Yea, Goin Whitford to Kawakawa somewhere out there sounds sweet as. My mate and I did that on Saturday, took us ages and we kept getting over taken by experienced riders*blushes* I aint the fastest rider in the world nor the slowest but by the sounds of it maybe in this hehhee
Anyway I'm in Panmure so maybe meet somewhere say the Tenpin place as it's on the main road?? or maybe you North shoreies could swing by and meet there then we all go. Fish 'n' chips, rock on!!!

I live out in howick and to do the whole howick to kawakawa and back (either the way we came or through the hanua's) is about 2-3 hours maybe a bit more if there are NOOB's and lots of stops :ride:

You nana....I do the ride to Kaiuia (fish 'n' chip shop) round trip in an hour and half :niceone:

The last ride Feint led out there got to lunch within a couple of hours... if you're in a hurry you can take the route to SH2/SH1 home...

there seems to be good weather on Sunday...

Waylander

7th July 2005, 09:08

Ok if this ride is a go then I'll be along for part of it. Just need to see a map to see how much of a part.

bugjuice

7th July 2005, 09:58

well, shall we knock it on to Sunday then? Since more people can ride on Sunday, and the weather looks to be more predictable then, then it does Saturday?

----------------------------------------

k, well the meeting spot is attached. Botany town is just across the road from it.

The map of the route is the other one. The light green is the route to take. The arrows is kawakawakawakawakawakawakawakawakawa bay, for fush un chups. We can then either turn back, or carry on the route. The mid-green route is a slightly longer addition, the darker route is slightly longer still. Don't mind what we do.

This does mean, motorway riding, just a precaution. We'll stick in a group on the motorway anyway, so anyone who isn't sure about it, can stick in the middle of the pack..

Waylander

7th July 2005, 10:10

Ok sweet that works so I can join on Sunday aswell. I'll just leave off at Kaiaua or Waitakaruru, depending on wich route y'all take, and then bugger off to Tauranga. $30 for gas should be enough sinceit will be 100k speed for the most of it.

Who me i am slow :whistle: :whistle: .....

Looks like i won't have the new shock before this weekend but will come out for a jaunt anyway....

How about both days hell it only takes 2-3 hours round trip ...max....including lunch....... and an hour nap on the beach :devil2:

7th July 2005, 11:01

Wouldn't it be kaiaua for fish and chips????

This would be a better route as it skips out that nasty SH1

Hay Waylander, do you want to meet up in Hamilton before this and go up together? Bike should be finished today so itching to get out.

Can't remember where it was. Anyone from the last ride know what the area it was we stopped in?

I'm happy for it to be Sunday, if everyone else is. Bit dodgy to change a ride, and not know if everyone is happy with it.
And still meet at Cyclespot, but I'll meet on sunday. Can't be arsed meeting Saturday and waiting..

slowish I guess.. but whoever takes off ahead often waits anyway, so it doesn't matter. Just enjoy the cruise, that's what it's all about ;)

Kityhawk, could you change (edit) your first post, and change the title to 'Sunday Ride' instead of Saturday, if we're all in agreeance on this...?

If you want me to schnap a few it's Saturday - but I'm not stressing.

It's usually the Kaiaua Fish and Chips place...that's where we stopped on the ride Feint organised a month or so ago.

Whatchusay FEINT ?

and im not sure if the Kawa girl have read the thread today... but lets first wait for her to agree on the Sunday ride. Seems the weather will be good and more people could turn up :)

Don't take it personal. You can't please everyone.

oh, it's not personal ;)
just admitting defeat.

Ok, there seems to be more people riding Sunday, and the weather is better for Sunday, altho Dave can't make it Sunday.

See my first post, and that's what we'll stick to. Like it or lump it.
Worth starting over, and making it all clear?

placidfemme

7th July 2005, 12:40

See you sun. 9.00 at cyclespot, you to placidfemme!

*is so happy now* :ride: I thought I was never going to get to come on a ride :)

Yay!

Ok, sweet see you at Cyclespot at 9am :)

*doesn't mind getting up early on a Sunday to ride* lol and you know what... I don't really even know where we're going... but thats ok :)

And Bug Juice.... Don't quit on us... like Big Dave said... you can't please everyone, and your doing good as it is :)

Edit --- why don't you ask a Mod to lock this thread and start a new one... would make for a lot less confusion...

7th July 2005, 12:54

or why not leave this thread for the guys / gals going on Saturday.. and maybe bugjuice can start a new thread for the Sunday ride..

you dont necesarrily (sp?) have to make everyone change the ride to Sunday....

my 2 cents :)

*uses your 2 cents in the work vending machine and buys a cookie*

thats a better idea, then everyone is happy :)

Hi Guys and Gals

I'm relatively new to the forum and being keen to meet up with some of you people. Been crook lately with the lurg but am keen for a blast on the Weekend. Now this thread started with Kittyhawk wanting to ride on Sat, but it appears that it will be Sun since forecast is for Sunshine. I'm wondering who's organising ride from Cyclespot on Sun and if the Saturday ride is still to proceed.

Help me out guys.

bugjuice

7th July 2005, 17:26

nah, that's fair call.

We'll leave this as a Saturday ride, if that's still a goer. If you want an alternative saturday ride, there there's this one too:
