Weather looks clear and crispy so those that have willie warmers better wear them.
Lets all have a fun - incident free day

Hi Guys

Just as a precaution I thought I'd mention that a different ride that I've organised is staying overnight down the coast - we're leaving later than you guys seeing as we don't need to get back to Auckland the same day.

We are going anti-clockwise (opposite to you lot) so that we get to do SH25B twice for the day.

Keep an eye out for us (small relatively sedate group, silver R1, green Speed Triple, black GSXR600 and yellow Beemer) not sure what time we'll be passing each other on the loop but I'd hate to meet in a nasty way.

Safe lines everyone and watch out for the cages too.

Cheers

Hi Guys

No cutting corners on the Coro Hill please, haha. I live 5 minutes from the western side and plan to be up and down it tomorrow to bed in a brand new set of Avon VP2 sport tyres. Will be going fairly easy for a start.

Ok you lot, it's been about 5 years or so since I've done the loop, can't be racing that weekend at minefield, can't afford the trackday at taupo, so the loop it is.
Meet at the Papakura autobahn at 9.30 for a 10am departure.
Prolly go via clevedon ( the hunua's are a bit yuk this time of the year ) then down the coast and across to kopu ( can meet hamiltonians there @11 ish), clockwise round the loop prolly stop briefly at whitianga for lunch, then back home via clevedon again.
As with most rides I do, everyone is welcome to tag along (we wait at the turnoffs for stragglers) so the more the merrier.
If the weathers crap may call it off, but here's hoping ....
Edit: the long range forecast looks ok
Saturday
North Island, mostly fine with morning frosts, but showery in the east and a few showers from Taranaki down to Kapiti.
