    Sorry in advance to those experiencing inclimactic weather. But Dogam! It is the perfect day to paint or trim trees or wash the car. Don't do any of those things. Don't even call a friend. Just get out there and ride while you can. You don't work all week to mow the lawn. I'm not...

      I can't find any details on the ride other than the PN square and Apiti. Can someone provide some info on the route or is it just a ride up to Apiti and back. I am not being picky - correction yes I am - I have many options for rides and there needs to be a good ride on offer to to buzz up SH1 or SH2 for.

      Gidday, The ride is around the Apiti loop, so the Square to Ashhurst, up Pohangina Valley to the top of Apiti, back down through Kimbolton, Cheltenham, Feilding , Awahuri, to the Square, BBQ lunch included and auction of misc items there after.......Hope I've convinced you to come, it is an awesome, scenic fully sealed route, not to mention the cause.

      Actually guys, that's a vey good point. I think the details should be in the OP and a map of the route included. Afterall, it's a magic run this one.

      Wow what luck I was planning on doing this ride before daylight savings ends ( never ridden the loop before) but know its awesome, and now I see it posted here with the opportunity to support a more than worthy cause (bonus).
      Will definitely be there.

      .... also was talking about this event to a couple of kapiti riders last sunday as we stopped for a cold one in Kimbolton. None had heard of it but all were keen so hopefully through continued pestering wil bring them along too

      I must agree - good cause or not it is the event and ride that will attract riders. I can confirm this is a nice loop with good corners and views which at a slower pace we will be able to appreciate.

      Should be a really good day and the road is in pretty good condition at the moment, had a fun blatt over it the other arvo. A little gravel on the seal on one of the twisties from this direction but nothing that should cause concern and will probably be gone by next month by any luck.

      Great idea to combine a good route with raising money for kids that really need it.

      Plenty of riders should turn up if they are not off to the March hare I reckon. Look forward to seeing you there

      Thanks for your support, Sarah, it is an excellent cause, I am hoping to "Put it on the Map" as such, so the more bikers the better and the more people I can make aware of the house the better for them.
