not anymore... used to for 10 years, but found my niche now
nah love that bit of road, hard work tho, very testing
actually had a nice blat today, altho was feeling a bit wary on the Buell after spending so much time on the race bikes... and theres all these fkrs on the road trying to run you over!
Not to mention the retards in the pushbike race WTF was going on there??? See a bike race sign on the side of the road, think.. Ok slow down a bit even tho its 100km zone, down to 50kms or so, with a van and a car and Dangerous in front of me. Suddenly there is a van on our side of the road yelling at us to get off the road... EXCUSE ME but who the fuck are you to almost run us down?? ...after him was about 30 cyclists , with a fair number on our side of the road as well.
I guess the bloke on the side of the road leaning on his sign before we got the van trying to run us down, was maybe meant to STOP THE FKN TRAFFIC GOING THRU AND FORGOT???????
fks sake, if you are having a race on an open public road i suggest you get someone with a brain to hold your signs, otherwise pay up for a closed road like the rest of us do when we race at the track or piss off our OPEN PUBLIC roads.
very lucky not to have a repeat of the Le Race fatality, with a couple of motorcyclsits thrown in for good measure today
Ok gripe over... It was a NICE ride after all that shit

Gripes just starting, that shit that went down was serious... it was so close to another LeRace type death it wasnt funny... those bikes and suport cars should NOT cross the center line, I am going to follow this up as that was discusting organisation... considering a few corners up theer were 2 coppers on bikes on points duty and when I walked up to them and bitched... he didnt seem to give a shit... dangerous not happy (red hair heckles comming up)

Yeah MrsB decided that I could spend about $3K on another bike. I've really been missing the road, and its having an effect on me, so she decided I should get a road bike. problem is, with 2 race bikes, a $3k POS would be just that- a POS money pit. Better to put some of that money into the Monster, where the extra development $$$ would pay off at the track and on the road. The wee 750 Monster would be a bit underwhelming on the road, but then I guess that will keep me out of trouble

She was beauty all rightglad to have finally caught up & managed to get a few kms on the road with you at last
though having the Meanie blat past and then proceed to grid off bits around Lake Forsyth in front of us was a bit daunting
and someone trying on a drag up the Takamatua straight was entertaining
Yeah and you held us up having your wee chin-wagthough from behind you looked as if you were giving him a bib full
They shouldn't have had a bloody road race mapped out that it crossed a main rd like that anyhow especially there at Tai Tapu, there's plenty of bloody back roads to choose from in the area that would have kept them well away from any traffic.
Here's a couple of pics from the day anyhow

Bloody beauty day, was to good to stay in the sun, ended up in Refton, damp and cooler, and taking some cross country dirt track to a look out.
I'll have some snippy snaps on me webby snots a liddle later.
Good to hear that ya others got out there.
A shocker though the news about the cycle race.... blatent ignorance it seemsthere are some idiots on the roads. there were some in our direction to.
Bring on the'er days!!!!!!!
