Hey All,
im in nead of a shortish ride. I might have a hangover, but that hasn't stopped me before. Any offers ??? [moto]
Probably doesn't suit you guys - I was planning on heading south for a long ride tomorrow but gotta get back by mid arvo' to pick up wifey from her "pamper" weekend at sanctuary cove [roll]
Any interest out there in a southern ride ???
Hey jukie what's the plan?
I will be in but i will need a chaperon ,May be Dez, if we can get him out of bed.
I am heading out, what's your plan Jukie/Rob?
I want to be home by 10:30, got things to do later during the day.
Otherwise I might join you Wayne, but I was heading out at 8am for just a couple of hours.
A ride in the morning no time or real plans. What do you guys wanna do
My plan is above, I need to home by 10:30 or so.
You call it Jukie,
early start is good for me.
i'm with Mattys time things to do later.
What about 8:00am at berowra mobil servo?
I'm gonna stay south, cause it takes 2 hours of riding in suburbia to get there.
And I don't have much time tomorrow. Sorry :(
Ok so what do you want to robs ???
I'm going for a spin with my two boys, but thats in the arvo, taking them up Macquarie Pass to the pie shop, but like I said thats tomorrow arvo.
Mmick
If you want to join us feel free mmick

... and we'd have another hour on top of that in reverse.
Anyway sounds like there is three rides on tomorrow so everybody should be happy.
George, the Boss said she is happy with that ... looks like we will see a few of you in the morning.
OK so 8 o'clock it is.
You may here me coming now......
did someone take there baffles out?
You know I never mind going anywhere for a ride but I don't have lots of time tomorrow.
RNP is about 20 mins from my doorstep vs Old Road which is 60 mins from my doorstep x 2 plus ride
means I'd have to be there at 7am to back for 10:30.
So sozza but I'll stay in my neck of the roads and catch peoples for a groupie spin in a couple of weekends.
Happy riding [moto]

No just done the cliche conversion.
Boring I know [thumbsup]
But gee it sounds PHAT
And goes better............ [evil]
Now MR [leo] leave me alone.
Hey Matty I'll be starting the pig around 7:45 so listen for me you may hear it from your place ;D ;D ;D
Different cans?
Doesn't yours have a full 70mm system with Titanium cans?

Love the Carbon Fibre Termis [thumbsup]
Had a nice little, too short spin through the park and back.
Saw Wayne (I think) on the way back through, not much traffic in either direction.
Found another friend at Bald Hill who tagged along on the way back.
Oh and saw Mr [leo] neat the Apple Pie shop with hair dryer in hand waiting to catch the unaware rider.
Hope you guys had a good morning.
Yep, was me Matty.
Quite an interesting ride. Saw the crashed Yamaha as reported by LHL in the other tread - it was VERY tightly wedged under an armco barrier. Also saw your friend with the hair dryer hiding in the bushes in the "new" 60kph section. And to top it off there were trucks all over Mac Pass painting new white lines ...on a Sunday no less (they were probably getting the road ready for a certain Victorian visitor).
Ya reckon?? [roll] Be nice if they give the [leo] the day off whilst I'm there too. ;D
STRIKE 2 FOR JUKIE
sorry guys i have been ummming and arrrhhing to tell your guys. The ride didn't go as plan today. The heading pretty much says it all. Jukie and Me and Betty and Mark had a bit of a meeting with the gravel a massive pot hole at Kulnura Service station. So Betty and Mark came off rather alright, not so much Jukie and Me :'(. So a call to the insurance company in the next day or too, to sort stuff out, and then im just waiting for the pain and the buising to reach it maximum, probably in the next day or too. Gotta love those Italian leathers i got [thumbsup]
Well Well
We all meet at mobile Berowra
Nick on an awesome Duc, Kaz in the cage with Dom junior.
And Nicks mates 3 or 4 can't remember on rice rockets.
Me , Betty and Jukie, that girl's turning me to drink [drink]
Headed up to Wollembi for coffee [coffee]
A tad foggy up through the old road no [leo] all day what i saw.
And set my best land speed record on the way back ;D ;D. [evil]
Now the day did not go of drama free. :'(
The picture below is an indication of an event that i am not able to disclose due to a confidentiality agreement.
But all will be revealed. ;)

i think i have proven that 5km in that area is too slow and the bike has no power to keep it upright and straight. [roll]

I was glad I could help but don't want to have to do it again ;) :-*

Bambino and I also set our own land speed record in the cage. Bambino was too busy playing his Nintendo DS to even notice. [roll]
We pull in to the garage and Bambino asks "Are we home already?". That's kids for you. :-\
Shit Jules, hope you and jukie are better soon. Gravel sux, I know I've been there and have a nice tank ding to show for it.

Ouch that sucks Jukie hope you are okay

Missed out on the Monster ride I didn't see Rob's sms until too late
Went down to Mt Bulli escarpment Mountain bike riding with a bunch of mates

She sure can steer good
Hey Jules,
Had to call as soon as I found out. Glad you are okay a little brusied and battered.
Jukie sounds like she might need a little bit of straigthening, forks may have twisted in the triples.
Hope your bruises aren't too black & blue.
Matty xxx...

That's what it felt like to me in the short distance I rode it.
Nothing looked bent so should be an easy fix.
On another note :
It's a bit of a worry when 50% of the riders on a trip goes down....... :o
Maybe Rob S & I were the lucky 50% :-\

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Yeah, it goes alright for a shopping trolley. [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [roll] :P ;D
Nothing like a Turbo to make your shopping trolley go faster. [moto]
Hey Jukie.Bummer! Funny , i was doing the same thing a couple of days earlier !!!Know how you guys feel. We are kinda in the same club . The lying on the road wondering what just happened club.!Glad your fine.When the day comes we meet , we'll have something in common we can talk about.!
thanks all [thumbsup]and Gino yes i know what caused it, but like you said what just happen thing and im lying on the gravel ohh well feel a bit sore and down today :'(, looking at pictures of my Jukie, gee iam a girl so sad about hurting my little baby boy
I hate reading about people going down - for whatever reason. I'm just glad that all are safe and no major injuries.
Hope you recover quickly Jukie and that everyone's pride & joy's are also back to their shiny best soon!
ps. In hindsight - I should modify that first sentence...something just not quite right....
sorry to hear about your little oops.. hope all ok, as someone said, bikes are easy to repair.. did a big ride on the weekend as well, out to Lithgow, Ilford, Sofala, Oberon & Taralga for the night.. great roads and can recommend it as a good weekenderr. Taralga Hotel is a great place, good food and nice people.. came back via Wakefield and watched some bike racing for a few hours then home along the back roads...
pride i dont really give a dame about is just my little jukie that make me sad, and i can see the insurance is going to be a nightmare too, bloody QBE are going to make things hard for me [bang], so im going to let Mark sort it out. The guy was raven on about how Frasers at Concord will look after me, yeh right [roll]
QBE are not easy, good luck with it all...
thanks ozducati, i just haven't got the patience for them, they don't want the customer to get the good service they just want them to get a cheap price and a dodge workmanship [bang] [bang].
So who's better, Shannons?
Haven't had to do a claim with QBE but they have always had the cheapest premium for me.
same here with QBE, i think the guy i was speaking to was a bit of a D##K H**D, as Mark said the other people in QBE were a bit nicer and understanding. Anyone would have thought the guy has shares in Fraser or something
i think your keyboard is playing up juls, did you mean to type dickhead?
and yeah matty, shannons are better, at least for me they have been.
paul
Might have to look at them.
Though there premium was higher than than QBE by a few hundred from memory.

They are all CNT's Shannons told me my SLR was only worth 10k Pffffffff D**K H**Ds [roll]
Wow Jukie, i wish i could call my S4R poor little baby girl , but doesn't quite fit right! More like "My poor wild animal beast all splattered on the road"
So gino how are you feeling are you ok ???
Yep , kinda ok. Bike's going to Goanlochs at 10 tomorrow .Fingers crossed its not a write off!

He just needs to remember not to ring for insurance quotes from Matty's ... at least his camera is covered.
Sweet... gotta love the old school stuff.
should be back from the painters next week [thumbsup]
I'll cross also but can't hold my breath.
