Morning folks  Slackboy and I are going to head around the bays this lunchtime on our red weapons. This will be my first outing on my new roadie, so will be nice and casual  All welcome. We'll leave Freyberg at 12:15, so may hook up with a bunch there, if there is one.

There was a decent sized bunch today. Thanks to Kirky and his mate for pulling us all around to Breaker Bay. I had teething trouble with the bike as my seat slowly but surely went down. No excuse for not giving way at the roundabout in Lyall Bay though  Skived off to Burkes after that to lay a bit more cash down... I rotated the bars up a bit while I was there, which made for a much more comfy ride back to work.
I'm now waiting with bated breath for Oli to come back and get the thing set up properly. I think I'll stick with the commuter until then  Nice and light though, and soooo red
