Sounds about it from what I've seen of them...

Theres plans afoot to drop the minimum age to 35 as they have done with the Canadian Branch. Still doesnt stop anyone from joining in with the rides.

OK I can see I am too ambigious here:slap:

When you read the comments by our National Secretary about the spam we have been getting, you will see the link. I don't want to put the link up here so if you have trouble finding it, PM me.

It is a set up similar to this site, so you will be right at home.

Basically lack of numbers to keep going.

BUT the Ronnie Run is still on - 23 April 06. Auckland Ulysses have picked it up at Talamarkos request.

Will, the link to "Threaded Discussion" still takes us to the old threaded discussion page so what are you on about? Unless there is some secret link it is nowhere near like this forum and never was so I don't know how you can say it is similar. You can't post pictures or do anything flash like we do here.

Either that or spill the beans what is the link to the new flash page?

I am a Ulysses club member.

I go regularly to the monthly meetings. I live the farthest away (100km) and I am often the only member who turns up on a motorbike. Even to some of the ride In's!

There is a lot about Ulysses that I find very boring but you can say that about life in general. Even about this forum!

I remain a member because it's a "Bike club" and I have made some good friends amongst them and its "my choice" to remain a member.

I am quite proud to say that I am a Ulysses Club member.

Different strokes for different folks I guess!

I also consider myself to be a loyal and "try to be" active "Kiwi Biker".

I went to the Vincent rally for the day yesterday especially hoping to meet up with some other KBer's.

I met up with a lot of fellow Ulysses club members and made some new friends but never met up with or was able to identify in the crowd, any Kiwi Bikers! That was disappointing.

Maybe they saw me before I saw them!

I have looked on the "Ulysses Webb site" and there is nothing like this forum that I can find.

I think it would be good to have but the thing I like most about this forum is that it reaches a very broad spectrum of, age, sex, geographic area and bike types and brands.

Now you can't get much better than that! Can you?

Ulysses "and" Kiwi biker!

Cheers John.

Hi oldrider. I just checked the kiwi Ulysses page and it looks like the forum is under "Threaded Discussion".
The Aussie forum is quite slow. Any forum would seem quite slow after K.B!
