[eldog]

Not sure how we got from blowing a gale as you take off to flatulence jokes...but hei...i'm amused...
Werks all good...
Take it easy all

I had a rough week (my POV) I needed a happy moment... glad you saw the funny side
I have been practising a SASS move at work, for a couple of days - going round and round and round

We see you when we see you and that will be great.

Just did a couple of hours ride today & FANTASTIC

Essential info for the newbies to SASS:
South Auckland Street Skills or SASS

WHAT: Learning and improving Riding Skills
WHEN: Tuesday Nights
WHERE: Meet at Z (ex-Shell) Service Station, Cnr Great South Road and Taka St, TAKANINI (the one with a Burger King)
WHO: Riders new and old, and anyone getting back into Motorcycling (must be legal & hold a motorcycle license).
Weather and venue permitting - Heavy Rain may mean that we are watching DVDs. Showers are OK, look on the thread for more up-to-date information.
Depending on the number of riders and their experience levels, a short ride may be included to practice further skills. If there are enough riders, some nights can be split into two different groups.

Some nights may include:
Practicing essential skills and techniques in a quiet carpark
On-the-road practice which may see you doing up to a 1hr - 1 1/2hr ride.

WHY:
- Practice essential skills for staying alive on the road.
- Practical help with your riding.
- Fun times with fellow riders, with great stories and discussions.
- Build friendships, solicit advice and pick-up riding tips.

MEET at Z station Takanini -----------> before 6.55pm

START ride -----------------------------> 7pm

FINISH ride at ex-Manukau City Council car park for slow-speed safety exercises -----> usually 8pm-8.15pm
(next to the new Manukau train station & opp. police station)

SOCIAL time @ BRONCOS after car park exercises -----------> 8.45pm-ish

Cost: Nil, nada, zip, zero, nothing... Just your time and attention.

Details of what will be happening each week will be posted on this thread. So kick the tires and light the fires... Let's ride, aSASSins!

Disclaimer:
The SASS activity is intended to give any riders advice on their riding and to practice their skills in a safe and relaxed environment. The organisers of SASS are NOT responsible for any rider, their machines and/or any persons involved. All people attending SASS do so at their own risk.

You and me both! This office move has been a bit hectic (understatement)...

I have been practising a SASS move at work, for a couple of days - going round and round and round

I think it is a great sign that nzspokes is bored. It means he is resting.

And he will remain resting too.

TMI -We don't need to know about the And we wont ask about doctors and nurses

The leather talk is almost TMI

I got on here to say that it looks like a great night for riding tomorrow night. I was thinking about Hunua Gorge, Skyhigh, either West or Twilight and then over to Whitford, Sandstone Road and Regis Lane before the carpark. We are going to loss that carpark we are using so we will have to choose something else at some stage.

Now that sounds more like SASS

FYI - this will be my last SASS ride for a while, no car park no pub.
I have enjoyed it a lot and will miss it.
I am leaving this playground to goto a battlefield.

If you see me give me a wave, (HD riders - you dont need to, just hang on )
