    I'm exhausted....

    it was wet then not quite so wet the wet then we got there, then we left and it was warm...so the ride back dried me nicely.

    And what a great ride it was. The rain that we had was just big lazy drops, the kind that have already beaded and started to run off ya visor for you, easy to see through stuff.
    Since there were only five of us going all the way we had a little vote and ended up going out through the tunnel, round the bays where the rain had practically stopped and with a second vote near the Weatcheif we decided to go with plan 'A' and have tea at Duvaychelle. Tea was good although there were others had ordered before us so we had a bit of a wait, we each had a $10 special (photos to come hopefully) except young Dave who just had a basket of chips.
    Eventually it was decided we'd better head home and with the roads now mostly dry we had an even better run back over the hill and in to Halswell where people started splitting off to go their own ways.
    Got to say small groups are nice and much easier to ride with, and yes we did ride as a group.
    Cheers guys,
    TA.

    Oh yeah, only struck a few more spits of rain again as I turned in to my street.

    Well to be said at 10.03pm it was 23 degrees, was waiting for 10.04 and 24, but did not make it. The visor was clean when I left the pub, until just round the corner, some fat arse bug splattered all its contents right where my good eye looks through. Was able to smudge enuf to get ok vision. Bloody good ripper over and around to that pub for my first visit. A good feed after it's long awaited arrival, somthing about the chef having trouble cooking eggs???? Tasty and cheap, def a do again.

    Good to meet the new face (Bent51). And sit about the table chatter and debate the world.

    Wot more to be said

    The amount the wind gusts affect you seems to be inversely proportional to the size of your arse. This is why I don't have too much trouble on my GN

    You're obviously too healthy, pack on a few hundred pounds and i'm sure the wind won't be a problem. Or what Dangerous said...

    Haven't heard much from you lately M. Lovely photo you took for the Calendar btw!

    Yes it was a great ride with great people in the rain, sometimes it is fun and enjoyable to ride in the wet.

    Glad I did it and meet you as well Bent and Dave again.

    I glad we solved the world problems Q.

    I would like to thing the rides will continue, either as per wed or earlier. I think it will just have to be a decision on here. Phoenix and I can't do boxing day, but will try for the 2nd if anyone is keen. We wont be here the 9th, but I think it should be business as normal that night

    doubt I'll ba able to make the next few weeks, work have fucked up and rostered me on midnight finishing.

    then again I'm working every other day of the week so it's pretty much being smashed into one big work-eat-work-sleep-work-eat-work-sleep pattern.

    yeah if theres people there then its on. i think with the numbers we usually get theres guaranteed to be a few who are still up for it!!
