Hi there guys, thought i would keep you bikers up to date, we have a few MPs turning up i have been contacted by a few radio stations and newspapers so will let them know where we stand and have prayed to the weather gods for excellent weather, have contacted every bike shop and club i can think of and word of mouth as well. Will keep all informed as we get closer to the day and really hope for a good turn out by all bikers from 50cc upwards as this effects every biker in NZ

I think King of Ruapuna racing is on that day.

Well i have done as much as i can to organise this thing with some help from others, so its up to u guys and girls know to turn up and make your bike and voice heard. Just one more thing if the scooters arn't keen to ride with us from rolleston then we will meet you in templeton and then you can join in the ride from there, your choice and you know what your bike is capable of.

There's a sign on the left as you approach Colombo Street, trouble is its obscured by a big tree and you aren't aware it's there until you're on top of it.

Can definitly count me in, and possibly the flatmate. He has a vespa, but its a 200 so i think it can hit 100ks.

knuckles... thanks for the treat in my inbox! a couple or not too bad looking lesbians at the bottom of the email

i will talk to my boss about time off, but i dont think she will go for it... dec is all hands on deck! are the ferries doing cheap rates again like they did last time? im thinking a day to get to chch, a day in chch, and a day to get home again... should be do-able. first time i went down i did welly to chch in a day.

edit: if i can come, i have hazards on my bike and would be happy to look after the slower riders again, so long as ive got a detailed map of the route or someone with the group who knows where they are going and can lead.

John Key is not opening Pegasus. It's being opened by a Waimakariri District Councillor. Who is organising the ride to Pegasus?
