Sorry we missed it, nail in mstrs's rear tyre, hXc can't fit his helmet - and it isn't due to head swelling from the track day either, and i don't like to leave my boy when he isn't well
Most of all, it is because we didn't find out till too late!!!

Take care HXC. Look after yourself.
Remember to get all the new contacts we meet today to come on the ride this week. I am unlikely to make it but I am sure you will have a great turn out. Nice to catch up after the ride.

Yeah sorry we missed it, today was Carissa's first ride in the wind on the plains

Man she can ride!!

Not that we went far, after all it was only her second day in the saddle, but she is a natural

May catch you on Wednesday

Cheers Scott

Talking about rides in the H Bay, who would be a good trainer for my wife (new rider) to get some expert advice from in regards to gear changes etc?
I know what to do, i just cant explain it very well

It is mostly around town, intersections etc?
Once she is on the open road she is doing pretty good

I would appreicate someone that knows what they are talking about to spend an hour or so with her?

Any helpers?

Cheers Scott

This week - a fabulously awesome ride with about 12 bikes including 3-4 new folks. Stunning weather this time too, with a sunset that could take your breath away. 160-odd km at a medium pace.....

**Zukin** · 15th November 2006, 19:38

Good stuff

I was late arriving back in Napier, so I couldnt get my bike and gear ready and too the meeting place in time

Next week hopefully

Cheers Scott

How was the shock set-up John? Did it give you a better ride?
I have lifted the shock on mine but still need to ride it. Hope to get some K's in this weekend. Will keep you posted. When I am happy with it we can swap bikes and see what you think.
