Hey all....being a newbie to Tauranga i dont really know anyone so im wondering if anyone organises or knows of local rides, or if soemthings coming up maybe they could let me know. Gets kinda boring tripping round on ya lonesome so anything would be cool.
Ive looked on meetings & events but nothing there.
Even a ride somewhere for a coffe would be cool,lol

The Eastern Bay Pocket Bike (Minimoto) Club is racing this weekend at the Kart Club track on College Road Edgecumbe, for those interested in having a look. Saturday from Noon is practice and on Sunday racing starts at 10am.
Come over for a ride and drop in and say hi....

The Eastern Bay Pocket Bike (Minimoto) Club is racing this weekend at the Kart Club track on College Road EdgecumbeTurn at thornton beach and head towards edgecumbe - after 8kms the track is on your left, or turn at 4 square in edgecumbe, after 3kms the track is on your right.
We're all bikers here. Saturday afternoon is the time to have a go if you like. Bring your kids (5-15 y/o) in their road or motorcross gear, or else we can put some gear on them, or have a ride yourself.

Could be worth a look. Good for the kids too. Might see you there.

Great for the kids.. safer and cheaper than motocross... and watching them growing into knee-down racers at 10 y/o is something to behold. :yes:

Minimum age is 5 in the 5-9 y/o class. Just turn up and rock on up to the pit area. Sunday is flat out racing - saturday is tuneup and visitors have-a-try day.
