    You're right. We had a snack and then realised we were really hungry!

    Had a great weekend! Thanks to everyone involved and especially to you and Mom for organising it.

    The north one depending on thoughts of destination, i can possibly arrange an accomodation deal for the group, maybe not quite as awesome as the one just had

    The south one I will just shut up and come for the ride, as long as we can somehow incorporate the back road through to Tahuna in it as thats a nice piece of road

    The grin on your face when you got off your bike up there will be one the most enduring memories I will take away from this weekend Jo.

    Frustration does not come into things on a ride like this. Of course people can ride faster or what have you, they chose to smell roses along the way from time to time is all

    Shagged? What is this you speak of? Mind you if I play my cards right I might get lucky tonight

    I really hope that none of us collected a ticket from that revenue gatherer on the road side.

    Right on. Having a blast is definitely part of why I ride but I really enjoyed providing a buffer and helping my fellow riders in any way I could.

    I had just edited and cut the final video with a total playing time of 10.51 minutes, was saving it and then half way through the bloody program crashed.

    So now I have to start again, what a BITCH!!!
    Rest in peace Tony - you will be missed.
