ATNR Akl Thurs NIGHT RIDE & Drinks 1st June @ 6.30pm
So it's official.......... this Thursdays' night ride will be the first ride of the winter season! (Is that good?
) Just a couple of things to point out this week......
1. So we have had physical proof that the boys in blue are out there(both Speed Cameras and roving patrols) so we better be careful and think twice about what speed you travel at.
2. Please listen to the directions at the briefing, (even the regular riders!!) we lost half our group at the first turn-off last week. If we can stay as a group, I dont get to freakout wondering where everyone is. Lets use the second-man system and stick to it.
3. In the close future, I will not be able to take rides on Thursday so I need to hear what people think about alternate days. Who would perfer a Weds and who would find Friday night better? Vote on the Poll
What: A ride up north in da dark finishing with a cold one
When: Thursday night after work on the first day of winter
Where: Shell WESTGATE (end of the North Western Motorway)
Why: To get your fix for the mid-week blues
Time: Meeting there from 6.30pm departing @ 7pm
Pace: Open to all (As long as you can ride at least 100kph - not to say that we ride that speed all the time in the dark)
I'm doin the rides not for so much the riding itself (very limited with time and what you can do with it) but the social get-together at the Speights Ale House (Oteha Valley Road, Albany) afterwards. So if you can't make the ride, try and make the pub and meet fellow Kbers! The food is fine and a huge variety of beers to choose from. We are there from 8pm onwards.
The route will be discussed on the night. For those worried about distance/time the ride will last for approx 1hr - 1half and is 70kms long. We start at Westgate and finish up at Albany.
- Remember I dont want to see anyone turn up with a tinted/irridium visor on! Any chance to lessen the risks we take in our riding the better! (If you dont have a clear visor, may I suggest buying/borrowing a pair of clear saftey glasses and keep ya tint visor up....)
- Darkness = Slower speeds (self explained...)
This ride is WEATHER PERMITTING - I will post up in the thread if it is postponed due to weather. I will decide on the day and post after 5pm.
Disclaimer: You participate on this ride at your own risk. I will not be held accountable for anyones actions, to/from and during the ride.. Anyone who is caught endangering others by their actions will be asked to leave the ride and may be refused entry to forthcoming rides! (As we have had seen in the past) I will not be responsible for people ending up at Wellsford due to not listening to instructions nor the pointer system failing..........
