No day is so bad that it can't be fixed with a nap

Tentatively, I'm keen. Which way to Clevedon? Scenic route or the other way?
Last time we stopped for fush'n'chops, didn't think much of the chops, but the fush was good. Kaikohe had better chops, but the fush was dodgy. Shop in Matamata does both good.
What was the start time?
As for ability, been riding road about 1-1/2 years, refuse to ride at a pace I'm not happy about and don't care about being tailendcharlie. Commute every day and do longer rides on the weekend - when not riding offroad. Have full licence. Love riding twisty roads, but suck at them.
Again, I'm a tentative, not a definite (talk was of going camping that weekend, but will let you know in the week before).
Best Frenemy you could have!
Route will be through beachlands, maraetai, take in the pohutukawa coast.
Start will be mid morning most likely, so 10-11, but that is yet to be decided absolutely.

If someone who doesnt have a bike is interested in going (to be sociable of course).. then the back of the busa is freePM me and let me know... Depends on me being able to organise a few things, but there is a good chance I will be there
It's been a rough day. I got up this morning, put on a shirt and a button fell off.
As I ran out the door, I picked up my briefcase, and the handle came off.
Now I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.

Beware the two sets of major roadworks on the Whitford-Brookby road, between Sandstone Rd and Ara-Kotinga Roads if you're going that way. I suspect by the 29th it'll probably be sealed, but there'll still be lots of gravel on it. Its thru curves and theres "some" camber on the road too.

Hi Weasle Im able to help you on that weekend
Moped rider
i might have a scoot around the area the day before to see what the roads are like.

Beware the psychosis llama...
I'm super-keen to learn from experienced riders (4+ months and 4000+km under my belt so far...), and I imagine Mrs P would be too...Murphy's law would have it that this is on the 29th. Sadly I must pick up a mate from the Airport on at 1pm that day...
This is a fantastic initiative - I'll keep a look out for the next equivalent ride...

Awesome stuff here Weasel. I think you've got all your bases organised. I don't think there's any need for me to proceed any further with the stuff I PM'ed you.
I'll be off with QkChk and co up north so regretfully I wont be around.
Glad to see you have excellent riders like M1cro etc there to help you out. Have a chat with this chap - he's a BRONZ riding instructor with heaps of experience that can help newbies- the same applies to all the other experienced riders, they have a ton of info we newbies can learn - so all you guys/gals don't hesitate to ask them any questions none of them bite.
Enjoy yourselves and be safe
