road 309, was fun apart from the almost binning on every corner. and going 40km/hr for most of it. and then ending back up where we started only to get stuck in traffic then ending up in pareora (with the big l&p)

I had a blast, big thanks to everyone who helped me put my fairings back and the pods

speedo stopped working on the way home :@ bikes falling apart :'(

Eh..you went down the 309.. and ended up in Paeroa.
How on earth did you do that?
They are miles away from each other.

The gravel on 309 was sportbike friendly, the mud how ever was not.

Had a nice ride with y'all yesterday - you all rode extremely well with no issues or drama. Winner of the 'worst luck' award in the group must surely be Mcduck5n, who broke a glass bottle in his backpack (completely immersing his cellphone and everything else, wallet included) and then proceeded to lose the battery cover in a drain outside the cafe'.

And it all happened at the Squid Cafe with a group of 250cc riders... (chuckle!)

was some stylish riding there yourself renegade

Cheers all had loads of fun!

Especially the three times we travelled the Waihi - Whiritoa road

GOTTA LOVE THAT ROAD!!

Looking forward to picking my bike up this week.

This was my first group ride and first time around the loop - made me realise I have a lot to learn. Especially trying to follow bikes I just cant do it - tend to follow there line instead of making my own, front or tail gunner for me!

Again thanks loads and I am sure that we will meet again.. Cheers!
