I just finished organising a mountain bike ride with a large group for tomorrow. Would probably be rude if I ditched them now.

Sounds good but my daughter has her netball grand final Saturday morning.

A gay man goes to the Doctors and has some tests run.

The doctor comes back with devastating news “im sorry, you have aids.”

The gay man is distraught “doc what can I do?”

The Doctor says “eat 4 curry sausages, 1 head of cabbage, 12 jalapeno peppers, 40 walnuts, half a box of grape nut cereal and a litre of prune juice.”

The gay man says “will that cure me?”

“No” says the Doc “but it will give you a better understanding of what your ass is for!

BBQ RULES
We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity . When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

Routine…
(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert..
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill – beer in hand.
(4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three meter exclusion zone where the exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the interference of the woman.

Here comes the important part:
(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.

More routine…
(6) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.
(7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat

Important again:
( THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.

More routine…
(9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
(10) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.

And most important of all:
(11) EVERYONE PRAISES THE MAN AND THANKS HIM FOR HIS COOKING EFFORTS.

(12) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed “her night off”, and, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there’s just no pleasing some women.

They wont worry about your helmet Moto :laugh:

TB

I shouldn’t think so too as they are both AS certified complete with the stickers, sewn in labels and god knows whatever else, it’s Tyne that’s the overseas helmet importing law breaker :laugh:

It’s not Police you have to worry obout with these helmuts but insurance companies. God forbid you ever have need to make claim on third party insurance for a head injury but if you do good luck when they find your helmut is not AS approved.

As long as they don’t start whining about AS helmets and indicators I’m happy for them to do their thing. Although I was going to give Tyne her second lesson (on her new bike) near the Bay tomorrow, I may have to scrap that now

Cheers for the info.

you know I have never been asked about my helmet?? they probably see the sticker and dont bother??

It’s all about the attitube test, “Don’t give them reason to ask”.

Also not giving tickets at the moment because of industrial action, so if someone give you one, call them a SCAB for me. :angry:

And lets be real. Merriman is another sheep shagging Kiwi that we started calling one of own when he started winning.

OBT, great fishing all year round.

By the way, them KTM’s are still ORANGE, but I can’t help notice even KTM seem to be covering that hideous colour with mor and more stickers.

[Scott SouthwellMember]

Then as I said you’ll love the many km’s of new single we have been riding out there. Can’t promise no other bikes in ear shot. There will be the sound of a DRZ up in front.

That single track would rate as some of the crappiest I have ever ridden! I didn’t enjoy it, but I guess maybe I’m spoiled from riding nice clean single more often than not! Come to think of it, it was that flogged out it was wide enough to get a 4WD down it, so it hardly rates as single track!

ECKS for you, gees some people :laugh:

TB

Yes TB, it can be seen that when the going gets tuff, the tuff just ride it out and the rest, well seems they ride WR250F’s, :ohmy: :laugh:

For those not in the know, it is one of the over-used tracks behind the Clarence motocross track or in that area anyway.

So much for this thread about the new KTMs… it was gone before it started really! :laugh:

THis is old bulls Ecks, when have they ever stayed on track. You will love the S/T we have found that run through that area know.

[quotethat was the best part of the ride was following a couple of old school xr600s and they were on it blocking each other and everything it was a bit whooped out to it was great :woohoo:[/quote]

Rocket, you will be happy to know we have done some scouting in this area and have found some trails that will make parts of this ride alot more technical. Hope the light bike riders don’t complian.

[Scott SouthwellMember]

I think you’ll find 138kg is the wet weight ready to ride with 10L of fuel. Yes still heavy but I still remember on the Hill End ride after 2 days off riding when we hit some technical tracks it was the guys on the light weight 250 S/T weapons who had a cry and the heavy DRZ/XR riders lapped it up. Go figure. maybe you guys just arn’t man enough and need to pump the f#*k up.

[Scott SouthwellMember]

Best option would be to trade the 450 on a 525/530, instant big bore.

[Scott SouthwellMember]

Ah yes, I remember the day’s when Shane Watts would carve up all comers on one of these things. Looks like a good project too.
