Anyone heard about a "Slow Ride to Welington"?

I tend to agree with Bassmatt's concern. On a Thursday and a week away... The numbers might not be too great.

Well, firstly I didn't organise it. I'm just the fella copping the bullets (who'd be a messenger eh?)

I'm just passing some info on. I don't know about any organised plan yet to be honest - this is a few people just trying to gain some attention.

Who knows what will happen?

September 26th. Thursday seems to be the one at the moment.

Details not finalised yet, but the idea is to congest traffic with a large amount of motorcycles, helping to raise awareness of how many of us there really are out there.

I'll get more information on here as soon as I can.

All that does is piss off all the other traffic who are going about their legal business. Go take your protests to the people who are causing the issue not innocent bystanders. Take your bike into ACC and block their doors. Yes I ride a bike and don't like the ACC charges but getting other road users to hate you for holding them up is not way to go about it. No wonder cage drivers don't care at times.

Nice idea man, but it wouldn't work. You might as well shout at your telly.
