Manawatu Friday Night Ride. (Be there or be in the square).

[NZsarge]

It was indeed. Mark had it out for a demo ride. We may be seeing a black one appearing! You feeling better? I'm working all weekend, bugger!

Still feel shitty, might just sneak out to woodville in the car to check out the bikes for 10 minutes then leg it back home. BTW, who's Mark?

That's a shame dude (and you too Al), it looks we're getting an awesome day for the Coast to Coast - makes a nice change!

Yeah it sucks big time, was looking forward to it too, would have been my first C 2 C. Sounds like you're going over the saddle at some point, if I can face the drive over I might park up at the place we usually stop at the bottom of the saddle to look at the bikes going past, Nurofen cold and flu rocks!

apparently it alternates routes each yr .. shannon > track or feilding > saddle so since last yr was shannon direction if they do alternate it should be feilding > saddle this yr

Yeah I picked up that it was the saddle this year 'cause it was mentioned on the C 2 C thread on McRides.

Enjoy the chaos out there guys and be safe with the crazies who ride once a year,usually c2c or toy ride,shit that is almost me lately.

Suddenly working Sat for 6 hours seems silly with rides and weather improving,still might hit the road after work and tiki tour after 3ish today.

Great ride alright - awesome night out. Had a fantastic ride back following Supersonic over the track! Nope, ya SV is not too loud - sounded great!

Yeah that was a awesome run over the track. Starting to remember that road more and more now. So its a good sound track then? It does have a bit more up and go in the slower corners and from the front set it sounds awesome. Did you see that maigpie bird near take out my front tyre? Bloody thing.

Thanks to all the others of an awesome friday night ride. Great to meet some more people and great to see more bikes too. Might see some of you all today at the coast coast.

NZsage hope you are feeling better soon.

Yep, real close one. See ya at the coast soon.

Just wondering if anyone had some great ideas for a Friday Night Silly Season Ride. Finding a quiet stop of point could be a challenge. Maybe someone knows a private venue or such.

Would Ashhurst Domain Cafe be available / suitable?

[cowboyz]

fusion in ashhurst is nice. Probably not that crowded as there are never crowds in ashhurst!

I will probably not be there this friday anyhow cause I got about 400 things to do on friday. suck.

Hey Guys,

Just got the new bike (VFR800). Would be keen to come out in the new year when I get back from leave and join you guys for a ride (or a regular series of rides even).
