Howdy folks!

It's that time of year again, where riders from near and far all meet at the beach, and ride... to the beach!

A little different this year, instead of riding to Mercury Bay, the ride will be winding up in sunny Whangamata.

Visit the Rotary website for more details!

See you there (I'll be the one on either 2 wheels of 2 strokeness or 4 of ambulanceness) for a good days riding.

(And Woodybee, check ya bloody fuel level this time!)

This is a great day out folks, I definately recommend it!

Sadly for me, my student budget doesn't allow for it this time :weep:

Well as the starts just 5mins down the road - I's a gonna go from the start.

Rotary are hoping for 300+ bikes. So we could get lost in the crowd.

As I'm a big girl on the big white bike I should be easy to spot, I'm covering the event for local paper, so if you want your pics in the paper come and see me.
If the weathers foul I'll just be at the start, but not not travelling.
