Coro Loop Tuesday the 27th

If someone knows the way - I'd prefer to do the smaller loop instead.

Meeting at the Autobahn at 10 am.

Going clockwise around the loop.

Open to all riders and all speeds - as long as you stay safe.

NEWBIES WELCOME.

Please leave any bad attitudes at home.

The ride may be cancelled depending on the weather.

Dude the small loop is easy to find, once you get about 14K's outsideof Tairua (after going through it) start looking for signs saying 25A. Take that route and it takes you back across to Kopu.

You can take the short loop by going from Tapu to Coroglen,or the 309 road to Whitianga....but I don't think you'll find it any faster on your bike....

Don’t know what happened when we got back to themes on the way home - some how lost everyone at the darn road works. Anyways I headed up SH1 back home.

Cheers again justsomeguy for organizing the ride.:done:

27th December 2005, 20:32
Yep, was a great ride and perfect weather :)

Bit of confusion at the start with which way was clockwise... ;)
And at the end with danb not seeing us at the kopu gas station.
But nothing major.

Here are a few pics I took:

Yeah sorry bout that DanB, they all stopped off at the Kopu gas station to watch the cops directing traffic. Hope thos tires are all scrubbed in now man!

Nice pics Erik!

Cheers Just some guy for organising the ride, was a good 1.

I must say that I have fallen head over heals in love with the ZXR, ive already done over 1000km's on it and not even owned it a week yet!

Bugs alright, think I took out a whole hive of bees at one point, bit like being hit by a fully automatic BB gun.
Think a clean off the gears is in order.

Na Fish wasnt there but he would have been floating around the area with another couple of VTRs and quite possibly a TLR like the one in those photos(the guy on the TLR has just come back from Iraq...fuck that shit)

Surprised you guys left the car park with chicks hanging around. Next time chicks turn up to check things out, grab a glove and stuff it down the front of your leathers so they think all bikers have big uns.

Any chance of photochopping some names to faces/bikes?

Finally someone's got a shot of that damned roundabout!!

If you look behind the guy on the second photo then there's where I hit the curb.... just don't ask me how... not like the damn roundabout could be any bigger. :eyepoke:

Pictures from Zapf's site... hope that's cool...

So they have no class and bad taste. You guys should've been in with a grin :yeah:

It was the nasty round about pixies that got weasel. The ones that make people think "late flip, apex, late flop" is the correct way to get through a roundabout rather than "early flip, early flop, apex" approach.
