Actually, I have been offered a squirt on a friends 12R - might have to go see him today.

Apparently he was quite possibly pulling a speed of 3 digits starting with 2 when he passed us the other week on the way out to Clevedon.

That was a freaking nice sounding bike too.. If you have been offered then you should take him up on it! I love riding the 1100, just because the frame is of my stature, I dare say my upgrade may be the litre bikes. But that all depends on whether I'm mature enough to have that power when the time comes

Just had another look at the attending list, looks like it's gonna be a banger of a ride!!

Excellent! See ya there then!

I can now confirm that Madison and I WILL be attending this event... My first 'long' ride... well I am very excited! Also, Squiggles will be coming along too (with his 750, which is the sum of the graveyard of 250s in his shed

See you all there!

**Maverick** · 3rd March 2007, 20:41

I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow, a good selection of new and familar faces it seems

Once again, I have ceased consumption of my favourite hops based product due to a ride.

Oh the sacrifices we make!

See you all in the morning!

Sorry guys! Can't come anymore. The girl has rather bad food poisoning as a result of sampling too many dodgy food stalls at the Lantern Festival. Can't in good conscience piss off on my bike, especially as it worries her anyway.

Sorry lads, was rather looking forward to this.

Oh well, it'll give me a chance to do that oil change anyway, I've just rolled over 500kms since the rebuild.

Have fun! Rubber side down!

And you somehow weaned yourself off two stroker smoker products as well - what next? Giving up breathing? Deciding to shuffle off this mortal coil while lying in bed? Allow a hardworking and trusty ride called Daisy to slip through your cold, lifeless hands?

Oh you are a callous and cruel fellow to deny yourself the spice of life, the breath of passion, the homage to heroic deeds, and moreso, the effervescent zephyr breath of the need to ride!

But since you have Rosy...

I guess I can forgive you,
For Daisy will not,
I guess I can keep you company,
For Daisy will not,
I guess I can ride with you,
And in this, Daisy will have to!

I gave up pies a week ago...

What more is there to sacrifice??

I think your chinese girlfriend has become more kiwified! Usually asians have cast-iron stomachs since it's a survival thing from those "interesting times". I would have turned up at the Lantern Festival, but I guess with my current riding outfit, they would've had wild stereotypical ideas of Yakuza/Triad/etc. ideas ...

Never mind, we know you have the biking spirit in ya! Just remember to wash your hands free of oil before going anywhere near your girly ... the japanese girly won't mind as much as the chinese one though

Oi! I thought you going to bed! Sacrificing sleep time also now?

When did I say I was going to bed?

I don't need sleep - I've had 9 hours in the last 3 days!

I might go and rest my eyes for a bit though...

Give her lots of room temperature, FLAT lemonade.

Also, she will require plenty of sleep, and loads of quiet.

Hell, you might as well just come riding - YAY!
