Wgtn Feb 25 ride to Manfield.

[skelstar]

Thought I would get the ball rolling.

This of course is for the trackday up at Manfield. I believe the registration/sign-in is from 8am-9am. I would say that a reasonable allowance for transit time is 2 hours (a bit generous maybe).

So how about:
Pauahatanui Servo 6:45am sharp departure.

Start point open for discussion but we shouldnt be much later than this I reckon.

Hmm, considering riding up a bit later in the day for a ride and to just watch... mad I know.... but any others doing the same?

I reckon that you should come up early and take your bike out to the track.....Im gonna, im a bit nervous about it but I figure that it'll be an excellent confidence booster, no cages in your way and no "bad patches" on the road to worry about!

Whats up Tristan? You coming? If not, why not?

Are you coming out tommorow?...

[phoenixgtr]

I'm coming tomorrow, but not on Saturday.

I really want to. The more I thought about it the more excited I got.

But I can't go. My partner would kill me for two reasons:
1. Her parents are up from down south for her cousins wedding.
2. We don't have the money.

Tomorrow is a kind of conselation(sp?) prize. "You don't get to go on the track, but you can go for a ride tomorrow instead."

Yay!! (sarcasm)

[Colapop]

Me and the missus (didn't know she wanted to come til last night?!!) Will be leaving in the Hilux at about 8am. So if there is anybody who might need assistance along the I'll stop and help out wherever possible. Str8 Jacket has my cell number or you can PM me if you'd like it.
The travel route will be straight SH1 and then ???

Arrgh dude that sucks! But good on ya for being a good boyfriend, however you need to do what makes you happy as well! Good to see that you'll be there tomorrow, if you change your mind about Manfield you'll have another 150 to ride with.....

[COP_B8]

I'll be at Challenge at 645am.........dont think it'll be open that early though.

I'm also working till about 3am on friday night so I apoligise in advance that I will not be coherent until at least my 3rd coffee along the way!!!

Thought you might pop your head in on this thread Mikey.
Might be 2 hours (conservative) if we dont cross the centre-line :).

[KLOWN]

I'll probably be dropping by to watch as my bike is broke, any specific place that you guys will be hanging around? I haven't met any of you face to face yet so let me know where you'll be so i won't haave to go around asking all the bikers who they are.

[cowpoos]

anyone who wants to go up the east coast with me from mobil featherston... [pending gettin my bike back or borrowing a hyobag]

Reg your interest...

Tell her you don't want to be there on Saturday as her dad propositioned you last time and you're really uncomfortable around him because you're not like that. That'll work.

[phoenixgtr]

Yeah, nice plan, but if you ever met her dad you would know that story was unbelieveable

[skelstar]

What...he doesnt like motorcyclists?

[Str8 Jacket]

Dont stress it PGTR, there'll be other days and it is alot of money (especially gas stops for us!) Im "robbing Peter, to pay Paul" to go and thats not always the best thing either! Just make sure you start saving for the next one!

:niceone: Yeah - I was thinking of heading up later in the day. Not going to go on the track but thought I'd head up anyway. And it's so early!!!

Would 11ish be good for you?

I'm disapointed wees, I was looking forward to you kicking poos arse.

[Fatjim]

And no, that wasn't meant to be a poos and wees joke.

If the mother in law is coming, the foolproof way to getting them to leave early is to take the toilet door off.

[MattRSK]

Well i am going to ride out on saturday. Will be my first ride on a bike ever. Will be taking it easy and will not be hitting the track. Just want to get a feel for the bike culture. I am looking forward to it and meeting other keen bikers. Love telling work mates that I own a CBR. :rolleyes: . So will be there. Do we just come in the main gate?

Cool mate! Good on ya. Yep - just head in the main gate and ride out the back to the track and you'll see all the bikes parked up.

[GSVR]

CBR600RR This is an interesting development Velox. That new job must be paying ok :).

[Skunk]

I be leaving at 6am in an old Toyota van (white, of course, with a KB sticker top right). Wave as you go by; I'll try and stay out of the way.

Won't see you at the track unless your a bucket racer. :motu:

Sorry Velox. Change of plans. I wont be going now... have to get my bike (and self) roadworthy 1st!
Thought you'd be out on the track!?!

Hey chick, you ok? Has something happened?

[Charlie]

no no, everything fine thanks... just discovered I have no WOF, Reg and my kit is is still shy some good boots and pants. No time to sort it before the weekend and it would be a decent sized ticket if I got snapped (including the no L plate); gonna do the responsible thing and get it all done Saturday (including booking my Restricted test!).

[Str8 Jacket]

Oh, alright then. I was a little worried.... Glad your all good!

[Charlie]

Cheers. Have fun tonight. Let me know if you go next week as well! :scooter:
