Corro loop ride - starts in Auckland - 25-2-06

[NhuanH]

Someone want to decide where / when to meet?

jbauer, make sure the bike shop has some sticky tires on your steed as well and that it'll last your entire trip.

Clevedon, 10am, same as departing for Paeroa way last week.

I've gotta back out..
stoopid wedding that i forgot about..

HEY MAN.. thats MY wedding your going to !!!!

[GIXser]

Again, might I suggest Shell Clevedon as the rendezvous for the beginning of the coastal loop? Just like a lot of us headed to Paeroa on the weekend.

You miss out on the nice coast if you track through the Hunuas from Papakura Autobahn, and going back to Clevedon is, well, backwards.

Like I said in the beginning Jon, I'll meet you at Barry's Point and show you to Clevedon, no problems.

im with you, i reckon via clevedon, is the best loop--- i'll be there at 10,, also for those of us that dont' want to continue on to whangamata, we can turn off and head back down to kopu, the rest can head on to whangamata, if we leave clevedon say 10.30 , and for those that want to head back before the turn off to whangamata, we should be back in auckland at approx 3 'oclock

[Lou Girardin]

Of course I don't!

I kinda figured that. I usually do LONG rides here in SF, but I am sure I'll be adjusting accordingly on this trip...

We rent a lot of bikes to your fellow Merkins, they find that they can't do the same distances here as in the USA. Twistier roads and too much to look at. If you keep your plans flexible you can play it by ear.

[DEATH_INC.]

I may tag along....see how the paw holds up....

I may meet you's out by Kopu prolly round the 11.30 mark by the time you make yor way from Clevedon. See you's out there, hopefully i can get some new rubber by then, mines shot already.

Clevedon, 10am, same as departing for Paeroa way last week.

Anyone want to meet at the Botany Down's BP first and ride down to meet the others at Clevedon?????

[Leong]

This is gonna be a great KB event!! Pity I can't make it.... Have fun Guys and girls!!

[jimevo]

Anyone want to meet at the Botany Down's BP first and ride down to meet the others at Clevedon?????

That's what I suggested to these guys earlier but........

I may tag along if anyone is keen to meet up at Botany BP and head off towards Clevedon.

[jbauer]

Ok, I'm planning to be at the moto place at 9:00 AM on Saturday. I don't know the other places you guys/gals are talking about, so I'll plan to tag along and go wherever you lead me...

I'm a bit worried - I extended my stay in NZ for another 3 days and the bike shop hasn't confirmed that I can keep the bike for that long... Hope they confirm tomorrow.

During the big polo games, I met a friend here in Auckland that is having a big birthday celebration in Wellington, so I'm planning to head down there for that. Will be in the middle of my trip, so I can take a break too...

Oi - Keep it simple people ONE meeting place, Clevedon Shell at 10am sharp ya muppets, otherwise we'll end up with people all over bloody auckland.

As i said i'll meet ya's at Kopu, got some shit to sort out down that way first, plus chances are i'll flush any snakes out to clear the way for you guys.
