So would the plan be for hamilton riders to meet in cambridge and then all ride in?
Or should hammy riders just plan to be at repco by midday?

Anyone know where I can get a decent pie in Cambridge?

[St_Gabriel]

[Imbray]

[Murray]

What BBQ and free beer at your place instead????

[hellokitty]

I'm going :woohoo:. Could meet in Silverdale??
I am trying to work out how long it takes to get to the meeting point for 9am, and therefore what time I need to leave to get to Silverdale which is about 30 minutes in the wrong direction! Could we meet a bit closer in?
You can p.m me or post here in case others want to meet up.

Aahh, I thought you were up this way.. If you are south of here, name the place and time to meet and I'll see ya there. :yes:

What about the BP gas station on Wairau rd? Coming from Silverdale take the Tristram road exit, then you turn left into Wairau and it is there on the left.
Then it is easy to ride down the road a little bit and back on at Northcote Road on ramp.
What do you think?

Know it well :yes: , decent sized forecourt too. Name the time and I'll be there.

P.s I'm not a speed demon so need plenty of time to get to the Papakura service station.

[GOONR]

What BBQ and free beer at your place instead????

Sounds good to me..

Can I have my free beer as a take away, have to ride back to Auckland.

[Quasievil]

Sounds reasonable to me ;-)

[hellokitty]

Ride in from:

The Common
Cambridge Town Centre
Meet at 11am - leave at Midday

(oh yeah - where is The Common?)

[sil3nt]

So whats happening at repco? Bunch of bikers turn up in their tiny carpark and then...?

[ckai]

Anyone know where I can get a decent pie in Cambridge?

The BP as you come in from the North. Unless of course you're a little funny and don't like Wild Bean Cafe pies.


Ride in from:

The Common
Cambridge Town Centre

(oh yeah - where is The Common?)

Isn't that the big grassed area at the North end of town? The one opposite the Shell at the round-a-bout and the town hall?

[Murray]

So whats happening at repco? Bunch of bikers turn up in their tiny carpark and then...?

If its like the Auckland MAG-NZ meeting there may be an update in the state of play re the anti motorcycling govt, maybe a bbq, maybe some raffles, maybe some music, maybe a guest speaker. And then for the LOR group maybe a shortish ride???

[slofox]

So whats happening at repco? Bunch of bikers turn up in their tiny carpark and then...?

...and then a riot...

[MadDuck]

Count me in then :sunny:

[sil3nt]

Am really looking forward to this one, even if I have to get up with the sparrows on a Sunday to get there :yes: Hope it is not wet, I am back in my leaking pants. Still, I can always wear my root I guess :D

It goes a bit like this...

Once upon a time at the meet point for a KB ride, I offered DRACO a ROOT :o at least that is what came out of my mouth when I meant to say "rain suit". The name has stuck.

Here is a pic of me in my ROOT, for the curious :laugh:

A likely story! I bet Sigmund Freud would have had something to say about that...

I can tell you it was something of a conversation stopper. You know how that works eh? All of a sudden there is silence and everyone is looking at you. To be fair, my mouth was dropped open in shock myself :rofl:

Lucky for me DRACO is the most yummy woman, gives the meanest lap dances :D

[Fatt Max]

Hear you there Mom,

I usually silence the room when I speak of the 'Goat and Chaps' incident, especially if I should be attending a local Vet convention.

Very much looking forward to heading down the line on Sunday, cant wait to fiddle with Maha's horn, I wonder if I can ,ake it squeak again...

Yes, I am sure you are the only normal one:killingme
I haven't bothered to ride the Fury yet - I am scared I will like it more that the VT750. The Fury is in my name but it is the husband's bike. I wouldn't spend that much money on a bike!

[Mudfart]

i can make it on sunday, but i have to leave at 1245. is it rude to take off while someone is standing on the soap box? my bike is awfully loud ,(bummer) ;). it may still be worthwhile to meet and greet some of the early arrivals.

I think people are meeting/leaving at 9am at that big BP gas station

[skinman]

alrighty then
hopefully see you all there

[NONONO]

Sorry guys if you all missed this.
Papakura Autobahn.
Suggest any time BEFORE 9am
We will be heading off at latest 09.30 to hit our meeting time at Cambridge. Then onto Hamiltron (City of the Future).
Should be a great ride given the weather forecast, and a fine opportunity to meet up and throw some ideas about.
See you there.

[Maha]

Outside McDonalds/Autobahn.....:facepalm:

Cheers for showing up Mark :drinkup:

[Mom]

What a fantastic day! I dont think we could have ordered a better one weather wise, how lovely is Hamilton when it is not foggy :dodge:

My bike ran like an absolute dream all day, I do wish though she would make up her mind just how far she will travel before reserve. It is really tricky to plan fuel stops when one day she will do 195kms before reserve, and the next 143 :pinch: Still no dramas.

Really cruisy ride down to Cambridge, though a couple of our group met with a mental car driving woman who was intent upon killing them. Heart rates were the only things they got out of control thankfully. That was my first proper stop in Cambridge, what a neat little town, nice park to stop by. It was fantastic to see the turn out of bikes arrive, thanks to everyone that came along. I am sorry I did not say hi to you all, pays to come and make yourself known to me really.

Great group ride into the Tron, we made a really cool sight. I did not count the number of bikes, hopefully someone will have. Parked up at Repco for a bit of a chat, then made our way to the MAG-Waikato clubrooms. I have to say you guys really know how to have a great place to meet, the TV's in the toilets are a nice touch :lol:

We managed to vote in a willing volunteer to head up the MAG-Waikato local, thank you Millan, you wont regret it I promise, and you have plenty of willing helpers :D

So, Waikato is launched. Congratulations once again!

[crystalball]

here is a photo off some off the bikes parked outside repco. got lots pics if ya want some just let me know. will become a member online soon. Thanks for a fun day e.t.c need to get some summer gear now.

Cool photo and pleased to meet you there, bro.

Was a scorcher. My bike had 29 degrees in the shade at one point in Hamiltron.

Stuck on the mesh gear on the way back... ah the breeze on me goolies :woohoo:

Here's to the Waikato!

[rideon]

Thanks to Anne & her team for venturing over the Bombays on what was a scorcher of a day. The beers at the 'home' of MAG-Waikato were certainly enjoyed and we are glad you liked the place.
After a little coercion and a somewhat dubious vote, I seem to have ended up being the Mag-Waikato co-ordinator, but I am looking forward to getting alongside you guys & seeing how & what we can do from here to further our rights as motorcylists, regionally & nationally.
Thanks again guys & glad that now the Waikato has an alliance with MAG-NZ

[chasio]

Good on you, rideon! :sunny:

[Mudfart]

i rode past today at 1235pm but didnt see anyone. i had to work overtime this morning so i slept in a bit longer than i hoped. hell the ride was worth it alone, i saw heaps of bikes on the highways. I could only literally stay for 5 mins anyway.
If anyone saw a real loud black fireblade go up rostrevor and then down to mill st, that was me.

[skinman]

great day but omg it was a hot ride home.
PS havent seen a new signature 'too tall to be a hobbit' yet have you?

[Reckless]

Yep was one of the best weather days of the year so far!
Good ride, nice cold beers at the pub, and a great ride back (damn glad we didn't stick to Hwy1). I counted 27 bikes outside Repco Hamilton.

Anyway some pics as requested, starting at BP papakura, at the park in Cambridge and then Repco Hamilton.

[Mom]

(damn glad we didn't stick to Hwy1)

You and me both, imagine battling through that stupid traffic in preference to cruising north on the other side of the river, I think that will be our "new and improved" way from now on :yes:

All MAG Waikato riders - Milan (Rideon) our local representative has posted an entry for the MAG Auck group Charity ride on the 20th February. I know it is Paeroa Race day but if your not heading there try and support this charity ride and meet with some other MAG members.

Register if attending so we know to wait for you on the morning of departure!!

[awa355]

Where will the charity ride run from? If its through Auckland streets i wont bother. High temps, heavy clothes, overheating bike, been there, no fun. A country run would be worth going up for.

Got two new tyres on the GB today. Sunday sounds like a nice easy ride to break in the new tyres.

ITS IN THE CALENDAR 20TH FEB. Meeting at petrol station papakura heading to Kaiuia for fish & chips (included in the donation of $20)

[rideon]

SH 1 to Papakura Autobahn , then to Drury, Then onto Clevedon , Kawakawa & down the coast road to kaiuia for a cold one & FnC's. Route back to Hamilton - well theres lots of options. A great route to scub in the tyres I reckon

[Murray]

The Auckland MAG guys have asked how many coming from Waikato for the Aria Charity ride (its in the calendar for this weekend). Please register if you are attending as they need approximate numbers to let the guys at Kaiuia know.

cheers

[Reckless]

Good luck with your day all you that are going!!!

We are off to Paeroa to put the MAG word out down there!

I'll try and get some promo stuff to caseye for you guys to give out and get us some more members to join up!!

Spread the word LOL!!! :woohoo:

Hopefully Weather is good for you! Keep it shiny side up aye!! :yes:
