There's one in Rotheram on Sunday, but that's half way between Christchurch and Hanmer, on the way to Waiau.

You could be right... also looks like there may be one run by the Ashburton Motorcycle Club on Sunday...

The Rotheram ride on Sunday was quite good. Enjoyed the terrain more than the Waiau Sunday ride. Lots of elevation change, not much flat paddock.
