Hey there guys and Gals

I am going to be coming over to Wellington to relieve the staff there for a week soon.

My dates and times will be confirmed soon but my planned travell arrangements are Arrive wellington off the ferry on Thursday 28 at around 1630. Then Ill book into my accomodation and be free for the nights ahead until Thurs 5th may when I'll be leaving on the 2130 ferry.

Be nice to meet up with a few of you, still debating if I take my bike on the ferry, should I?

Why would you be on a Biker website saying your coming to Wellington and suggesting you wont be bringing your bike ??
Common MAN, we are talking the takas here !!!! the best bit of road in NZ outside the Waikato, Of course you have to bring your bike.

One bit of advise watch that Whitetrash dude, he will get you completely smashed on Beer while he drinks bugger all.:drinknsin

Cool, getting in just in time for a Real tursday night ride aye.......

a good pie can be found in paraparumu at "Rays pies and fries"..... simply travel from welly, up SH2, head over Haywards, over Piecocks then a quick dash up SH1 to pram...... im sure its the closest place to get a decent feed.........

2) If it weren't for the fact I've already met you, I'd have said you're not actually real, merely a very good A.I. forum bot :yes:
