What? Motorcycling isn't about the destination. I ride to Aka regularly enough and I haven't eaten there for years. Enjoy the ride that Akaroa offers, not the F&C's.

I didnt go to akaroa to eat.. I ride there and ride back. sweet roads.

I blame the bakery! Ever since the pies started coming in cellophane and the coffee in paper cups we have gone to bullys or the fish and chips-obviously he has been forced into drastic actions!

LOL. Was good blat ova hill today aye svboy.....burnt out fish n chip shop , cruise ship tourists and some sunshine.......hilltop stop was pretty good as well . Rides are what ya make them

[leopardskin]

Totally agree cruza! Its all about the trip! Hilltop seems ok-could become our designated rider coffee break stop!

So that's why the weather is nice!!

I might be coming along. Though that is dependent on my battery situation, had a problem with an electrical leak overnight (yep said what I meant) so I think my battery could be drained out and therefore might need a good charge. Will see when I leave work.

[Mushu]

I'll try make it again too.

My tail tidy came today so I'm just leaving work now to go put it on, but when I'm done I'll go to BK for a feed so if you still there I'll tag along

Do we know where we are going this week yet?

[gloplg]

OK so where did you go??? Anyone get any pics???

[Spuds1234]

8 souls braved the carpark and 7 headed over Dyers and Gebbies to Taitap I believe.

I went home because the shoulder isn't quite up to that kinda riding yet. Its better but not bike fit, also sharp bumps cause a bit of discomfort lol.

Gloplg, good to see you last night!! So what happened to the weather, it's supposed to be nice when you are working!!!

Myself and my rider went to Little River, fair bit of wind but no rain until the way back, hit Halswell and it was very wet! Had a great time last night despite the rain.

Great to see you all and a few new faces as well!
