The inaugural Wellington two-stroke run: Date planning

**White trash** · 6th December 2010, 20:01

OK. Seeing as I'm increasingly close to getting my notoriously unrliable MVX ready for rolling.

It occured to me, why don't we have a smelly old, fuck the enviroment, 2T ride?

I'm thinking late Jan early Feb. Departing Welly or wherever, meet on a Saturday night somewhere (if people want an overnighter) for beers and 2T discussion. Or just a day ride, I'm easy.

Let's have some thoughts please.

First off, who's keen regardless?
Secondly, who's keen for a one day or an overnighter?
Thirdly, what's a good weekend for you having posted your above preference?
Fourthly (is that a word Hitcher?), destination ideas please.

Date is set at 27th February and the route has been loosely set. She'll be a nice day jaunt through some of the 'Rapas best roads.

No support vehicle is organised folks so it's your own responsibility to ensure your machine is worthy of the task. Obviously the ride will be at varying pace but the route will be carefully explained, maps handed out and regroup points noted.

Dude. I'm taking the MVX. It's spare slugs not plugs.

Well I'll be there, that should be enough to make an informed decision. Perhaps your brother could bring his 1999 NSR500 V2 he imported?

Yes.

Just thinking (typing) out loud here.

I know of at least 2 very special 2T road bike builds in the making currently, one of which at least on KB. And the mintest (most mint?) RG500/RGV I've ever seen who could probably be convinced.

This could actually become a pretty special ride.

Added another option to the original post.

I would love too but I blew all mine up..... *sigh*

**F5 Dave** · 7th December 2010, 12:24

Yeah I'm keen, gives me a date to shoot for, but hey. I've missed all the other ones.

With a bit of luck I'll get some non porous barrels back from the US before Christmas, should be a breeze to get sorted by feb. Or are you talking about 2011?

It's sad as you get older to notice that some old friends get confused easily.

You're making me miss my KR1's...

Got it on TM at the mo mate...I've fucked my foot something bad, and hate mx over summer. So if it sells, I'll get another one built in time for winter! Need a V8 SS ute if you know of anyone parting with one! I could always come along on my TR50!

I sent you off a courier parcel today too. Let me know if it gets there safe and sound.

Guess I'd better let Vash and Mad Murray know about this huh?
Sounds like a fun ride though the most 'apartmented' parts of the the city early one Sunday then on to the countryside...

You're onto it! I'll do my secret muffler mod to the MVX if we end up a doing an inner city assault. I saw Murray Saturday too on his R1-Z, cool little bikes in the flesh. He had the gall to give ME shit about riding an MVX

However, I'm not hearing many potential dates or destinations being chucked around here folks.
