    Dont you go starting vicious rumours like that, repeat after me there was not a shiny sliver bike there tonight that looked remarkably like a Ducati ST3, honestly there wasn't.

    As for having it take the lead until the wheatsheath turn off.


    Great ride tonight, shame about the lack of numbers but I appreciate some folks don't like riding in the dark so please have a look at this thread about the discussed maintenance evening
    Its not the destination that is important its the journey.

    Sorry all, had planned to be along tonight, but the wee man is sick! Fever and cough etc etc, so no "hall pass" tonight!!

    Glad to hear there are a few brave souls still out there though!
    Missus: What the f*&k is that???!!!! Where the f*&k do you think that's going??
    Me: It's a [insert old broken vehicle here] can't you tell?
    Missus: Oh for f*&k's sake... [slams door]
    Me: Phew, lucky she didn't see what's on the trailer!

    Welcome, happy to have you along.

    You did fine. It isn't easy getting comfortable with riding, finding out what lines work for you, how the bike feels through the corners, gradually increasing your cornering speed and lean angles etc, when a) you don't know the road, and definitely b) when it's dark! Motorbike headlights aren't too flash generally speaking, so it takes some getting used to even on the roads you know. So bearing all that in mind, you did pretty well
    Soapbox house of cards and glass, so don't go tossing your stones around.
    You musta been.... high. You musta been...

    That will make for a good ride, BK to the Media Club

    Why not get a group together and do the Chomdeley run on Saturday with the other 90 bikes? Last year was great.

    I unfortunaltly have to pass this week.

    Having just transerfered to a new store I found out today that I have a manager meeting at 7.30 on Wednesday.

    Not cool. I was really looking forward to seeing Phil Garret speak about his experiences.

    As I understand it there is no ride tonight however several of us will be attending the talk to be given in this post http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=72187.

    Given the weather forecast for today this looks to be a great option for a night out, regardless of your personal feelings towards other members and their personal disputes this is a worth while cause and should prove to be an entertaining evening.

    On the topic and personality's that are drifting in from another event where there appears to have been some misunderstanding, please keep it out of the Wednesday night rides and sort it amongst yourselves, this is a social and fun way to fill in an evening and get out on our bikes as a group, I for one would like it to remain so, and have no one feel they are excluded due issues outside of this particular event.

    Ok people. I think we can call an official close-down to the Weds Night Rides for winter. This doesn't mean you can't still turn up if you want to. There may still be some who want to ride. Go for it.

    However, this week will will begin the Chch Maintenance Evenings as being organised by JMemonic and Wofman. See the details here
