[thehovel]

.Hi Folkes Mods Could you sticky this

Sunday February 24th 2008 Arrive at Karaka Blood Stock Centre By 8:00am.Buy a badge($10),Buy a tee shirt($20)a sausage and a soft drink or coffee. The ride starts at 9:00am, onto the motorway heading north KEEPING TO LANES 2 & 3, leave lane 1 when it appears. When the ride gets to Penrose start moving to the left so that the ride is in lanes 12 as it crosses Newmarket Viaduct to make the Wellesley St off ramp an easy manoeuvre. Down to Queen St via the bus only lane,turn right down Queen St, turn left on to Customs St,then on to Fanshawe St and back on to the motorway. Keep to the left lanes over the Bridge, off at Akoranga Dr and turn right into the Campus Car park.
Scooters,learners and slow bikes assemble at the front at Karaka car park(a space will be there) during the ride keep to the left lane to allow faster bikes keep up to front of the ride.
The speed of the ride is 80km with a ramp up at the start. REMEMBER you at on a Charity ride not a stunt show. Show off your bike not your stupidly. Waving to spectators is mandatory!!!!!!
