it probably won't be bruce:hug:,if that helps:lol:

[cowboyz]

I dont mind Bruce. Take him with a grain of salt. Just wondering as I already knew Bruce is not the president any more.

[KiwiKat]

New president CDMTC is Andrew. Meeting 1st Monday of month at High Flyers. Not sure of correct contacts as Website contacts on Silver Bullet are not current. I'm relatively new so don't know much but I've asked for more info.

[chanceyy]

sounds like it could be beemer's hubby then .. he is Andrew & heavily involved with central districts

Idea behind the change in format for the Wellington’s WIMA Pink Ribbon Ride.

The Wellington chapter of Women’s International Motorcycling Association (WIMA) have been supporting the Pink Ribbon appeal with a ride around Wellington since 2004. Each year the number of motorbike riders participating on the ride has been increasing and this year we anticipate about 100. All riders are invited to come along to support anyone they know who has been affected or is at risk, or whether they just want to make a donation and support a good cause. The ride concludes with raffle tickets being sold for prizes that have been kindly donated by various motorcycle shops in Wellington.



This year, we’d like to recognise the donations made by everyone. At the same time, we’d like to promote women on motorcycles. When we approached Scooterazzi about our idea of offering scooter rides of 10 minutes for $10 – they overwhelming offered to donate bikes, petrol, their time and expertise – so all proceeds would be donated to the Pink Ribbon appeal.



So the day has grown to the following.



12th Oct at the previously known Wellington Show Building, (Hutchison Rd, off John Street).. Newtown (TBC). 10am to 3pm



10.00am All riders to met at the old Wellington Showgrounds (Hutchison Rd, off John Street in Newtown). Ride to depart at 10:30am (Route – Island Bay via Adelaide Road, right around the bays including Moa Point, Shelly Bay, Oriental Parade, then up Taranaki St back to the Show Buildings). As the aim of ride is raise awareness of the days activities, riders are encouraged to ‘dress up’ themselves and/or their bike in spirit of the day, so it should be a great spectacle! ‘Best Dressed’ will be acknowledged.



10.00am Scooterazzi and xxxxxx start offering scooter rides. xxxxx will be available for instructions as well as other experienced trainers. $10 for 10 mins. A cone course will be setup to add to the experience on the scooter. Everyone is welcome to come and try.



10.00am All sponsors will be given the opportunity to set up a marque and act as collection points for the appeal. This will include motorbikes, motorbike gear, food, hot drinks, sausage sizzle, etc. Another opportunity we are working on is, if anyone will offer ‘pillion’ rides on a Harley?? Also – raffles are sold with the prizes having been donated by all the sponsors. This will happen throughout the day. There will also be an information tent on breast cancer.



10:30am The riders do a nice loud exit for their ride.



11:30am The riders return very loudly!!!



12:00noon A demonstration on bikes.



15:00pm All proceeds from the day and from the sponsored ride to Napier by Wellington WIMA 2 weeks prior are presented to the Auckland Breast Cancer Society representative who has come down for the day.



WIMA's Wellington President, Kate Harker, says "we are overwhelmed by the support women and men riding motorbikes have provided in organising this event, and look forward to seeing other members of the community also coming along to meet the riders, have some fun and above all support this great cause".

[ynot slow]

So do the funds go into the national collective breast cancer fund,or the lower Nth Island/Wellington region collective.Seems a shame if the majority of funds are raised in the Wellington area and get placed in the national fund.Not dissing the idea,but should be like relay 4 life where funds stay in the area they are raised from.

president is a guy called andrew pugh,andy king(beemers hubby)is treasurer/secretary:niceone:

Is that Bruce the Harley man that used to be a Triumph man?:blink:

[cowboyz]

No Bruce is/was the parts man at AFC. He since has moved to workshop manager at AFC. He is a wealth of knowledge about bikes/parts. He actually does know what he is talking about.
The only problem is that once you meet him you are left in no doubt how great he is - even if you dont ask.

Oh righto! I was thinking of heading down there tomorrow to check out tyres and find out how pedantic they are on WOF's.

absoultly my opinion and I can not and definitely would not discourage anyone from going to AFC but make sure your bike is 100% if you are taking it there for a warrent. (ie, less than 5 yrs old or you brought it from them)

[86GSXR]

Even if a Triumph was in a million bits (which it wouldn't be) it would still get a warrant :yes:

Your right. A triumph would never be in a million bits. Even new they come in a kitset 100 piece box labelled ages 5-7yrs dont they?

Only concern is the taillight. I've heard some places get silly about intergrated lights.

[cowboyz]

if you are quite sure the bike is fine just drop it through on road or vtnz. same money, 10 mins , in and out.

Wairarapa this weekend. I'm supposed to be heading to Castlepoint this Sunday 21/09 with CDMTC. Leaving BP Metro at 10:00, but I hear Carterton Sprints are on. Can't find any information on this. Is it good value.

[cowboyz]

As yet I have never made it down to the sprints but always good reports come out of the day. I wont be making this weekend either BTW.

You up for meeting the rest of us on fri night? You have seen the welcoming Maha to Ashhurst thread?

Kiwikats away with family and caravan Friday and Saturday. Everyone have a great weekend whatever you're doing.

I saw that and found it ironic that it spent 2 days in meetings and events and no one commented on it.

It will be on the day call for me. my oct/nov is pretty booked up right now so jury way out. Be good to have a gander at it though.

I am thinking of going down to the Wellington Pink Ribbon ride if anyone wants to go down in a group:chase:.
They are meeting in Newtown at 9.30 to ride out at 10.30. It will be an early start :zzzz:for us but if the weather is kind it would be a good day.
Remember to dress in your best `pink` outfit :dodge:
Details are on the calendar and I can't do links so go and look there.:laugh:

Yeah, I'd quite like to go down to this, but at this stage I'm not sure if I'm going to be on call or not (and therefore whether I can leave town). Should have that sorted later this week.

Actually doesn't look like I'll be able to make it down to the WIMA ride - went through and worked out the on-call roster for the rest of the year, and with all the other weekends I want free (including the 4pts) I just can't really make it down to Welly for WIMA.

Oh right - no, never been there. :) I'm not sure if I fit the mold of the "typical" Harley rider, but I'm not much of a regular pubgoer anywhere, to be honest. :)
