Wellington Newbie ride Sunday 12 March

[Uncle B]

This is a chance for newer riders to get togeather and head out on an organised ride.
THIS IS NOT A RACE.....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.


I have been asked about the "L" plate debate. I cannot enforce the usage of "L" plates but do point out the consequences if caught.
The "L"s will be catered for by having their own group with an experienced rider who will know the determined route.

See you there

[knight rider]

I'll be there & I am a learner rider so will have to display my L plate. keep an eye out for the black cbr250rr

Excellent - but I may have round 2 of hockey trials Sunday 12th... will see if I can wu the pants off them this weekend (yeah right) and skip the 2nd trial so I can ride!

Sounds good to me. Need to do a bit re-arranging to free the afternoon but as I've missed out on the last two that were arranged, I will hopefully be there. I'm in Tawa. I'm sure there may a few of us on this side of the hill to organise a group ride over the Haywards to get to the main meet.
Will confirm attendence later next week.
