1. I am trying to find some KB members to go for the odd weekend cruise :scooter: with in the north / far north area.

2. I'm also keen to find out about any local ride and shine type shows :second: or car/bike events happenig in the area etc.

Any comments or info welcome.


( We need an area specific forum setup so it's easy to find other members and events etc. ):yes:

Oi!, you know I never actually go outside. And you can't be slower than my Dakar.

SpinFx, I think there are lots of Whangarei based KBers who come up our way regularly as a group. See the Meetings and Events section for their wednesday ride details. There is also a non-KB/net based riding club based in Kerikeri (?) called.. Bay/Northland Riders? I forget. S'posed to be good people. Apparently just go inside whatever shop on Mill Lane in Kerikeri has a sportsbike parked out front, sorry I can't be more vague.

There do seem to be quite a few more bikes around keri recently though, I think some are on here, never actually interacted with them yet though. Maybe time for a Mangamuka spin.

Not sure about bike shows, there is one in Awanui in summer. There are a few hotrod/classic car show and shines on every now and then though. Keep an eye on the local papers.

Thanks for that CBobR, I work in Mill Lane on Fridays so I'll blast up and down the road a few times and wait for someone to come out.... LOL.

Seen heaps of bikes cruisin around up this way all the time as I live on SH1 between Moerewa and Pakaraka Junction. ( Always saying.....Wait for me...) LOL

As far as the Wednesday rides go I cant quite make it there in time as I finish work around 5pm and by the time I get home, get ready and ride to Whangas they've already left.

Anyone riding this easter weekend ???

Attention: Moderators...... Please, please do not fine me for the placement of this thread as I had posted it before I got fined for the previous one. I figured it was the most logical place to find and be found for new members in my region. Please accept my greatest apologies. If it's a worry can it be located in your correct forum and a redirection applied ??? so other new members up here can find.
