ANZAC Day ride

[Deano]

Is anyone riding tomorrow ?

Weather forecast is good, but it turns to shite Sat and Sun.

I am planning on getting out there - not sure of destination yet, but feel the need for something a little different.

Say, top of Takas, then back over Aka's, then Piecock.

Has anyone not done the Aka's yet ? It's a challenge...:baby:

Probably leave mid morning but open to suggestions.

There is the Ulyses ambulance ride in the morning .. start maidstone and to Wellington Free. I think it starts at 10 am.

[yungatart]

Weather is supposed to be good up here and there is rumours of a party....

[koba]

Damn!
Keen but can't.
Off to taupo to help support someones two stroke "habit" ;)

Great cause but that's a bloody boring ride.

pfft, riding bikes and having fun is sooo last year. I'll be gardening followed by a firing game of lawn bowls.

Yeah, yeah. You the best.... :love:

Me and Malcolm are heading up to Taupo tonight to get my new to me RG. We will be riding back over a couple of day's so I reckon we'll get plenty of riding in! ;)

Have fun everyone! I hope that the weather holds out on Sat until we get home!!!

Done it in a car. Bloody awful road. Not keen on the bike :crybaby:

I was thinking of a quick blast to Wangavegas to see the old man sometime in the weekend if the weather doesn't turn to shit.

If I can get the 200R back together tonight I'll be in

Crikey I suppose you've joined the Whitby Residents Association too?

I'll be prepping my WR for the Capital Coast and trying to shake a bloody lurg that feels to be coming on. Where's the brandy bottle?

Hope for your benefit the Akas are sealed on the other side now Dean[o].

I, myself, will be lunching hob-knobing, then heading into the deepest-darkest Wairarapa (by car bleh).

Hodihoho. Thats funny. Ooohh you caught me Mr Gardiner man, with my hand in the cookie jar too.

[Dino]

Did the Akatarawa road the end of last year, it is sealed all the way but shit it is tight in places, especially when you are trying to dodge all the damned cyclists.

.

[henry]

And the SUVs on the wrong side of the road

[blue eyed savage]

where and when r u all meeting. google map me.

[riffer]

Geez I'd love to Deano, but Anzac Dawn Parade tomorrow morning and taking the young feller (Tim - 8) on the Ambulance Ride doesn't leave any space in my calendar.

Have fun on your ride. :devil2:

[Sketchy_Racer]

.......................

I did it just after New Year... http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/blogs/viewblog.php?userid=9500&entry=353 refers. I wouldn't recommend it as it's too tight and narrow and I was always worried about meeting an oncoming 4WD taking the whole road.

Crazy part is, the dickhead who compiled the Kiwi Motor Cycle atlas (supposedly the best 100 rides in the country) included the Akatarawa Road. He obviously just looked at a map and never rode it.

[Sparky Bills]

Ill meet yas in waikas if your still doing it....?

The Akas is a goat track, but will always have a place in my heart.
Thats where i learnt to ride a road bike round corners!
Well mainly heading up Riki..:whistle:

[Deano]

I think a lot of peeps need to htfu.

The ride was sweet, no dramas, got my arse handed to me by an RG150 over the Aka's....lol.

[skelstar]
