500 miles in 12 hours (Sun 3 Oct)

[STJim]

Once again on Sunday 3 October 2010 Hamilton Branch of Ulysses will be running its own mini edurance ride 500 miles in under 12 hours.
The start is a BP Tristram Street (corner Tristram and Collingwood Streets) Sign in at 6.45 am leaving at 7.00 am sharp.
This is a mystery ride. The only thing that I know for certain at this stage is the the ride is going north and will include "Twin Bridges " road south of Whangarei to Kaikohe
This ride is excellent preparation for the Grand Challenge a fornight later.

I'll see if I can get some more information about the route
Cheers Jim

Hell, I'd be a starter. But more than likely I will be involved with other stuff in the pm, so I doubt I'll get to it.

Should things pan out differently, I'll be in touch!

No restrictions - open to anyone. I am trying to sort out a meeting place in Auckland for anyone who dosen't feel like meeting us in the Tron.
On the other hand if anyone wants to come down the night before beds could be arranged

Or just do what we did last year, up at 0430 and down to Cambridge :yawn: Turned 800km into 1100km ish.

Depending on whether I'm feeling insane (high probability) I might even escort you home, then go back home :D

Another event to keep an eye on Jimmy
