Looking for a riding buddy tonight.

I'd get lost in a paper bag if I couldn't cut my way out.

Learner'ish speed depending on the road.

Go out to Raglan for a coffee... you can't get lost doing that and its a lovely ride.
As Sabine would say, you go straight, straight, straight and then you're there.

Although, I heard they have some corners there. In that case do exactly the opposite of what Mark said

Them were tha days...

Many trips over it when it was metal. I remember the scariest moment I had experienced to date was on the Ahuroa hill, heading to the coast. I met a milk tanker coming up the hill towards me, taking up the entire width of the road. How the hell I managed to avoid being cleaned up amazes me to this day. The seal only went as far as the railway line IIRC?

I'd do Woodcocks any day 2up. Absolutely love it. Well it's the West Coast Rd part of it that's funner.

Did the bit out to Raglan. I can see why you big kids like it. No idea how I got back into Hamilton because it wasent the way I went out!!!

**Juniper** · 17th October 2013, 20:35

Nearly hit a possum. Those fucking animals are out to get me!!

That dog really did a number on me ay. Open road night riding on roads I don't know makes me a tad nervous.

Foots hurting again. Think it's phantom night riding animal killing pains.
