Woohoo! All Hornets! The ride was... interesting, the food was GREAT! I think peach slush is my favourite so far. Peach slush with pearls next time, hmm!

I hope a certain someone stayed on the road on the way home.

I had a great time tonight, just what I needed after yesterday! (22 hours from lying on a highway to riding two-up. Truly I am hardcore)

Thanks loads to Gremlin for putting up with me on the back, and being a cheeky bastard

Well it made it to the motorway on tarmac (after going out on the pedestrian crossing following me

), lost them behind me in traffic after the on-ramp

Yeah, but only because there was no other option....

Operation Swarm was an unmitigated success! Four Big Ol'Hornets turned up and 6 bikers! Have to say, that was a pretty spiffing turn out

Was surprised no one else turned up .. Poor GXSR Trace, she was waiting for us at Blush, but my usual pootling ways ...

Did the Mt Eden to No Tree Hill route, took some quick piccies and down to the St Heliers GP before turning up at Blush. Gremlin decided to get up to his usual tricks ... I was coming down from Mt Eden and thought "I wonder if Gremlin will get up to his usual tricks and there will be a rozzer nearby".

And wouldn't ya knows it, there was one parked at the bottom of the hill!

A bit of off-road action and I'm sure EoBE was wondering what the hell she signed up for!

Blush was the usual ice slush affair, but this time with a twist - copious amounts of food was ordered! My usual ninja eclectic ways ensured I got confused with the menu. In the end, chips, squid rings, meat on skewer sticks and other mains turned up. Delicious!

Once the end was upon us, zeocen looked like he was about to turn into a pumpkin ... we stuck Gremlin with the bill and dined and dashed from him!

Greentea thought the ride was too short and demanded we go the long way home!

So whom am I to deny what my pillion wants? Gremlin and EoBE with Badger8 went back to Mt Wellington via the conventional route, moronway.

Great ride. Great night. Great company. Only regret was Gremlin turning up

Piccies to come!

**gijoe1313** · 9th March 2009, 23:25

Where there is filth, they are there!
Babies cry! Dogs cower! Old people scared!
Loathing and loutish they crouch,
defiling sacred places and scowling faces ..
Biker scum! Beware!

Pic 1 : "Mummy, are those filthy biker scum?"
Pic 2 : "Mummy, is that a steenk'n badger?"
Pic 3 : Gremlin's head gets too big for his britches
Pic 4 : Compulsory anime/manga high angle bird's eye view shot
Pic 5 : God in his resplendent glory, gazes down upon His handiwork and thinks "what are those filthy biker scum doing on my creation!?"

Who what?

Gremlin liked the off road section of the ride... pretty sure the pillion did too... "You Bastard" was uttered, along with laughter... then Zeocen called Gremlin a fucking maniac...

These are compliments aren't they?

Hey, I enjoyed it!

Anyway, I thought Hornets were closet motards?
