Hornet Swarm Night City

[Badger8]

Right! Got out on time today, and bleeding and re-filling my brakes this arvo. Will be at the library at 6:30, hopefully someone will come out and accompany me
if not, i'll just cruise around all on my lonesome any excuse for a ride!

i hope to fool the world into thinking i own a five hundy by appearing as little as possible on the bike. alas, no. it would be like painting a pumpkin with stripes and pretending it's a watermelon. =_=



lol, what kind of menagerie do you take to work, justin?

Actually, MBB commented on the cute rider on the mighty Kwaka. Get it right, hope you don't teach like this. NCEA aside.

Rie, I was disappointed to miss out on meeting you and GSXRTrace (who is the perfect woman, I mean, she rides a Gixer); between you and GiJoe, the intellectual average of this site is dragged up by at least a couple of points.

Snap. I do rather like the pumpkin striping metaphor you alluded to! As for the menagerie, you know I am a treacher of fine well bred animuls! They vary in colouration, size and disposition. Some smell quite badly, others perfumed and just as nauseating. Intelligence varies as does their attempts to communicate. Usually grunts, gleeps, urghs and mehs are evinced.

They can be of devious mind and low cunning, apt to laziness and other attention wandering diversions. Hard to sheperd yet they are quick to herd and also turn on itself and devour its own.

There are days where I would like to euthanise the herd or some spot culling with terminal results. The end product is ambigiuous, the payoff uncertain. Hours are long and effort is much. It does not pay to care too much since affection is seen as a weakness and they will pull down the ringmaster in short span.

Cruelty, mixed with a dispassionate sense of watching bacteria grow on a petri dish is the order of the day. Repeat daily.

Right. Where's my motorbike so I can get out of this place. If it's the last thing ever I do. Gotta get outta this place, theres a better life for me ... and you!

That's probably depressingly accurate.

LOL@photos. Not sure if I can make it today, I might see you guys, might not

Rie! You need to practice your 180degrees drift U-turn so that you can catch us up in any speed you encounter

The Sky Tower turned out quite small in the pic with TOTO holding it. Good thing nobody did the lying down pic that someone suggested!

[zeocen]

Oh my! Who had the Balius?

Sexiest 250 right there boys and girls.

[TOTO]

That would be SWEE

Real nice bike, but it aint a hornet

The way Toto rides that Hornet of his, he's got a big enough set not to worry...

Is there a Swarm tonight?....................?

Well, sorry to Badger8 and Banzai who were texting me yesterday! I was off on a pootle up norf to kerikeri and visiting some places I hadn't been in a whiles! Got soaking wet going up through to Whangarei, but just rode a bit quicker to dry out!

Explored a few roads out and about kerikeri and then had a subway with a motorcycling enthusiast (normally eat subways in Whangarei ) and then a quick ride home. Funnily enough I got home quicker than heading out (life is grand when there are no cagers sharing those lanes of freedom!)

For a wee while going to Wellsford, caught up and followed a housetruck that was just stomping it. Took up both sides of the road and he (I assumed it was a male driver) was booking it! Very impressed with the driving skills. There were some absolute plonkers who were ignoring the pilot vehicles (two out in front!) and then realising the doom that was approaching them had to suddenly evasive to the side of the road

Eventually, they pulled over where there was passing room and I tootled off on my merry way. Big ups to Caltex for being the servos that were there when I needed more go-gas!

Hmmm damn. 18K service and some new rubber needed now!

oh boys ya missed out... me and Rie were at an all girls fix it lesson (although it was major basics as to how to care for bike in general - general knowledge stuff, as it was the first one of many I believe).
I am very pleased to hear someone likes me and my Gixer! I might just have to meet you! haha
So how come soooo many turned up to the one ride I didn't go to.... did you all know i wasn't going and so made changes to schedules to make sure you rode and avoided me?


I don't know if there is a hornet swarm on tonight, but im at the safety thing tonight and we cant leave the mall til after 8 due to safety of the public.... bloody hoon motorbikers!
So if there is one, maybe can meet after that?

Alas, real life has caught up to me, many chores neglected and domestic duties mean I must do the minimum to keep things ticking along! Of course, that doesn't mean others have different ideas!
