    The GPX has a WOF (although not according to carjam?) but Marie hasn't paid the rego (she rides it everyday not me figured she would take care of it!).

    Tried Ham Honda they have an XR250 but not so sure about riding a dual purpose for the first time while sitting a test...

    Could rego the GPX but that would mean finding money that i dont have from somewhere.
    Road and sport have a GN250 for day hire at $70 I think. Otherwise someone may be able to loan you a bike. what day and what time??

    Friday 10th of June. Will need a bike from roughly 1pm - 3:30pm. Don't want to be a pain and borrow someones bikes so will see what other stores have. $70 day hire is what it would cost to register the GPX anyway (or close enough!). Have a week to organise it so no panic yet.

    Hi 5150, welcome. there are a number of rides available in Hamilton - Ulysses are quite active, (Jim generally meets with us at Te rapa tavern Wednesday nights) Honda ran a Thursday night ride i think and Boyds have regular rides?? (both tend to be faster paced rides) and We (LOR) generally ride Sunday mornings afternoons. If you want to search back through this thread and the preceeding thread (search back a long way) we are pretty much a social group with the emphasis being on the ride and making the destination safely. (We are not there to race) We have a number of female riders and pillions that come along and while the leaders are very good riders and travel at higher speeds we have a group (me, myself and I) that travel at the back to match the slowest speed. we try not to lose anyone and accommodate all levels of skills and size of bikes. rides stop for a coffee break along the way and are generally weather or event dependent. More often than not if a ride is organised it will go in the calendar section (the one on Sunday didnt for some reason?). Be nice to see you along or at the "clubrroms" on a Wednesday some time (bout 5.30-6pm), generally all travel by car to the clubrroms on Wednesday so you may find us at a table by all the TV screens if you come along.

    Yes I'm bored today and counting down to 5ish!!

    Murray Ulysses is doing nothing this weekend. Looking at a ride to recover the tag and to plant it back in the Waikato.

    The Honda hamilton rides were Thursday evenings, but they haven't sent out a ride notification in quite a few weeks; I think they've gone into hibernation for winter as it gets dark early now.

    As for the Boyd rides, things have changed. Gone are the glory days of cannon-ball runs watching Glenn wring the last few revs out of a VFR; it's a rather sedate, scenic tour these days. My Dad beat them all (myself excluded) to Nikau Cave ... in a Hiace van. Do the maths. Some quick guys still go on the over-nighter's though. Either way, get hold of Glenn and go on their email list; he quite often sends out last-minute rides like the run over to Browny's cafe near Katikati on Sunday 22nd May.

    Thanks for the welcome.

    I know Glenn at Boyds very well and occasionally go on his rides or trips. By clubrooms I take it you mean Te Rapa Tavern
    I will be keen to make to most or at least some of your guys rides. Either with the wife on the back or by my self. So look forward to meeting you all. This week and weekend is kind of already planed out for me, but next Wednesday night is a definate starter for me followed by a weekend ride

    See you all out there
    I've spent my money on bikes, booze and babes. The rest I've wasted....

    Don't worry, it will come to you.
    I have been thinking of something along the lines of...

    It is a shame the Trumpys need an extra cylinder to try and keep up with the harleys....but since you are faster than me it seemed a little pointless LOL
