Whitebait will be fresh. Heaps of people out whitebaiting when I went through Marokopa the other weekend.

Heads up folks.
Next Tuesday, I have a funeral to go to.
Will try to make it back in time for SASS

I will keep Grandad and nzspokes up to date with txts on the day.

Otherwise it is carry on without me.

Probably won't be there for SASS on Tuesday but if anyone is heading out this Labour weekend let me know. I'd be keen for a ride on Sunday or Monday.

Otherwise I might head along to a group ride I saw on the Meetups app on Sunday.

Is that one where you throw your keys in a bowl?

**f2dz** · 19th October 2014, 20:00

Uhh, not that I know of.

I only recently installed it on my phone. I'm pretty sure you're in one of the groups I'm in too, so you'd know more about it..!

Seem to be a good bunch in there. Been on a couple of rides with them. 2 of the guys, Ribit and Mongolan Fridge that came to Sass last week.

Yea I saw those doods. I think Mongolian is going on the Sunday ride. Not so sure about Ribit.

Well, that's what I'll be doing unless someone wants to go riding somewhere else. I'm not really that bothered about riding that route on Sunday.

Have just heard of a Northern Loop ride on Sunday which I may do. Will be 50 to 600ks. Let you know later in the week. Safe to say this is not a learner friendly ride.

Think I'll pass, unless it's on the shorter end of that range. I don't really wanna be out on the roads too much on the holiday weekend, especially northern ones. Overly cautious maybe, but meh.

Wont be much traffic as the middle day. And we try to travel back roads. We will be doing twin bridges which is an epic road.

Hey aSASSins!

Will be there tomorrow evening! Bike's had rear brake switch and rear tyre replaced, new WOF and rego AND finally got a wash and polish! She's looking good to go out for a blast!

Slowly settling into the new home too, may take a while to get it looking more like a home and less like a warehouse! LOL

Hey, I've only got 4 and a bit hours sleep in me so that's my excuse.

Sounds like a good route to me, I'd be keen.
