Cambridge To Hamilton Child Cancer Toy Run

**kickingzebra** · 9th March 2006, 18:42

I was the turkey all along!!!! Me and the missus in, assuming the bike is in a good state of repair... Guess the clutch didn't like the wheelies?? Give it heaps and drop the clutch when you are crawling, when I had an FXR I could make the nose hit skywards (not on a full tank!)

so should I just bring a bunch of toys my kids don't use?
(I haven't been on one of these before)

Is it a done deal that we meet near the Ham East Burger King car park or somewhere like that or some where else...

I probably won't be on the toy run itself as my bike absolutely hates moving slowly or idling for long periods (no radiator fans). 2 minutes idling and it hits almost 100 degrees. So I'll probably catch everyone at the Eastside unless I jump on the back of somebodies bike.

National Auto show is the same weekend so I'll probably be in town.

That's all sweet... Quasievil is in the same boat as you... there's always Momentum's place (I think)... that may be worth a check if you're still looking for something to do...

I don't know Cambridge well enough to designate a meeting place... if anyone wants to designate one, please go ahead

**ZeroIndex** · 14th March 2006, 12:41

OK, the votes are in... (well, not really) The meet-up will be at the Caltex garage on Cobham Drive (the one that Carver used for the whitehall run on Sunday just gone). The after-meet, I'm gonna move the official after-meet to Momentum's place: was there on Sunday, and that place is huge. Plenty of room for parking etc. If anyone still wants to go to the Eastside Tavern, go ahead, but Momentum's place will do well, especially for those with kids as pillions (Quasievil and Qman).

Momentum can give directions to his place as I don't want to broadcast his address to the entire world... oh... wait, it's in a post on page 2

Well... cya there everyone

**Waylander** · 16th March 2006, 21:08

Cobham drive Caltex?Is that the one that is near the BK on Cambridge road or is this one closer to the pack and save on the other side of town?

Old age sapping my memory heh.

**Big Chim** · 16th March 2006, 21:09

**Waylander** · 16th March 2006, 21:24

Ah ok no worries on finding it then considering where I will be staying tomorrow night lol.

Hey Rob, I've only been to 1 previous Toyrun. But there are 100's of bikes lining up on 3+streets in Cambridge. Nearer the front is in my opinion better. There are plenty of bikes to look at and people to catch-up with while you wait, I'd suggest getting to Cambridge at 9.30 not leaving Hamilton ... My 2 cents worth
