was gonna say the same thing...

Why not just join a ride to Paeroa and enjoy a day watching the races?

Thanks for the comments. I was aware that Paeroa races were on when I posted this ride so i'm not expecting a huge amount of people.

Paeroa may be too far for some 250 riders, however I am open to being convinved to change the destination if the majority of attending riders want to :)

amazingly enough, yes!! you get on these things called roads, and you take one after another, in the general direction. It gets even better, once you take the right roads, you end up there!! :gob:

might tootle along this ride to kaiaua... got a 7 to farewell

If you want a relaxing ride then you might want to reconsider the route ie. out to Kauia..... unless you like being buzzed by almost every bike ( of every description) in Auckland, on their way to Paeroa :sunny:

NinjaBoy's right guys.

The races don't start till later in the day - so people not interested in seeing the practice sessions will be leaving later.

I'd personally pick another route if I happened to be organising a newbie ride.

Which way are the paeroa rides going? coast or inland? We can run it in reverse, or mirrored, or... errr.... pick roads at random, and get a bunch of newbies completely lost :dodge:

Chisanga

I'm sure whichever way we go, and if we come across other bikers along the way, they will, as always, show us other bikers on the road the utmost respect :)

You might very well think that, but I couldn't possibly comment :)

Some of the bigger boys might catch us up...?

Fark 'em, they got indicators, they can bloody well pass us.

Hell, we'll even make indicating optional.

Some people might almost get the impression that some people think that some bikers have no right to be on the road if they don't ride as fast as some other people :)

Chisanga
17th February 2007, 13:47
This is certainly a 'slower' paced ride. I will be keeping to road legal speeds but we will ride to the pace of our slowest rider if any new bikers wish to come along.

17th February 2007, 22:04
9pm ride n4cr? You guys riding hyosungs down or something?
I'm keen for a nice ride out to kaiaua and on to paeroa, so my vote is to continue.

Oi! I'm watching you buddy.

Other riders will be considerate - they were learners too once.

Any hassle there's always the *555 option.

Cheers for organising the ride Chisanga, was a nice lax ride getting down to kaiaua appreciating the fantastic weather. Zeocen and I managed to get to paeroa without any troubles either, so your sense of direction isnt that bad. Good meeting some of you and good catching up with you again JT.
