    It can be dark at 6:30, so that makes it night.
    Feel the fear and do it anyway

    Don't confuse education with intelligence.
    There are alot of highly educated idiots out there.

    Badgrl rest up and I am sure we will all look forward to your return, was nice to see your mate with that MZ along.
    I agree. Really I think that we should stick together as much as possible so that newbies can learn from the experienced, but again, I think we cater for who shows up

    Hey man glad to see you made it here.

    Im the Katana rider (Alex). Good to hear that you enjoyed the ride. It was a bloody good night if you ask me.

    I wont be able to make a Weekend ride as I have to much on the go and on Monday I leave for a road trip on the bike around the South Island. Bring on the West Coast and Lake Brunner 8 days of riding around this beautiful island of ours with no desitination in mind cept for Lake Brunner next weekend on the 10th and 11th.

    Just have to pick up a few bits and peices and bleed the rear brakes and Im good to go for Monday morning.

    As for splitting the ride, I dont think its a good idea. At the moment we have a good bunch of people going out each week and everyone gets along? and is pretty friendly with each other. I think if we split up into a fast and slow group then there will just be two rides on a Wednesday night and both groups will end up suffering for it.

    I have no problems slowing down and looking after the newbies, Ive done it before and I'll do it again happily. And it might be good for me to slow down a bit to as I had a few oops moments the other night

    As to what's up this weekend for me I think I will be a bit quite, unfortunately now waiting for the speedo to turn up from Auckland, they were going to try for Saturday delivery, I will have to wait and see tomorrow if it turns up and I can get it fitted.

    I would love to look at a nice cruisy ride, but will have to wait and see.
    Its not the destination that is important its the journey.

    I'll be up for a cruisey ride in the late afternoon/early evening of Sat or Sun. Just have to check with Geek on what she's up to before I'd want to commit
