• Fat Bikers Motorcycle Club Official Launch / Lunch - NEW DATE - SUNDAY 6TH FEB 2011

    THE DATE FOR THIS EVENT HAS NOW CHANGED TO SUNDAY 6TH FEBRUARY 2011

    You are cordially invited to join us as we celebrate the official launch of the Fat Bikers Motorcycle Club…..so people, lets do a lunch launch..!!

    This will be a gastronomic event of voluptuous proportions based on a traditional meal that has been handed down from fat bastard to fat bastard over the centuries and now resurrected to lick start your waistline for 2011 and beyond.

    But first, a little history.

    In 1875, a small group of settlers decided that it was time to ditch the bland and unsavory fare of the day and go looking for new and exciting food. Their quest led them to the ancient tomb of King Farquar Crispin, leader of the Colsaunders Tribe, a mysterious race of people who specialized in blending herbs and spices. Deep in the bowels of the tomb they found a fossilized manuscript entitled Potsannagravy which, when interpreted, was in fact a secret recipe for the main diet of the Colsaunders people. This was hastily recreated and scoffed down.

    However, the settlers longed for more, and it was almost 200 years later that they discovered a further tribe called the Macdees. Originally form Scotland, the Macdees had a fearsome reputation. Their leader Ron Macdee, was renowned for squashing whole cows into a round shape that was then placed on the ceremonial grill and served to his faithful warriors. Again, the settlers resurrected the ancient recipe and called it ‘The Pounder’ after Ron Macdee’s squashing activities. The settlers realized that a full cow was far too much to eat in one sitting so they divided it into quarters and threw in some cheese to keep the flies away.

    These discoveries led to the famous meal of King Farquar Crispin’s Potsannagravy (KFC Potatoes and Gravy) followed by the divided Pounder of the Macdees tribe (Macdonalds Quarter Pounder).

    So people, we will be launching the FBMC with a 3 course traditional lunch starting with Potatoes and Gravy (with spicy chips) at KFC followed by a trip to MacDonalds for a Quarter Pounder and finishing up with a desert pie on the beach (or where ever)

    These are the details for the Auckland event:

    Meet at KFC Quay Street at 11.00am for a scoff down at 11.30.

    Then ride (but I suppose we should walk, they are next to each other) to McDonalds Quay Street for a quarter pounder.
    Then ride (no walking this time) to Mission Bay via a loop of Quay Street / Beach Road / The Strand / Tamaki Drive to Mission Bay where we have our desert pie, talk some bollocks and what ever else.

    This is a national event and the idea is for those all around this great country to get on board and do the same. You can find your local KFC and McD’s on these links:

    Remember to bring your bike, a camera and your choice of desert pie

    That’s that. Hope you can make it. See you for lunch…

      Not long to go now people, ooohhhhh....

      There has been a bit of confusion over the FBMC event dates so I shall try and clear this up now.

      The FBMC Launch Lunch scheduled for this Sunday, 6th February is still on so make sure you have your desert pies, cameras and.....now what was the other thing.....erm.....oh yeah, your bike...all ready to go.

      The Inagural Gut Bucket Race Day scheduled for the 6th March 2011 clashes with a number of opther events so that one will be rescheduled, but I will talk more about that at the Auckland Launch.

      So there you have it people, Sunday is looking good for a gastromic couple of hours in the company of calories.....rock on....woo hoo

      Well, what a day, KFC Quay street City (Dorkland) didn't know what hit em.They had just "two" staff on this morning when 20 plus hungry Fatt barstard Motorcyclists descended on them for the first course of a three course meet and eat.
      Took em a while but they got there in the end.
      Off to Mc Dee's then, they were a little more switched on but their incessant bloody Fire alarm(tell the dumb ass staff their chips are cooked alarm) never stopped going and when asked if it could be removed from our hearing they got rather tetchy.
      FM got his just DESERTS today. Pics should say it all.
      Great Inaugural ride and the many passers by in Mission bay who stopped and looked at the bikes and asked us what the occassion was were all very happy to have us there. Warm fuzzy Wuzzies all round.

      Laaaaaverly afternoon out, thanks to everyone who turned up for this gastrominc extravaganza.

      Yes indeed, KFC didnt know what hit 'em but Macca D's know how to handle a fat biker or two.

      And yes, I was deserted by the good folk norf of the bridge but it would have been rude not too. I am still picking sprinkles out of my nostrils and even found a cherry down the back of my shirt.

      Great day, check out the flabby legends who made this a scoff to remember....
