    Wgtn ride this Sat (2/7) over the hill

    Just thought I'd post this in here because this ride evolved out of another thread and is tucked away in the "New Members" part where people might not see it.

    10:30 at Caltex Rimutaka - the usual. Anyone who's keen, come along.

    Sounds good to me.


    How's the road at the moment? I've heard that there was some snow up there recently so hopefully they haven't covered the road in crap.

    I hope to be at the pub by then. Either that or still there from Friday night

    Have you seen all the marquees going up around Wellington so they can fit more drunks in And courtney place is closed for the weekend so I would have to take the long way to get onto the motorway. Soo many excuses
    Has anyone seen my baffles?

    Yay...Marquees. Yay...Courtenay place closed off (unlike New Years when it took 30mins to walk on teh 'sidewalk' from Jet to Milk! ). I'll not be making this ride either...I intend to be still partying from Phil Reynolds set.

    Mrs H and I are planning a "road the blocker" tomorrow (Wairarapa various routes, Saddle Hill, home via Palmerston North). If we're away at a reasonable hour we may see some of you at Caltex Rimutaka. Waifs and strays are always welcome to join us.

    Hell, I'd love to come, but somehow I don't think I'd keep up in my oilburner. But I'll be there as soon as I sell my boat and buy something that is built for speed. Have fun tomorrow guys.

    Thumbs up Great ride today!

    Hey All,
    Thanks for the great ride! To my horror I realised it's the first time I've been over the Rimutakas since I came back from my SI tour! Anyway great to catch up with everyone.

    Thanks Mike for staying back with me at the start...and you too Bruce (although I suspect that was more to do with the bike you had aquired at that stage of the ride). Sels1 and I headed back over the Takas and man oh man was it cccccold on that Hutt M/W! THen coming through town we got behind some young chaps who thought it was really cool that their car back fired like a sawn off shotgun! After the first few times I no longer had a heart attack every time it happened.

    Cheers whoever organised it.

    Btw - the 'petrol pissing out problem' seems to have righted itself. :spudwhat:
