    got informed by Steelphoeneix today that the ride is tomorrow!!!!
    i have poor reading skills, thinking it was on sunday.

    so now i have a dilemma, ....
    i was going to the shops tomorrow to buy the last of my gear ...pants and be warm and dry on sunday, but the ride is tomorrow. got all the other things, but I am on a budget, and could not just buy all the goodies in one lot.

    I not sure I would last for the ride just in jeans, and surely it would not be Katman approved either , so after spending the last two hours procrastinating I guess I will not come along.... , as i fear i would fall of the bike due to cold and wet. And I was so looking forward to have someone hold my hand whilst (while?) crossing the bridge for the first time on my own. Oh well I guess I just go shopping then..... and sign up for the next ride - with the full gear.

    Now, is that departing Dairy Flat at 10.00am, or be there at 10? My girls netball finnishes on the shore at 9.30, so im going to be cutting it extremely fine to be there by 10.00.00000
    Sounds like a lot of them will be riding 70-80kph speed limit so if your running 100k then you should catch up easy enough :-)

    Otherwise just head to the Mangawhai pub i believe thats where they will end up.

    The cold and wet are farrrr less likely to cause an accident, than crossing the harbour bridge on a bike whilst holding someones hand.
