    See you there HelloKitty. I'll be coming up from Tauranga, and I'm sure there'll be at least a couple of other Tauranga Ulysees Club members along too.

    Look for a silver and burgundy Hyosung GV250, I wear a white helmet and a fluoro yellow hi-viz. Oh, and Gloria has had a pipe=ectomy too, so she'll be noticeable.

    Shit, that probably means leaving here at some time before 7.00 am. OMG, that's worse than a work day!

    Well, I wear a white and pink jacket (look at the profile pic) and ride a silver Honda VT750 with a pink hello kitty sticker on the back guard. Come up and say hi cos I will probably be a bit shy on my own. I would like to join Ulysees but you have to be over 40 don't you?

    Yeah, the Ulysees Club is for the older rider.

    However I'm sure your local branch wouldn't mind you riding with them for 15 to 20 years until you're old enough to join.

    Go onto ulysees.co.nz and find out where your local club meets, usually on a Sunday morning, and turn up and introduce yourself. They won't bite your head off.

    Will keep an eye out on March 6th.

    If you are interested, have a look here: -

    The events list gives some idea of the variety of tastes catered to.
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    Thanks! You have to be sponsored by an existing member? I am sure I can chat one up?

    Yes, but it can be just a bit of a formality. If you turned up at a ride or a clubnight or two, it would very likely take care of itself.
    You could always smile nicely at me.

    I will try that then! I want to ride with people with a "mature" outlook. The only group ride offers I get are from young boys on sports bike and they ride like crazy fools.

    No I can't, we have my husbands kids that weekend, so if I went, it would have to be on my own.

    I think I will go on that ride this year. The FBMC Gut Bucket ride is supposed to be that day but I will shift that.

    Anyone wanna ride with a fat bloke?
