I am not too fussed really. Whatever, whenever.

Just put in your suggesions and I'll pick whatever the majority decides.

I'd like to try out some new roads this time. Any ideas? Quasie? (ride organising wizz)

Have you thought about SH22? :whistle:

The thought had crossed my mind, yes. If nothing else works out, I'd be more than happy to do SH22. We could meet up in Narawahia Daryl, then go further from there.

P.S. You should come too Yamahamaman, I don't recall having the pleasure of meeting you.

I've added a poll to this. Vote away. I'll decide on Friday from the results.

P.S. If you know of other new roads that you think are really good, please let us know!

Well I vote raglan, that road was built with you in mind mate, as well as that there is a great food choice when you get there and a extra ride to the surf beach Manu bay.
And we can do coffee at my place afterwards and hey stay the night and hit the town and fuck how bout a big fry up in the am, FUCK then we can all go down to Taupo, I think I have found another ultimate weekend:msn-wink:

I voted for Whanga - Waihi myself because I haven't been that way for months. However, I am happy to go where the group wants to go. I'll decide by Tomorrow evening at 1900 hrs from what the numbers show in the poll.

No matter where we'll decide to go, Meet up at the Papakura Autobhan at 0900 hrs and depart at 0930 hrs sharp!

Cops aren't a problem at all for Whanga - Wahi. You just have to stick to the limit on the straights before Kopu, and you will be fine.

Dont worry about that mate pace is fast to slow, always is , just find your speed group and stay there and have a fun safe day, I usually ride mid pack and normally sit on 110-130 tops. :scooter:

whangamata east coast of coromandel!
Halfway between Kopu and Waihi

Motoracer
12th November 2004, 15:33
Here's the plan:

- We'll meet up at the Papakura AutoBhan at 0900 hrs tomorrow for the ride.
- We'll be departing from the AutoBhan at 0930 hrs sharp!
- We'll then be riding through Hunua, then Miranda to Kopu.

- We'll have an estimated ETA of 1015 hrs at Kopu.
- We'll meet up with the southern crew, fuel up, have food/drink etc.

- We'll then carry on to Whangamata (sometimes I shorten it to Whanga).
- We can either have lunch there or we can carry on to Waihi and have lunch there.

- Once at Waihi, we'll then head back the same way. If the southerners want to head back through the gorge, then that's up to them.

See you lot tomorrow.

ARGH!
Sorry guys, I asked my mum and she won't let me go. She says motorbikes are too daaangerous! :laugh: na just kidding, the reason that i can't make it is a pretty frustrating one... Was fucking around on my bike this morning and when i got off hadn't put the stand out fully, so i turn around and my bike falls over right in front of me in slow motion... tried diving under it so it'd fall on me and break its fall but was too slow :P so anyway i snapped my gear lever and clutch lever and was gonna get it all fixed tonight with the help of super frosty but i've just got real busy with work shit so can't sort it tonight... so can't ride tomorrow. anyways i hope you guys have fun and will DEFINATELY make it to the next ride! I'm real keen! argh!

yea so have a good one.
