THIS IS NOT A RACE...This is most important as we don't want anybody crashing cause it will be a fun day out.
Go at your own pace, there will be people who will wait for you.
Make sure your bike is road legal ie: warrant, rego, chain oiled and adjusted, tyres the correct pressure......

The plan is to gather at Caltex Rimutaka Upper Hutt for the trip over the Rimutakas to Featherston.
Townies: Meet at the caltex truck stop Hutt road Kaiwharawhara 9:45am for 10:00am depature. We'll ride down SH2 to Plimmerton, over Greys Rd to Pahatanui, over the Haywars and to Rimutex to meet everyone else.
All others meet at Caltex Rimutaka 11:00am for 11:30am departure.

LETS MAKE THIS A GREAT DAY

Also looking for experienced riders to help out with back markers and to share riding tips and any questions the newbies might ask.

Please pop your name on the attendance thing in the calender here for the April 15th ride.
Cheers peeps.

Put the calendar event up and we'll go for a ride anyway. What do you reckon?

**Terminated** · 22nd March 2007, 21:01

Thanks Trudi, look forward to it.
Heads Up and Enjoy

**Trudes** · 22nd March 2007, 21:02

Ok, when do you reckon for a date? Easter?

**Madness** · 22nd March 2007, 21:04

Maybe pick a date and wait for the masses of inconvenience posts or maybe put up a poll?

I'm easy, but that's another story.

**Trudes** · 22nd March 2007, 21:08

hehe, umm, ok a poll it is. I hate making decisions for other people (

dear husband), I rather like democracy, so I'm off to try to find how to do a poll, wish me luck.
Oh, and so far we've got about 4 offers of help and 1 newbie! LOL. Come on newer peoples, it's fun, not scary at all!!!, Honest!

**Trudes** · 22nd March 2007, 21:16

poll done, so go for it kids, you can vote as many times as you like, so if it rains we can possibly do it the next popular day....??

**Madness** · 22nd March 2007, 21:19

**Trudes** · 22nd March 2007, 21:32

You can vote for all the options in this poll, if you like all the days

Great idea because it's during my 2 week study break and I may even have a new jacket by then! I'll be keen any of those days - I only voted for the 8th but any suit actually.
