    Mid-week rides (Bay of Plenty) this thurs or friday. see last post

    Hi all, as I will no longer be gainfully employed after next Thursday (28th) it seems like a good time to fit in some mid week rides. If anyone has a bit spare time & would like to tag along send me a Pm. I’m open to suggestions on any destinations. I was thinking 2 day/over night out of BOP/Waikato
    Might have a look around east coast to Gissie down to Wairoa & back through Waikaremoana as my first ride.
    would be good to have some company

    Cheers

    Dave

    Unemployed as of next monday then going away for a few days after that.

    Be Keen for some midweek rides after the long weekend, though overnighters would have to be on the budget side now that there is no money coming in.

    Might be able to convince triboy to tag along also.

    Would have to think up a suitable name for the group

    Overnighters need not cost anything! stealth camping!

    I'm sure most cockies wouldnt mind us dossing down in the hay barn or putting up a few tents if we ask nicely enough... or just dont get caught

    Hi, Dave and all. I'm sort of in the same boat - but it's my own business, so I'm just dramatically cutting down expenditure and spending my weeks trying to generate more work. No mid-week rides for me sob sob.
