They're off riding up north... I decided to be social, dropping in for a chat and some dinner (not for the BMW, it's on a diet)
Best Frenemy you could have!

Well some nice wet twisty roads! Some parts lashing down with rain that came in horizontally, lovely!Been ages since I enjoyed myself like that!
After the big feed up at the Crazy Noodle Canteen consisting of :
Sweet & Sour pork
Spare ribs
Black pepper steak
2 X bowls of Wonton soup
Combination fried rice
Fried squid
Fried chicken wings
Mini spring rolls
Flat rice noodles with steak
Chicken and cashew nuts
Spicy potato wedges
All washed down with some nice tea and fizzy drinks!
zeocen turned into a pumpkin and rode away with Gremlin, the rest of us up to Old North Road and the local environs there, weather bore in and we were treated to some nice wet night riding (always good!) in some parts the rain was hitting so hard, it was bouncing right back off the road - other bits, it was steaming off! TOTO was ride leader and I was TEC behind Gale_wolf and Wanpo.
At one point, we stopped so we could don our wet weather gears.
Eventually we turned right before Kaukapakapa and headed back to Highbury for some Momotea!
Talked the usual bollocks and bike related guff before we all sloshed our wet gear on and headed on home! (for the record I had Litchi yoghurt drink with mango pudding and crystal, my girl had a hot rock melon tea!) Gale_Wolf had obviously drank enough rain water and passed up the drinkies bit!
spot you for the next wet weather swarm ride!
Oh yeah, 3 Hornets on this ride ... really was a Hornet Swarm ride!

There's something not quite right about Honda's brollie dollie. I wonder what it could be...
Crap weather for sure, still enjoyed the ride though.

Nothing like a good bit of rain to sort out the garage queens from the ride anywhere time brigade!

you meet the nicest people on a HONDA
Fashionably late.
Protip: Road bikes are not dirt bikes...
...not my most intelligent moment.

I can hook you up with some knobby tyres if you want. There was a guy who crossed the sahara desert on an R1 as far as I remember.

For god's sake, don't give the guy without a brain any more ideas.

at least he went offroading willingly
Fashionably late.
Hey it was fun! :P Until I got stuck
Video should be uploaded in 45 mins or so...

there might be a new hornet rider joining the swarm soon. Spent the last hour checking out a cute wee hornet in silver. Brought back memories of the White princess

found a video of Gremlin, from his KTM days...

Fashionably late.
Well the mud made me give my bike its first wash down on Friday and today I gave it its first proper wash. Damn mud ruined my lazy streak. But thank fuuuuuck I don't have a faired bike anymore; tank, front fender = done.
love my bike more and more by the day :P silly faired bikes :P
Oh yeah, who is the aprilia dealership in Auckland now since Mt Eden imploded? I was gonna get some Z1000 mirrors but Crapasaki wants $86 EACH for some piddly mirrors so I'm gonna get the Shiver/Tuono mirrors again, they were far cheaper.
Hey Kawasaki, you're not European, stop pricing yourself as if you are one. Cocks.
