    Thumbs up Saturday (not the WNR)

    Saturday (not the WNR)
    Christchurch Saturday (Not the Wednesday Night Cruises 2010)

    Note due to interest I have been asked to keep this running all year so........

    Every Saturday Weather Dependent - Meet at Burger King car park on Moorhouse Ave at 11.30am for a 12.00 departure.

    This is a social ride and an opportunity for a ride during the weekend, these rides started as a winter ride but now is running all year. The destination will generally be a pub or café for lunch, a drink and a chat.

    This is not a race from point A to point B. If you want to "see how fast you can go" then please just fuck off. Learners are most welcome on these runs, just let GlowPlug or me know who you are so we can assign a helper to ride with you at your pace.

    Ideally the route will be the same as the WNR however depending on the weather and road conditions the destination will change as required.

    Duvauchelles-Akaroa.
    Oxford.
    Leda valley.
    Wets Route.
    Diamond Harbor.

    The rules are the same as the WNR:

    1. Rider Responsibility
    It is the responsibility of each and every rider to ride safely and within their abilities. If any rider acts in a dangerous manner then they will be asked to leave. Remember, you not only put yourself at danger but also the other riders and the general public. If you do not understand this then do not come.

    2. Rider Assistance
    At the car park we’ll ask that riders who would like some one on one help will be asked to put their hands up and we’ll ask some of the more experienced riders to provide that help. Please don’t be shy. This is an excellent opportunity to ride with and learn from people who have many decades of riding under their belts.

    3. Leader
    The cruisy group will have a lead rider appointed each week. Obviously it will be someone with reasonable skill so as to not piss everyone off. The leader will stop at the pre-determined regroup points and wait for the entire group to arrive before departing.

    4. Tail End Charlie
    A TEC will also be determined as a safety measure.No body will ever be left behind on these runs.

    5. Rossi clones
    If you wish to do your own thing then feel free, but please leave the BK car park a bit earlier, before the rest of the group!! We'll see you at the pub (and we expect some beers waiting for us when we arive). There's nothing worse than someone trying to be Rossi and carving up the slower riders to get to the front. That's when accidents have happen. Leave first, ride hard and do not place the other's at risk. If we find you in a ditch we will provide first aid until the ambulance arives, but do not expect any sympathy on the web afterwards. If we find you talking to Mr Plod we will take and post photos.

    Disclaimer: Neither myself, nor any other participant is responsible for another rider's actions. Each rider is responsible for their own riding.

    Most of this was copied from Pheonixgtr, thanks.

    summit road from the hilltop is a bit dodgy with the slot in the seal about the width of a motorcycle tyre running down the middle of it, I'm assuming someone is putting a cable in the ground.
