    13 October. AMI Netball centre, St Johns. WIMA are the organisers, but no idea why the website isn't up to date: http://www.wima.org.nz/pages/Pink_Ribbon.php

    yup You have to be aware for sure, some parts of the pack were not bad at all, I mostly had one bike behind me that kept its distance but could see worse ahead when I moved up when we split changing lanes.


    If in doubt ask for a backstop, Its no like we would say no as no one is going to get there faster :P

    All in all a well organized ride.

    I think a few of the same crew are helping with the Pink Ribbon ride? I might be on that ride as well all going to plan

    A great ride, thanks to all who helped make it such a great time for all.

    The videos on youtube of Sunday's ride are interesting... However, are there any of the actual ride? I thought I saw "Nigel's friend" videoing the ride and wondering, if that's the case any chance of seeing the results?
