Dunno, but I saw some wally riding his Goldwing Interstate through Swanson this afternoon.. (was walking my dog) ...bare hands, shorts and t-shirt.

Saw a couple of bikes ride past too.. what a day for it! one tooted at me.. looked like a VFR400 or something similar. No idea who it was though!

PS - welcome to KB by the way...

North Shore cruiser group were out today, one of which rides a black M109R. He even mentioned 'scaring' a sportbike rider.

I rode with a few sportbike riders down her in PN on my Meanstreak until i brought the concours a month ago I was never far behind them and in some cases in front Even blitz them on Vineger hill in the dark
They all gave me the respect i and the meanie deserved
Even helped me try to find parts of the exhaust i lost scraping round some of the local twisties

Maybe you hooked up a tassle as you were passing, and were actually towing him?

True, nothing like folding up the boards on those tight twisties

fortunately my boards fold before the pipes, cheaper to belt a couple of new scaper pins in when they wear down...
Now there's a peice of road I enjoy, left at vinegar hill on to feilding... Niiiice...
