I so love this whole community! Katiepie, Quasi, Hawkeye, Eyegasm....all of you! It is so good to know that by taking on this new phase in my life I have gotten to know so many people. So many excellent kiwis who are just there to help out and encourage. It is so nice! Eyegasm, all good mate....I am pretty loose! Will go out with anyone! hahahahaha. Truely though, if anyone is willing to take me on, then I would love to go out with them! Thanks everyone. Hoping to meet everyone else on this forum in person. I have even plucked up courage after yesterday to go forn another ride even if it is raining!!! Thanks Hawkeye!

Sorry for late posting People.
I hear the Makara run was a success.
I propose a Hutt run around Whitemans Valley and back down the Motorway to Petone McD's for a social get together.

Thanks to everyone who turned up last week. Apologies if you were late and then couldnt find us. Change of plan decided among the riders on the day. As these are social rides, it's the way it goes ! Still, nice blat over to the Coast, interesting ride with the wind on the way back.sheesh!

I'm keen to do the Hutt Route this week, so I want to try again on Tuesday. head over into Whitemans Valley, up to Maymorn and then back down to McD in Petone. Slow or nervous riders, the first bit is a challenge, but take your time and dont let anyone push you along. I'll be right at the back with Ducky and we are happy to chug along at 30kph if that's what you need to do.

see you after 5.30pm. Leaving at 6.30 on the dot...

Is that Whitemans via Blue Mountain or in from Wallaceville ?

**Ratti** · 12th February 2011, 18:12

dont ask hard questions Baldy. SImple answer is, buggered if I know. We start from the Pond and head up the Valley, turn right, over the hills and far away. Then we end up home again.

Stain or Eyegasm will know, it's the route with the windy bit at the start of the hill climb.

Clutch lever replaced, late pass booked, see you at the pond.

Great road to go for a quiet pootle along. You did an admirable job of following your nose.
Good to see you again Timo, and to meet your new love. You look great together!

Same time next week for those who decided not to come along.
