Rightio you SA fizzers, it's faaaarking Summer! WOOP! The weather is awesome, the roads are waiting....and i want to see all you SA fizzers for a Sunday ride...

The date....Sunday November 27!

Kick off.... 9.30am meet at Macca's on Magill road for a quick coffee, before a 10am ride start....

Stops....Lobethal for more coffee, Then Strathalbyn for a bite to eat, then home...

Who's keen?
 
Oh yeah, i will run at the front of the ride, and i suspect Mikey will play the sweeper role, making sure we dont lose anyone...

Pace will be sensible, not silly.

:thumbup:
 
Geez....am completely taken aback by everyone's enthusiasm for this ride.... :rolleyes:

So far it's me riding by myself....

:(

BUMP!
 
If SA meant "South Austin" or "San Antonio" in Texas (U.S.A.) then I'd be on it. Maybe if I attach pontoons to the FZ6, put on a paddle tire, bring plenty of fuel in tow...
 
You choose the one day off ill have in two weeks. I am going to be wrecked due to the alcohol therapy the night before.

Sorry mate I know I wont be in the right state of mind to ride with you this time.

At least you responded! :thumbup:
 
Haven't been in here for a while. How ya going boyz!!!

Couldn't join you Sunday, was out chasing a little white ball around a golf course.. Mannum Golf course to be exact. Pretty sure that I saw you Wolfman, riding through Woodside around 3:20 Sunday Arvo. Great day for it, the weather was perfect.

Nice to hear from you Dave....

A bit belated, but I (hopefully) pick my FZ6 tomorrow, I'd seriously LOVE to come riding when I get a weekend off! (new to SA, so it'll be nice to find some good roads too!)

Someone get the red carpet! Quick!

Sorry about the over enthusiasm, but we aint had a new SA member of the forum for a long time....

Mate, you are more than welcome to join me for a few rides, i get out on most weekends, and a normally a week day or two if i am lucky, most weeks...

Would be well pleased to show you some of the Adelaide Hills fantastic roads...at a fun but sensible pace of course...

WELCOME!

I have driven a few of the roads going the back way from Adelaide to Mt Barker, Belair rd etc, so would enjoy riding some of those roads (when I get my bike!)

As for the 'fun but sensible pace' comment, I no longer ride to prove anything, but ride for the love of riding.

Cheers,
Rick

P.S. Has anyone else had the dreaded steering head bearing problems reported by our brethren from across the sea? Thanks!

First up, re ride pace, that is up to every individual, any good group shouldn't put pressure on anyone to ride faster or slower than they feel is safe for them, and other road users....if you wanna rode like a squid, go do that by yourself in my opinion...I don't wanna pick you up!

So I am sure our pace will be just fine...

Re bearing, I replaced mine at 35000 km's and they were totaled! Replace them with All Balls tapered roller bearings and all is fixed....better bearings than OEM, and cheaper too.
