MFSC lives on!
Some of choose to thank the maker in other ways, you know, dear Mr Suzuki, ta for a great bike to ride on this fine beautiful day!
Every day above ground is a good day!:
Actually easter is not a christian thing, don't read about bunnies and Easter eggs in the bible, in fact you'll never find the word easter in the bible - Easter goes back to a lot of different things none christian practices or customs - one being Eastoria; a fertility festival, hence the bunnies and eggs.
Its an adulteration of christian and Jewish tradition with capitalism and eastern mythology
The observation of the death and resurrection of the messiah, the same time as the Jewish celebration of deliverance from Egypt; is on the fourteenth day of Nisan (a lunar month which starts on the first full moon in the latter part of March and the first part of April) which I believe was last Wednesday. A big feed with candles, wine and roast lamb, bitter herbs and sweet herbs, unleavened bread, singing, toasts, good friends and thanksgiving.
Part of the observance was to clean your house out - a symbol of getting rid of sin in your life - of course that time of year in the northern hemisphere is spring, hence the term 'spring cleaning'
Just thought I'd clear that up - in case anyone wanted to know![]()
Lifes Just one big ride - buckle up or hang on
I f#$ked a catholic girl once...twice..+ *cough* anyways.... I purge my Hyosung of its sins in the carbs and exhaust on Sundays
So wheres the ride ?
I'll probably do the Coro tomorrow, if any one is interested. Normally meet up with a couple of friends at BP in Ngaruawahia - does 9 am sound good, any one interested in tagging along?
We're not fast riders, but don't stop every 5 minutes either. Happy to wait for slower riders at given points.
Lunch at Coromandel, cupa tea at Whangamata?

I am super keanI will just have to check over Lucy and make sure all her moving parts are fine.. I had to stop for a bunch of brain dead youths running across the road short of a stoppy on the ride home last night in the dark, I was not ammused. (As exspressed by turning around and offering advice)
Troubled youths thease days.. It is quite sad when the only control they have in there lifes is jumping infront of traffic to make to slow down / brake
I'm probably going to do SH22 tomorrow afternoon - south to north, leaving Hammertron about 1.30pm weather being favourable as seems likely...route as attached...I will not be blasting it like a crazy loon but if you want a relaxed pootle by all means come along. Could meet at Gull servo about 1.45pm....PM or post here if interested...oh and no doubt I will be giving thanks that I am out riding...in the true spirit of Easter...

Any one welcome

I will just weld on a stick to the clutch lever on the crank housing, No problems!
Coro going to be a fast one or a slow one ? :P (Just trying to gauge if I will be all by my self) hehe
Just make sure you stay on your side of the road at all times, the bank on the other side is always rock and it hurts!have a good ride guys.

I don't ride that fast, you'll be OK, I've ridden with you before
If I feel like cutting loose on the windies, then afterwards I'll slow up and wait for others to catch up, likewise if anyone else feels a bit keen they'll slow up.
probably just 3 of us so far
