    saw banditrider turning off for the saddle road but by that time my tinted visor was making things a bit of a mission so just followed lee through the gorge and home

    good ride, enjoyed it, except for the panic when i thought i had no front brakes

    yeah that was a nice little sojourn, nice in the cool evening air too

    didnt get lost but did coast into my driveway due to lack of fuel.

    nice ride. route was just what my new front needed to scrub it in and get used to the new handling. Really nice road bonez led us on after the pub. Nice wee pootle where everyone stayed in line and enjoyed the scenery. Invaded Mrs C for coffee and shit talking about 86 and his long snake....

    oh yeah. sorry about that. Got the pleasure of seeing a fucking mint bike ride up the road while I was testing out a honda twin. I can see why one would want a V twin but just not my cup of hot chocolate. Nice bike though. I have to be nice being as you let me ride it (trusting lad)

    Not to mention furry little Australians, sounds as if you were lucky to get out of there alive

    Great ride tonight apart from a bit of a rough patch on the track. Good to see so many out there and that venue was mint indeed.

    Me neither. You do suit the Honda, but I think you looked pretty flash on the 14 too. Go on, compromise and get a red one.

    I was thinking about the saddle, even indicated left so I could turn around and go back to follow bones over but the bladder was about ready to explode so made hast through the gorge home for pee pee...

    I knew it was you behind me but couldn't hang around all day for the honda ya know...

    Something about riding at that time of night, everything seems to flow. I almost felt more comfortable not being able to see the road surface so well, just the put the bike into corners and felt happy, apart from the hiccups..

    Right off to work I go..

    It is a totally awesome feeling riding nice roads at night. We went through Buller gorge in the dark and it was a surreal feeling. Can't wait to get back and do it in daylight now

    yeah no worries, once we hit the gorge i could see you gradually disappearing into the distance; i couldnt see a bloody thing except with the visor up, and that was asking for an eyeful of creepy crawlies was a bit better once i got back out the other side though
