I should clarify that I didn't mean the St John's one, not such a fan of those massive rides. Too many people to be comfortable. But I will be out and about on the shingle during the day I think, and will be at the Moorhouse carpark.

Gammaguy, it'd be good to see you in person! Spuds, I would move the very earth to see you there. Maybe not the earth. I would move myself. Pete, have a good ride, hope you're still rocking the camera everywhere!

Post up a destination and a time to be there and I'll do my level best to get there on time.

They have no authority to charge you money to ride on a public road.

[Gareth123]

Perhaps instead of doing the St Johns ride, we could organise a meet up at BK Moorhouse at say 1130. That gives the ones who want to donate an hour to go down and flick St Johns a few bob, collect a badge and then get to BK.

What do you guys reckon?

They have no authority to charge you money to ride on a public road.

That is the badge money, which along with the raffle money, is donated to St John, this year it goes to the ashburton branch

Our ambulance service is not fully funded, and needs the graces of volunteers and donations




I don't like riding in large groups, the ride is split up into small groups with a Ulysses rider, well historically anyway

And some people just donate because they can, no one is going to tip you upside for a tenner

So the old boys putting anything on out in LR or is just a big ride there then everyone buggers off home?

Nope, there is usually a fair, raffles are drawn out there etc at the domain

Good if it's a nice afternoon, I will probably be wearing a hiviz and hocking off raffle tickets

Thank god for that, seemed like a hell of a long wait before we rode lol sorry information third hand from Ulysses club riders. All I do know is there is a BBQ somewhere lol which I intend on visiting before heading to Aka's along with the others and tghe weather sounds awesome too

well, I am so insecure about riding in big groups of riders who have been riding in groups for many years that I will meet at BK with a group of learners who have only been on the road a matter of days in comparison and ride with them because they are going to be so much safer and organized than the Ulysses club who have done this for many years this insecurity I will boast about so will gladly avoid large group ride to ride with learners and noobs!

I will be riding with the dangerous group from South City
I will give my $10 donation and receive a badge
I will ride to little river and spend some time at the event there
I will also be riding on tho Akaroa if the weather is good
If I an riding at a pace that is slow when you catch up with me, then pass me and keep going
If I am riding at a pace that I catch up with you I will pass you and keep going
I ride to what I think is correct for the conditions.

See you at South City, Little River or Akaroa if the sun is shinning.

The main things are to enjoy the day, have fun, and be a safe rider, all three are up to you as an individual

Ill see you there bro! I have never ridden with more then 2 people but ill meet you up there and got at my own pace to LR then might follow you lot out to akaroa. Ill be the big fella on the black busa.

[Peeteey]

Should we organise a spot and time to meet in the car park?

I'm not sure what it will be like tomorrow, anyone that has been before have any bright ideas? Would be nice to ride with you buggers in amongst the sea of Harleys

[Subike]

meetimg point?
To state a point now would be rather difficult, as there will be bikes everywhere,
but I suggest as close to the wharehouse stationary on whitmore street.
