What a weird day...first 4 blokes on bikes turn up at my joint, cause they are going for a ride....but i aint going! Weird!
Then the group of 4, ends up being 2 groups of 2, because Matty's fork seals had given up under the relentless pressure put upon them by a mighty MT-01 and Matty's gorilla sized weight!!!, so him and his mate, Jason, on his "Mardi Gras" themed CBR1000RRRRRRRRRRRR pirate bike (you should see it, more colour than a Lonney Tunes cartoon!), decide they are going to go for a gentle cruise....and Mikey & Gazza, decide they are gonna hit the hills for the normal, cut sick in the twisties caper!
Jay Jay & Spook dont even turn up, so i go back inside, thinking that life sucks...and that i really should of gone with Mikey & Gazza...so i hit the forum, and find out that Jay Jay is just a bum, and had slept in, and was rallying his resuorces to get his $hit in one spot, i tell him, dont bother, the crew have bailed, etc, etc...
So then i realise i need fag's, and decide that fcuck it, i cant deny myself any longer, i must ride, even if it is only to the shop, even if it kills me, and sets my leg getting back better, by a week!
Do the testing thing, get on each bike, to see which one works best with a bung leg, sort that out, gear up, and go forth to the shops....get 50 metres down the road, and realise immediately, that i am in no discomfort, unlike standing, or walking...ride straight past the shops...head for the twisties!
Do about 30km's, come home, get all excited, get on the forum, tell the world that i can freakin ride, and decide that another ride is in order....IMMEDIATELY!, tell the world, blah, blah, tell my son, gear up properly, ring the missus, tell her the good news, tell her i am coming to say hi....there are twisties inbetween home and her work...It's ok boys!
Just as i am getting on the bike, my phone rings, gloves off, answer, it's Jay Jay....Arrrrgh, Spook & Me are just leaving for a ride now, what are you doing??? Meet me at My missus's work at Mt Barker in 45....we will sort the ride stuff out once we meet...hang up, take off like a rat up a drainpipe, and ride to Mt Barker...the longish way...
After meeting, Jay Jay and me, go get Spook, and we take off on about a 100km ride, through the Twisties, for an Iced Coffee....
Shoot back towards town, part ways about half way....my intention, to go home the fast and boring way...this lasted about 30 seconds, and when i got to the Freeway entry, i took the side road instead, and ended up doing another 100km's in the twisties by myself, which were very much deserted at 4pm on a sunday...strange...got home at 5pm, with the biggest smile on my dial since just before i decided to go skipping at 4am on Thursday Morning!
Weather was awesome, everyone got to get a decent ride in...be it in smaller groups!
Thanks Jay Jay & Spook for coming for a spin, and sorry i was such a big sook to start with Mikey & co....
Sunday rides....there should be more of it!
