Maungaraki carpark 6-ish to leave by 6.30pm. That's the bottom of the Maungaraki Hill off SH2 just between Petone and Melling (Lower Hutt).

Pace: Whatever, but 100k on the motorway would be nice, the fast guys will wait.
Route: TBA at the meet, usually up to an hour.
Destination: Probably Breakers pool hall (just above Grumpy Mole in L Hutt).
Antics: Wheelies and stoppies are fully encouraged. Please ensure license plates are clean and clearly visible - big brother will want to meet you later on if they can't catch up during the ride.

Messages to individuals:

AJ - everyone's watch IS faster than yours!
Skelstar - the forecast doesn't mention any high winds
Str8 - are you washing your hair, broke, or afraid of sunburn this week?

Awesome - I've enjoyed being 'the man' with you and Gaynuts absent.

Not that it's a race or anything.

I too had a good trip over. Stopped at the pub in Feathers and had a drink with my mates. Got caught up behind two (fucking TWO!!!) stinky sheep trucks on the way back up but was fun dodging around the traffic none the less. Brilliant avo/evening for a ride. Lost the 9-ball comp :|

Well I didn’t see any of you there (ok I didn’t post to invite, but a real man doesn’t need no stinkin’ invite).

So we set off from Tawa, 3 of us having had stressful days. Up the backstreets, through the twisties, over a couple of walking bridges & fence footstep crossings, the odd creek, then some steps.

I won’t tell you where we went but we arrived drenched with sweat (me more so than the others, something about fitness & riding technique) the view was terrific.

Trials bikes.

I really am thinking they are more fun than sportsbikes. Maybe a different kind of buzz, but worth experiencing before you get too old.

Ive GOT to try that some day (soon). A logical extension of mountain biking and my recent motorcycle fixation.

Trials bikes. Yep, I've never had any broken bones to date in life... better get onto a trail/trial bike and give it a go before I get too old too.

Good ride. I was pretty proud, first time in a while I've got through Upper Hutt without any run ins with the natives. Those who know me will know what I'm talking about. I'm still finding it embarrassingly hard to keep up with that bloody Jade thing. Where'd I put that Viagra?
