[SwanTiger]

RESEARCH ASSISTANTS REQUIRED

COROMANDEL PIE RESERCH (CPR) RIDE
Departing Papakura Autobahn BP at 10:00 am on Saturday 12th August 2006


WHERE ARE WE GOING the Coromandel loop (anti-clockwise, 'cos clockwise is gay)

WHEN ARE WE GOING Saturday, 12th of August 2006

WHY ARE WE GOING to obtain valuable research to be compiled into usable information for our biking brethren. We have three goals. To find; the BEST PIE, the CHEAPEST PIE and to geographically map PIE locations.

SHIT TO BRING

$10 - $20 for Pies
An empty stomach
$5 - $10 for drinks to wash said pies down
A suitable place to store your pie wrapers
A piece of paper to record research data (a pen would be good too...)



MORE SHIT TO READ
Basically it is just an excuse to eat pies and go for a ride, however, try to record where you buy your pies from and the price you pay for the pie. If you come across an exceptional pie, keep the wrapper and record price, shop purchased from, location/address and visable land marks near shop.

This is open to all, slow and old (even GSXR riders), basically meet at BP, leaving for Kopu, taking the back roads. Once at Kopu, go anti-clockwise and stop as you see fit while riding your own ride.

I'm not responsible for anyone, so if possible, peer up with a rider of similar capabilities / pace. That way, if you decide to go home let that person know.

We'll probably re-group in the 'of signifigance' townships and eventually end the ride back at Kopu Mobil, there is a pub across the road, as you know, so that's a good place to end a good ride and wash down the pies.

Simple really.


RAIN DATE
No body likes to eat pies in the rain. If it is raining the ride will be post-poned until the weekend after.

[Karma]

Holy shit!

Just make sure Gremlin rides at the back, or there'll be none by the time we get there...

[SwanTiger]

Don't be so hard on Gremlin, he has worked hard for his beer belly and pie shaped arse.

[Karma]

pie shaped arse.

Dude... keep your eyes on the road man... either that or don't shout it all over the forums...

[Gremlin]

bastards.... that be my birthday too :wait:

hmmm I might be in for the ride... my last few birthdays have all been weekdays, which normally involved.... work/uni. Couldn't care less about the pies, as swanny says, excuse for the ride, and I haven't done coro anti-clock.

[bobsmith]

well, I'm not going to be going on the ride since I'm in Palmy but if you're in auckland and wanting best pies, I really suggest you try Bernie's pies in brownsbay. Their steak pies are phenominal.... I have been looking and looking but never found better pies.....

Note I can only speak for their steak pies since... I only eat steak pies, but they have a large selection of steak pies and they're good....

[Biohazard]

I know this is an extremely serious topic, but f*ck me did it make me laugh :rockon:

[WRT]

. . . and I haven't done coro anti-clock.

After the comments Swanny was making about your arse, you might want to make that "anti-cock".

[frogfeaturesFZR]

Look in at the Hikutaia store. mmmmmm nice pies !:first:

[Kendog]

The Coromandel Pie shop does a mean pie, smothered in tucker farker. YUMMM.

[SwanTiger]

What are you all on about, I thought Gremlin was a girl? :nya:

[The_Dover]

What are you all on about, I thought Gremlin was a girl? :nya:


Only after 7pm on weekend nights.

That pie habit needs serious coin to maintain.

[The Pastor]

Best pies are in eruobake in albany, hellishly expensive but the butter chicken pie is so good. although the last one I had did seem to skimp down on the chicken from previous pies (but still enough)

[Whynot]

edit:
oops ... wrong thread :innocent:

[Patrick]

What are you all on about, I thought Gremlin was a girl? :nya:


She is... was??? Has changed the girly symbol... does this mean shes had the Op? Bugger!

[Lou Girardin]

Another f'n Sat ride.
What do you guys do on Sundays?
Recover?

[Karma]

Another f'n Sat ride.

Now Lou, if there was ever a man in need of a good pie I'd say it was you.

[R6_kid]

[Jonny Rotten]

[Kornholio]

Fuck the pies...eating is cheating, but I will do a survey on which pub has the best Waikato on tap :D

Fucken funny idea Swanny... too many pies tho and you will have to trade up to the Hyobag 650 :)

[Patrick]

Fuck the pies...eating is cheating, but I will do a survey on which pub has the best Waikato on tap :D

Has Auckland got the best Waikato on tap yet? Flush your toilets twice Hamiltonians, Auckland needs the water....:nya:

[Patch]

Waikato :sick: was brewed for all you poor fuckers who can't afford a Heineken :finger:


Mt. Wgtn Bakehouse does the best pies. Saw SpdMedic leaving the vicinity the other day - can't miss him in his work vehicle :doctor:

[hurricane_r]

can i attend if i dont eat the pies?, im on a diet, lost 26kgs and a pie will make my bike go slower.:P

[SwanTiger]

Pies are an excellent source of a balanced diet.

[hurricane_r]

hehe how i do lust for a butterchicken pie, i may have to make a expection, i mean it is for the sake of pie research, many other pie lovers could benefit from information gathered on this mission,:P

[oldrider]

Pies are an excellent source of a balanced diet.
Sorry, no they are not, if you are gluten sensitive but have to agree with you, they are delicious and the smell of a good pie is hard to resist!
I start thinking of pies about 2km into ride and am drooling by Tarras or Cromwell. Good idea for a ride swanny, have a good day. :blah: John.

[Maha]

Pies are an excellent source of a balanced diet.
Do you mean.........like one in each pocket??..........:corn:

[beyond]

The average pie has a golf ball sized hunk of pure fat in it. Usually made form the sweepings off the butcher shop floor, with plenty of bits of sinew, lung tissue, bung holes and other juicy bits. If you are very lucky, you might get one that has around 35% of some sort of meat in it. Might be hedgehog, possum, the odd stray cat or dog, but don't they taste so bloody nice :)

[hurricane_r]

MMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmm pie's,,,,,, anyone talked to jenny?

[Karma]

Bollocks to pies... bring on the puddings!!

Is that a genuine steamed steak and kidney pudding picture with suet pastry which gets steamed for about 4 hours? I've gone all weak thinking about it as Mrs B only makes one every couple of years. Served with mushy peas and lots of pepper, sigh........

That it is... I am in fact having one cooked for me this coming Saturday :D :nya:

[Blackbird]

You lucky bugger.:yes: I will have to go on bended knee to Mrs B. It's a particularly fine example of Pom cuisine. I have seen old receipes involving the addition of oysters but I'd never get one made then as Mrs B loathes oysters.

I've never had one with oysters before... bit too poncey for my liking...

[Blackbird]

I've never had one with oysters before... bit too poncey for my liking...

Oysters weren't a poncey delicacy back in the dim mists of time - it was probably all the poor could find to eat. Let's face it, eating "phlegm in a shell" isn't everyone's cuppa, especially when the reproductive process of oysters may well involve the use of giant undersea nostrils.:sick:

[Jonny Rotten]

damit your making me hungry !!!!!!! I WANT PIE NOW

[hurricane_r]

IMPORTANT QUESTION , IM PROLLY STUPID AND MISSED IT BUT.,


where do we all meet first?

[Toast]

Right kids, I don't wanna have to repeat this...but...

The single best pie on the Coromandel is the STEAK AND OYSTER from the Coromandel township pie factory...they sell pretty quick, it's a bit of a pie-boy's secret this one, but they're VERY good. Don't miss out, or you'll be sorry.

[Kornholio]

Hey Swanny you might have to call into Blackbirds place on the way to try one of those by the looks...if he's xtra nice to his Mrs tho.....

[SwanTiger]

IMPORTANT QUESTION , IM PROLLY STUPID AND MISSED IT BUT., where do we all meet first?
Yes, you are stupid and missed it.


Departing Papakura Autobahn BP at 10:00 am on Saturday 12th August 2006
But we still love you.

[Jonny Rotten]

Yes, you are stupid and missed it.


But we still love you.


thats a bit gay swanny

[Qkchk]

thats a bit gay swanny
Becides all the gay love on here, me and Qkkid would like to attend and help you eat the pies but it depends on work (as usual...) so will have to see closer to the date.

Mmmmm Mince n cheese...............

[SwanTiger]

I will be in attendance at this event. May have to leave a little early if your all slow cause I have night shift that night.
If nothing else it will keep Mark away from the ride. If he turns up it wont be for long.

Didn't you know? he is the Manager of a bike shop on Saturday :nya:

[Wonko]

yumm, piess

I might be able to get away for this, pies are all good. Do you think that we could eat all the pies on the loop?

[hurricane_r]

darn im stupid, sorry, hey you think we will be back by 7:00pm?

[Zapf]

I might be doing some advance research about this Coromandle place this Sat. Anyone want to join me?

[Finn]

I'm keen but only if it's okay with Dover.

[The_Dover]

I'm keen but only if it's okay with Dover.

i'll let you go if I can cum in your mouth again

[jtzzr]

[Crazy Steve]

Crazy Steve...

[gijoe1313]

Hmmm...I'm picking up my bike from the Coro today. Mebbe I should sample some of these pies along the way! I haven't had breakfast yet and reading this thread is making me hungry!

I'm having a lot to do with the Coro lately - must be something in the air? :niceone:

[Crazy Steve]

Sweet, see you there, bring that fat mate of yours as well.

Ive havnt seen him ride his bike in one year...

I dont know if he can anymore??

I think he has the lowest milage K3 in the country...Mybe even the world!!!!

Crazy Steve..

[DMNTD]

Holy shit, Norfland MASSIVE represent !!

I'm working on the logic that the weather has been so utterly shit of late that next weekend is going to be beautiful, clear blue skies for as far as the eye can see and nice warm dry roads with no nasty P-metal.

And lets pray for a limited number of pesky camper vans and dodgy trucks and coaches running wide in the twisties. And those 4X4 and BMW cunts who speed up when you try to overtake are bed-ridden due to a waiter poisoning their latte.

Positive thoughts please.

[Kendog]

When I lived in Coro, we used to just refer to all out of towners as "loonies", due to the way the BMW drivers, campers and assholes towing boats would try to drive the roads, you know, like they own them!
Hope you guys all have fun, wish I could join you for a yummy coro pie, although the Fish n chips are better.:shutup:
Mrs KD.

[DMNTD]

Holy shit, Norfland MASSIVE represent...
Currently seeing if I can rope a few others from the Norfland Crew too.

We've just come down from there this afternoon and it hasn't changed! BMW drivers NEVER pull over on the Thames coast road to let you past, and neither do 4x4's with flash boats on. Weather was pretty ugly up there, glad I was in the car.

[Scouse]

What time are we meeting at the Autobhann

[Blackbird]

you need to twist your right wrist to get past them then

What does my wrist do when I'm in the car??? No worries on the bike.

[SwanTiger]

What time are we meeting at the Autobhann
We will depart Autobahn about 10AM, so meeting anytime before then. I will probably turn up a little after 9AM and have breakfast while waiting around for everyone to arrive.

ROUTE TO KOPU

Any suggestions on what route we should take? I'm thinking the usual Clevedon, Marinda, etc until Kopu. Or perhaps a Canon Ball run down SH1 and then SH2 or whatever the road to Thames is called.

[Patch]

What does my wrist do when I'm in the car???
I don't think we need to know, do we?? :oi-grr: Don't you remember what mummy said "Two hands on the wheel at all times sonny" unless . . . well . . . its an emergency :blip:

[Hellraiser]

Maybe keep that a secret till we get to auto bahn, unless you want the five-0 waiting

I think this would be a good idea decide on the day

[Scouse]

Maybe keep that a secret till we get to auto bahn, unless you want the five-0 waitingFuck me paranoia manifests it self go see a shrink before you start shooting people

That's why it's cool to travel in the car with Mrs B - I can keep both hands on the wheel and still have a silly grin:blip:

[SwanTiger]

Let's hope that my weather sense is correct and this shite weather lets off by the weekend. I'm fairly positive that it will, its the usual -- heaps of shit weather, utterly shit weather, and then the most beautiful day you think you've seen all year and bikes are everywhere, the aroma of pies is fresh and strong.

Let's do the sun dance.

...surely forgeting the bourbon was a mere oversight of yours Mr Swandance?

[SuperDave]

I'll be keen on this too, hope the weather comes right though. I'll pass on eating all those shit pies though, that way you fat fuckers can get more to stuff your faces with :nya:

Now Gareth, no going off the edge on this ride, it might hurt a bit.

Bring jumps or we can just push start you. no big deal.

[Zed]

Bring Jumper leads. :blip:

Most of us Aucklanders are experienced in jump starting from when Mark had his GPX and needed a jump start every time he stopped on a ride.If the reg/rec is stuffed you may as well forget jumper leads, since the battery is not recharging it will eventually run completely and no amount of jump starting will help! Been there and done that. :doh: What you can do is take along a spare fully charged battery and swap it over when the existing one dies, but even then I wouldn't take my chances of how long it will last??

[Aitch]

Do you think you'll be at Kopu?
Any know how long it takes to get to Kopu from Cambridge at about legal speeds?

[Turtle]

About an hour dude (Korn speaking from Phils m/cycle centre)

[Scouse]

Bring jumps or we can just push start you. no big deal.I hope you've got your Tyre sorted before Saturday then

[SwanTiger]

I'll be ariving at Papakura Autobahn around 9AM and will have breakfast while I'm waiting. If anyone else is keen on rolling up early and having breakfast...

What ya going to have for breakfast then Swanny???? A PIE.

[beyond]

Well, I registered to go.

Like to catch up with a few people I haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet, like Quasi, Zed, Korn and others.

Hope the weathers ok, cos the forecast has just turned to crap for Saturday :(

BUT, last Sat was supposed to be fine and it was crap, so if the weather forecasters are on the ball, even though it's meant to be crap, it should be fine. :yes:

[The Pastor]

I hope you've got your Tyre sorted before Saturday then


Nah bro when i stuk my trubo and rota in it i did tha mean skidz and blew it up cuz now i jus run it on tha rim!

[Zapf]

Hope the weathers ok, cos the forecast has just turned to crap for Saturday :(


don't worry. Weather is too strange at the moment to really tell whats going to happen then. But tomorrow should be good for Auckland

[DMNTD]

Bit buggered off but we're going to sit this one out due to unpredictable weather. Wouldn't of been an issue if it was just down the road,but it ain't.
Pretty sure it'll still be there when the weather settles and will look forward to y'all giving me a good learning on "your" roads down there :yes:
Enjoy and stay safe ya hear now :doobey:

I suggest you should look at the decision again by end of Thursday or mid Friday... can be fairly certian then. Anyway... u know Coro.... wet on one side and dry on the other.

[trev]

I agree with Zapf Chris. Westerlies are forecast. The east side probably won't have a cloud in the sky.

[beyond]

The weathers upgraded already from real crap on Saturday to showers.
As Zapf has said, can be fine one side and not the other.

Showers I can handle, but roads will likely be a little greasy, which makes the ride more interesting. Should be a goer unless we all wake up on Saturday to a soggy wet grey army blanket.

[SwanTiger]

Weather forecast are predicting showers later in the day, so I am thinking and hoping we will have a fine day of riding. We'll have to wait and see what the rain radar is showing on Friday evening and Saturday morning to know for sure.

[The_Dover]

why have you gone back to that gay username swampy?

[SwanTiger]

why have you gone back to that gay username swampy?
I originally changed it from 'SwanTiger' to 'Swanny' because a lot of you bastards were too lazy to remember my first name, so instead I was coined 'Swanny'. This is my way of saying, "Fuck you, learn to pronouce my name or fuck off because I don't want to know you".

If people are going to be too lazy or ignorant to spend 20 seconds learning my name, then they aren't worth knowing. Rant over :nya:

[The_Dover]

what is your first name?

[SwanTiger]

what is your first name?
Anaru. "Ah Nah Roo". Maori for Andrew, my mother was obsessed with Biblical names.

[The_Dover]

I knew that bro, I was just giving you shit.

But I'm still gonna call you swampy.

[Gremlin]

metvuw.com basically says saturday is going to be ok, with showers moving off at midnight, then returning late on saturday, so at the mo, seems like a window.

I won't be able to stop too much, as I need to be home out east before 1730.

oh, swanny... we shorten almost every name on here... so if you don't like it... either change it back, or get annoyed heaps :yes:

I'll get bored of my little protest sooner or later.

Yes the weather is looking promising, I'll make a call early on Saturday morning but I'm pretty confident at the very least we are going to have dry roads.

Anaru. "Ah Nah Roo". Maori for Andrew, my mother was obsessed with Biblical names.One of the chosen twelve disciples, also an apostle and blood brother to Simon Peter, Andrew walked with Christ and was a great and blessed man indeed...your mother likely knew this when she so named you. The Greek definition for your name is "manly" but I doubt your mum had knowledge of that? :bleh:

pieeessss


I want a pie with some decent cheese in it. I one had a pie that instead of mince + gravy + cheese, it was mince + cheese sauce. It was a very speical day...

Anti it being forced down future generations throats.

Mates name is Tuijo, and I have no problem learning peoples names, rembering them is another matter though.

[scracha]

Bring jumps or we can just push start you. no big deal.
FFS, I've been jump starting bikes for over 15 years ($hit..I've just reminded myself I'm getting older). Nah..the battery isn't charging....died a couple of weeks ago coming through the gorge (Saturday night) back from Whangamata.

I don't care what the magazines say about the AA, the free recovery truck was out within 30 minutes...Impressive. Even more impressive were the 3 cars that stopped and asked if they could help.

Anyway...rectifier is here. Gonna fit a PC cooling fan (I've got about 20 lying in the garage) to it so it doesn't fry the new one. Don't think I'll get it done for Saturday tho <sigh>. Seems it's a common thing for early viffers. So much for Honda reliability.....it's the only bike that's broke down on me in the past 9 years.

Mibby I should steal the (ex) bosses PC800. It'll be the only time it's been out for about 10 months (I don't think he's had it out since I last rode it).

Have fun eating all the pies.

OH...steak and cheese...a uniquely kiwi experience methinks....YUK

I'll charge my beast of a camera up and make sure you come up and grab me. If you can get some pics of me riding that would be cool too.

[SwanTiger]

If we go by the weather forecast the roads out east should primarily be dry as it states the showers are isolated north of Taranaki but to the west, however spreading and becomming heavier later in the day.

Looking at the satellite images though, depending on how fast those clouds move, we might just have a fine day.

Who minds the odd shower, if at all? or who would prefer to Postpone until the following Saturday, 19th August?

[Zapf]

Looking fine for tomorrow. Sunday will be raining.

I'm not fussed with a few showers and am all keen to go regardless except if it's really hosing down.

Has anyone been through the "back way" from Papakura to Kopu lately? What condition is the road in, I imagine this recent heavy rain would of caused a few slips along the coast, or not?

theres still a cold front coming, i'd suggest it will be pretty much the same as today

Yes, :yes: Steven I am hanging out for a ride,:wait: last one was down Tekuiti way.

My weather channel says it there shouldn't be any major rain tomorrow, maybe local showers but thats it. Turning into rain later in the evening.

there'll be a bit of wind so it might be a bit cool.

Lets go for a ride "BRING IT ON"

[SwanTiger]

Alrighty, it looks beautiful out east and like shitty rain out West, but by looking at the weather charts I think we might pull this one off. I don't think the east coast is going to see any of those showers, but you never know. If anything, they're only going to be brief and light so they'll be a fine excuse to stop and eat a pie.

See you there.

Its a beaut of day! time to ride it away....

True, the roads will always be there for another day, but what if we die of a freak accident tomorrow? GOD FORBID, however we must cherish the time gifted to us and we must spend that time wisely - by riding bikes and eating pies.

it rained on the way to Papakura and then its been clear since.. that being said some of the roads were damp. Cheers Swanny for organising the ride even tho i took a right turn to whangamata and over that hill with Murray; He's running in his picked up this mornin k5 thou so we went for a saunter off the beaten track.. that hills his fav.

good day, top roads and these D'orklanders didn't spill.. oh managed to drink beer instead of eating pies too :rockon:

[beyond]

Thanks Swanny for organising the ride. Real good turn out and the only rain I struck was five minutes before I got home. Other than that, it was mostly sunny, warm and 70% of the roads were dry.

Excellent day and excellent ride and excellent company.

Only 3 maggot packs scoffed at last count as the Coroglen Burgers had their way with us again. :)

Good seeing some new faces and bumping into some old ones again, like Kiwifruit, Tony and Saul.

The young lassy on the Busa was doing quite well considering her size and the size of the bike. I thought she was a pillion with someone until she pulled up alongside when we stopped briefly before Miranda. Takes some skill and a careful throttle hand to get those machines through the twisties when it's damp. What's her online name?

Nice finally catching up with Speedie and Kornholio. Some good riding there on the 750's. They go quite well don't they? :)

Great day, no spills or nasties. Suprisingly good weather.

Steve, you missed a beauty mate. Somone mentioned you were scared of pies?? :p

That was a great ride and the pizza was really good :first:
Enjoyed riding with you all, good pace and no problems pity the last stretch before Coromandle town had some damp patches though but overall I think the weather was pretty good.
