Hey Nasty, I've been trying to get a few guys together from Wellington but more and more of the people I've asked are pulling due to prior to commitments.
We were planning on leaving a little later - around 9:30am to be up there by 11.00am.
Griffin from the forums I believe is another keen Wellingtonian. I'm waiting to hear back from 3 more people from my work with bikes - 3 have already said no.

We could just move to 9.00 and compromise the leaving time ... that way we get there and do stuff etc ... still unsure if we can come 100% cos of flu .. but we are damn well trying :)

I have Cheesecutter electrostatics that should go to Chanceyy. If someone is going to this, PLEASE, get hold of me so I can get you to take them. I am not able to make it myself.

Looks like we'd be riding back into rain to Wellywood looking at the 3 hour model data :(.

Are you guys going thro pram as im going up and would like ride with others.
Nasty

Chanceyy's going to hate us ... coz we have to bail due to the weather and sickness.
Nasty and I have both had 3 days off this week, she has gone back to work but I need yet another sickie day - this is a foul foul sickness. Checking the Wx for either the 'Rapa or Horoewhenua & Manawatu just shows winds, wet and low temps. It's just dodgy for us to be out in it.
Sorry chick, have been looking forward to it too ...
This means you guys need to sort out where and when ... sorry :(

Guys, from experience all one of you has to do is make a time and place and everyone will hook into that. It'll work since so many of you have contemplated it. I notice that unrealone in post#2 has 3 mates from work interested as well .... that could make 7-8 at least. Since it's a cruise up SH1, Sinful might join you at 10 at Otaki ... just put a stake in the ground, it'll work.
Why not say 9:30 at Kapiti Mobil (Paraparaumu lights) and that should give everyone a target that will easily get you to Palmy by 11:00 for a latte.

Sinfull needs to be in palmy by 9.30 for the marshals meeting :whistle: but for sure exactly wot grubb said .. set ya times & others will show ..

9:30 departure from Kapiti Mobil it is. I'll be leaving Wellington CBD at 8:45. Look for this bike:

If Tumbles is leaving from the CBD, he looks like the best candidate
