    Smile, you're on Candid Ride Report.Great day, great company, great behaviour. Great roads, great ice cream.No wonder we get lots of Klingons and refugees from other marques. It's 'cos we're good.Highlight of the day? Probably Jimmy Liu, keeping up with the big boy's toys with a DR125: a better advert for how hard you can cane a wee Suzuki without something blowing there ain't. Here he is with his faithful steed, the "Stealth K1200S", cunningly disguised as a wee chook-chaser, to confuse the law. Note the external fuel tank and air-to-air refuelling funnel for missions deep behind enemy lines.Stealth.jpgCompulsory looksee stop.Looksee.jpgTo check where they were going.Looksee1.jpgWhen they got there, it was nosebag time.

    Have to agree with Jim. It was nice to be useful even as a klingon. Also a bonus to catch up with Alex and Kerry Andrews. Hope I can ride again with the register ( coming from the worst behaved ) soon.

    Thanks for a brilliant, well organised days ride Bwucie. We have never been to Kawhia so were really looking forward to the run on Enzo. We enjoyed fantastic company, scenery, roads and weather. Was great to catch up with Paul C (uncamoose) again after many years. BTW Paul, thanks for the tip on the tight right handers and of course Bwucie for your observations too. Never too proud to take on advice from observant TEC's. Thanks to everyone for making this ride a little ripper.Cheers,Alex and KerryPS: Bwucie - warning light at 250km, filled up at 455km with 21.79L !!!
