TRTNR - Wgtn ride 19/01/06

[Sparky Bills]

Oi stop typing too fast.

HAHA, Sorry mate.

[hsvboy06]

It just doesn't seem like much of a group ride for me when everyone else is miles ahead and I catch up in time to get going again and get left behind again. ... Looking forward to the newbie ride if thats still on

Ditto. I can't make it this week, but maybe next - I'm certainly not going to be too fast for you!

[Slingshot]

The weather looks like it's gonna be crap tomorrow.


Hitcher...Wherefore art thou Hitcher? It's time for you to get that bike of yours fixed (or replaced), strap up the shoulder and the resurrect TOTNR!!!
It looks like you'd have a reasonable following.

Are you on drugs?...or baiting me?
The weather is going to be great. Woo hoo...weather looks fantastic for the start of my trip on Sunday.

Personally I reckon we should vary where we fo on these rides a bit more, just from the perspective of avoiding cop attention. So I'd be keen to do a diff road this week - maybe the one we were going to do last week (sorry Sean!).

Shhhhh. Even the trees have ears.

There are actually a few more roads that are good options though. It's just that none of them take as long as the Takas.

[Wasp]

meh, whatever. I dont know the roads well but I know a good back road out the back of martinborough but that would take too long.

was gonna type something else but i cant remember waht.

[Bloody Mad Woman (BMW)]

Hopefully I will be there, I'll have panniers on my bike - but hey they have never slowed me down!

[phoenixgtr]

Forecast for this avo is bright and sunny, although, I'll believe it when I see it. I'm keen to check out a different road, but I don't know any

Sweet! Well here ya go people...
We have somewhere to put beers!

[Slingshot]

The weather is starting to look up!

So route A, B or C? We did half of A last week before it got a bit damp so then decided to do part of B...Perhaps we should try route C this week unless someone knows of a route D...there are some roads that go off route C which could perhaps become route D but I'm not sure what they're like.

From what I hear, there was an incident on route B earlier this week so there may be some ashes lying around still.

Confused yet?

[skelstar]

Well I scoped out route C for you guys last week. I wouldnt mind B, but then theres a bit of traffic on B isnt there?
Lets not to C if its wind-D.
