Monday 16th See some of the Wellington roads cruisy ride

[Hawkeye]

As a one off for those out of towners that are coming into Welly for the BIKEOI on the 17th, this is a cruisy ride on the Monday 16th.

Route will be decided on the night based on who (skill level) turns up and the weather.
This will be a CRUISY ride to take the out of towners onto some of our favourite roads. - could be the Takas, Paekak or Coastal (Mirimar loop).

Meeting place will be the Avalon Duck Pond (BIKEOI Hutt meeting place SH2).

Meet around 6.00pm with a DEPART at 6.30pm

Destination will end up somewhere that provides drinks/food and a chance to talk shit.

All cc's and skill levels welcome.
This will not be a ride to show who has the biggest bollocks. It is for the Welly crowd to act as guides to some of our favourite routes in the region.


If your interested, post in here so we get an idea of numbers and just turn up and say hello.
I'm sure a number of the Welly riders will be happy to act as guides.
If the numbers get too big, we may decide to split into smaller groups and head off in different directions. This will be decided on the night.


A similar ride will be available on Tues 17th for those stopping over after the BIKEOI.

It's "Paekak" you northern monkey ;) Short for Paekakariki.

Sounds like an excellent idea.

If you clamp your legs to the tank under heavy braking, that doesn't happen.

As there are no responses from out of towners, I may just see if any turn up. If only locals turn out then I may leave them to it and come to the meet at the P&J.
If any out of towners do turn up then I feel obliged to go on the ride.

[Str8 Jacket]

If any out of towners do turn up then I feel abliged to go on the ride.

Is abliged when you do something dodgy? :dodge:

[XP@]

Hawkeye? dodgy?:shifty: nah:laugh:

Of course he is dodgy! Some of his more memorable quotes...


Henry: Pierce, are you scared?
Hawkeye: Don't be silly. I'm too frightened to be scared.


Insanity is just a state of mind.


Don't worry, I've never lost a patient. I never lose anything. Have you seen my stethoscope?


Forward...Drink!


Ok, so they may be from his alter ego ;-)
