Couples ride

[Unit]

Well I mentioned this a while back that I wanted to organise a couples ride. The main purpose is to encourage couples to spend some quality time together, and to give those single riders who have a musses at home (either gender) who are often reluctant to go on rides cause they think its only the boys etc an excuse to get their partners to join in. No matter if you are on separate bikes or pillion, the emphysis is on getting ya partners out there too. If your a single person try to find someone you can chuck on the back and open them to the world of motorcycling.
So Im open to suggestions of dates, and where to go. Will be a good excuse for us to start learning some of the roads to ride down here also.
It will have to be February as we are all booked up for January, but not the 18th cause of Paeroa.

How may pair? Do they come with tyres also? Cause I calculate at least 6 pairs of boots a year, depending on how many track days, and Im still waiting for the 12 month to tick around on the zx to know for sure number of tyres a year.
Anyway, thanks for the offer will take you up on that, and now there be four:scooter:

[Rosie]

Sounds like a great idea! Clint and I would be keen.

[boomer]

Why would Boomer be on the back of her bike?

Everyone wants a piece of my ass.. it's understandable. Unfortunately i'm
not a batty boy.. so you can look just DON'T touch! * unless of course you're a mighty fine chick and we can organise something..i'm sure

[Keystone19]

Oooh, Boomer, can I ride on the back of you...I mean of your bike...







Oh, that's right, you're married. Oh, so am I...

Looks like things are shaping up for the first weekend in February, unless Ive missed something, but my social organiser (DMNTD) advises me we are free so far that weekend. There seems to be some good roads right on our doorstep we are discovering back roads through to Rotorua/Taupo etc. Will start planning at complusory Tga Thursday night this week. Besides, its a good chance to spend some quality cuddle time with ya loved one. :yes:

[saul]

Errrr could I take my son or is it a (strictly) partner outing??:yes:

There's a trackday on the 3rd of Feb at Taupo, we could do the couples ride around the there!! :yes:

No problem, Im not one to exclude anyone from a ride unless they are being a real dickhead and putting others at risk. If ya sons keen bring him along, we will probably have DMNTDs daughter with us anyway, so there be three of us, its all good:scooter:

Great suggestion, I love watching any bike on a track (gees that leave me open:sick: ). Seeing as 3RD FEBRUARY TO TAUPO TRACK has been the only suggestion so far then thats what we will look forward to. Bare with me folks this is actually the first ride Ive ever organised, my social manager is taking time out right now:sleep:

[babyB]

theres also the TGN motocycle on 2nd, 3rd & 4th Feb
there also a M/C show in Aucks

there space here too if required

[clint640]

So who's still on for a wee ride on the 3rd or 4th Feb?

Route wise, how about meet up at the Funky Lizard cafe at Paengaroa, cruise along the coast to Matata, then back to Vegas over the Rotomas, A beer/coffee @ the Okere store then the Tga crew can go back via the main rd or the back of the lake & the Tga direct road?

Cheers
Clint

[slowpoke]

Righto. And for anyone interested I'll be selling ear plugs on the day at the following prices:

$10 at the first stop
$20 at the second stop
$40 at the third stop

I have no idea where the first part is, I have some idea where the latter part is and sounds like a great suggestion. You locals know the roads, Im amping to learn them, its really affected my riding since moving down here, just dont know the roads.

Why not hearing aids so we can really enjoy the entertainment, come on, where your sense of adventure:stupid:

[Unit]

Sorry to be away so long folks, Ive been riding my motorcycle, yea, cool isnt it:eek: Ive officially hung a calandar of events in the house, and did it fill up quickly. I know I talked about next Saturday 3rd Feb, but appearently Im pre booked as an umbrella hunny babe to DMNTD, I've graduated from makings moccha's :second: Anyway the following date jumped out off the calandar and marked itself

COUPLES DAY
SUNDAY 11TH FEBRUARY

Its marked on our calandar, hope there's room for it on yours too. There's still lots of great summer motorcycling to do:sunny: :sunny:

[one-speed]

[Maha]

''well tell that wench dmntd i might just have a bike for this i hope''


Love it.......*Pinky* has been owned.........:yes:

[Unit]

I didnt realise when I set the date but sounds like the Westpac Bike run is on that day and is very popular. It I dont get enough interest for Sunday 11th then we will look to pushing this out until March. Will give it a few more days then put up a poll for some alternate dates. I'll look at making the ride on the other side of our hill (Kaimai's) so the ride will be more central to Akld, Hamilton, West Coast crews. Did an awesome ride yesterday c/- Jimbo down around Rotorua/Taupo/Cambridge way which was surprisingly close to Tauranga. This is a great area to explore and the traffic is light in a lot of the roads we took, yet they were great roads in good condition.:yes:

[Unit]

yea Im feeling very insecure right about now

[dragonfly]

The 11th sonds good to us, how bout a ride to raglan, that will be central to alot of areas. AAAnd it's new territory to explore roads in as well:2thumbsup :spudbooge

Good suggestion my flying friend. Guess it wouldnt take us that long to get over that way. Chris is also very keen to ride up around Turangi and up the mountain to Whakapapa, so there's another option too. Central or West of the centre of the North Island should definately appeal to more people, and hey, travelling seems to be no problem for the Towelronga crew

Yeah, Turangi- Whakapapa that would be a good ride. Looking forward to the chosen route for that day out:yes: . The travellings no problem:2thumbsup

[Unit]

Well I may have to delay this until March now as I am suddenly single on the road for a wee while, big bummer. Still keen as on a ride next weekend though for anyone willing and check out some more of these awesome roads around central north island.

[stify]

girly and meself will be coming down to tga march 10th, be keen if the dates line up

That's not fair can't DMNTD come 2 up he can sit on the cowl he won't mind. :dodge:

[hedgier1]

Wot about a ride to miranda hot pools and catch up with the Aucks and Ham and surrounding areas for a soak and bbq?

[scracha]

Cripes. Can someone make a bloody decision? Gotta plan time off, look at maps (all them strange kiwi place names) and things. It was Unit's idea so I guess she can make the choice.

[Unit]

Well I thought we would just keep changing our minds to keep the thread going. The route will be good there are lots of choices and will make sure it is central to as many as possible, the date is a bit unknown as I really should have DMNTD along, seeing as its a couples ride and he's a bit broke right now, so looking to March definately will try to suss out a route in next few days but it tends to change a bit everytime I get out in the district and find new and exciting tracks to ride, this area is definately a well kept secret
