Wellington Newbie ride 12 Feb

**Uncle B** · 1st February 2006, 21:17

This is a chance for newer riders in the area to get togeather and head out on an organised ride.
THIS IS NOT A RACE...which is most important cause we don't want anybody crashing as it will be a fun day out.
Go at your own pace, there will be people who will wait for you.
Make sure your bike is road legal ie: warrant, rego, chain oiled and adjusted, tyres the correct pressure......

Townies: Meet at the caltex truck stop Hutt road Kaiwharawhara 10:15am for 10:30am departure.
All others meet at Caltex Rimutaka 11:00am for 11:20am departure.

LETS MAKE THIS A GREAT DAY

Also looking for experienced riders to help out with back markers and to share riding tips and any questions the newbies might ask.

Good stuff Uncle B.

Should be there.

**madboy** · 1st February 2006, 21:31

Careful the pace ain't too hot for ya Skelstar. I'd be there to help at the back but sadly I'll be staring at strippers in Surfers... oh, no, hang on - Mrs and I will be at [insert overpriced theme park name here].

Hey, I might be lucky enough to find someone who knows less than me...or has a slower bike than me. Nah, who am I kidding?

**Darkman** · 1st February 2006, 21:57

I will be there to help out if needed. Won't bail on you this time uncle B..

**Uncle B** · 1st February 2006, 21:57

Sean when are you gonna realise you only think your slow cos your the slowest person in the fast group......... Your still well ahead of me. ofcourse my bike is more than 20 years older than yours but that wouldnt make too much of a difference now would it?

I'll be there, any chance that the march one will be on the 12? theres a work bbq commng up and its either on the 5th or 12 of march and i'd like to do both.

I was looking at the 12th for the next ride. Drop me a line when you've found out the BBQ date.
