Cheers, i haven't attended for a couple of years so i might just get back into it again this time.

.produKt, it's a charity ride with (if memory serves) proceeds from donation/raffal tickets, badge sales, whatever going to the St Johns Ambulance service.
Last time i went the was quite a large convoy of bikes.

But now i have a problem.
Go to akaroa?
or
Goto leeston, a loveley place i used to live and help out a good cause -_-
me thinks we should change the cruise from akaroa to going to leeston, or both! ^^

Sounds good!

I might try and make it, haven't been for a few years either.
Cant believe most of you dont know about it?? Was always a pretty good turnout, like some of the other fundraising runs. I guess they don't them so much any more? Xmas toy run, easter run?

[repsol]

Sounds good to me
Got some friends out leeston i could call in on too.

Sounds very official, will they be checking wof and rego's?

Not likely. But then you never know, we might go past some cop who manages to pick you out of the maybe 60 to 80 (i don't know how many, usually more than 30 i guess) bikes and pull you over to check.

You know if you are in an accident with no REG or WOF you'll not be covered by insurance and get a ticket even if not your fault. Then again you proberbly have no insurance either i guess.

If you want to ride in a large group then come along, you'll love it.
This photo is from the 2005 Cholmondeley Childerens Home Charity Run (next will be held on May 6th this year), just to give you an idea.
