR-R rides.

I suggest that the WNR-R subgroup should start its own forum and meet at McDonalds Sydenham before f*cking off over Dyers pass or wherever else the rats want to go…

No offence intended to anyone - just a bit of common sense wrapped up with a bit of fun

So that makes me a PissPot! I like it!

I won't be doing the ride tonight, got myself a bad cough and sore throat, will be along to wave bye bye, then off to Alexandra tomorrow!

Hi all, just a quick note in case anyone is interested, I'm selling my camera setup, the whole shebang, with 3 bullet cameras, HDD recorder, case, cables, battery, power adapters, chargers etc plus more if I can find it in my cupboard.

I also have a second hand Gopro HD that I bought 'cause it was cheap but came into a few unexpected dollars so will combine that with selling this and buy one new, supporting local business and all that.

Both going cheap, would love them to go to one of you lot who will have fun with them.

Feel free to get in touch, chat, make an offer etc

Hey Rik/Ian would be good to catch up been a while!!

Well that is why I was going to do a WNR.
To catch up with you lot before Christmas.

There was a discussion on where to ride to and where to stop to eat and drink.
Seemed quite innocent to me.
And out of the blue (to me) a few started to talk about people being bitchy?
Must have missed something that happened in the past?

So I lost interest and did what I normally do.
And went for a nice wee ride by my self.

I ride to relax and unwind.

Some of you need get out to ride more and stay off the net.

And I hope to catch up with those of you I know and have a good Christmas.
And hope to see you guys at Woodstock.

what a good ride, sorry about the dyers pass, I forgot to mention I'd be going that way, and that we wouldnt be stopping at halswel but I think everyone worked that out later.

I got to duvauchelle and couldnt be bothered going to akaroa, thermal gloves under my riding gloves made it feel like my fingers were big unweildy sausages, and my tyres were so cold they were slipping in corners which was annoying me.

Hey man, sorry, I never see this thread after lunch time on the day as am at work. Yes, still keen on battery! If you're keen on a camera then we can just take the battery price off the camera price, easy peasy!

Nice ride tonight, shoulda come along!
