Well I was riding Miss Daisy tonight, caught up with zeocen at Mt Eden Motorcycles and he got his ER6 sorted, I helped out a lady on a Hyosung put her tailight back in, then we pootled to the Library to see who would turn up.

Banzai only! We ate a bit and drank a bit to see who else would turn up. Nope, just a text from TOTO who shot pass the city straight to the BP Takanini!

Anyhow we rock up and there is TOTO and Chisanga as well. Excellent.

A quick squirt around the goat track and hunuas and Chisanga went back home, the rest of us carried on and we did some spannering at my humble abode.

zeo helped me change a house light bulb (cue : "How many bikers does it take to change a bulb?" "Who blardy cares? Smash the place up!"), Banzai did some tinkering on his Ginny and TOTO tightened his chain up.

The lads then had a go on playing on Daisy and my lil'ol'hornet, everyone was goosey-gassy with two-stroker smiles of goodness plastered on their faces Complaints of sticky throttle and Daisy trying to kill them notwithstanding!

Banzai and TOTO also got to see Betsy started and smoking in fine form! Went to chez BK's for a late night snackies and everyone toddled home!

Great ride guys, scenic pace and safe - Good on Chisanga for getting back into the swing of things at his own pace!

woa , what a riding day.

Got up in the morning early , just to find that Uni lectures have been canceled for the day. Oh well tough luck TOTO says. Guess we will have to make up for the lost lecture early waking time with some riding today...


Shot off trough the ATNR twisties in albany, on to sh16 and on to port Albert to explore some long time no see roads. Checked out the view, some gravel bits, and off to wellsford for bike juice. Off to waipu for a coffee via the infamous mangawahi sweepers and the Cove road macho twisties.

Just finisheing the coffee at waipu and get a txt from Glice that he doesnt know where the meeting point for my maraitai organised ride at 1pm is...so off to north shore via mangawahi, woodcocks and sh16 again.


On with the maraitai ride at 1pm Me, Glice, Quailboy and King_rider made our way trough the gorgeous twisties. Was surprised to see how well the huge B-King of King_rider kept with us 250cc easy corner flickers :wow:


On to kaiaua for a feed and get a TXT from BANZAI that he is joining us for some more twisty fun ahead. Met him at the castle cafe on SH2 after doing Miranda, and off to hanua twity action and clevdon brans spanking new twisties to amaze the guys who never done that road before. After that a doing of Twilight Rd. was in order to conclude the ride with soem more awesome twisties.


Look at the watch on bp botany 0 5:30 - enough time for me to shoot back to the shore and get me wets on since clouds are coming and rain forcasted for tonight. Some interesting lane splitting and I find myself in the shore. Changed the leathers for the corduras and shot off to takanini to meet hornet master and paduans.


Great ride trough clevdon and the SATNR to enjow. some nice cruisy pace to conclude a great riding day.

At the end of it all GiJoe took us all to his house to show us some filthy biker scum bike tricks like - changing levers, riding 2 Smokers and spotless bike polishing.

All was concluded at the not so helthy but tasty BK takanini with plenty of talks about japanese motor vehicles and style of transportation on two and four wheels.


Great day riding and great company. Cheers all. Next time we gotta see those water falls

It is always good to see more bikers stroking ... and at least a few more have experienced the thrill and joys of two strokerdom! But neva phear! Inline four power will always be here with the Hornets buzzing around ... over hill and dale, far and away, there will always be Hornets at play!

Heh for now you gotta stick to the ZXR

P.S. Why didn't you take out the CB600F instead of the ZXR?

Hmm let me see, it's a loaner and the CB600F definitely isn't a loaner! I did test ride the 600 so its all sweet there.

And besides, at least you were out riding my lil'ol'hornet! Looking forward to having Big Ol'Hornet back again today ... though I think it may be due for its next service very quickly again!

Now hurry up and get your poor little FXR running again ASAP!

[TOTO]

Now hurry up and get your poor little FXR running again ASAP...

.........so we can do the northland loop before you shoot away
