SAT 24th. SHELL WESTGATE TO PAPAROA AND ON...

[wraith]

A few of us are planning a ride north. Not sure how far but probably end up at Baylies Beach.
We are meeting at 9am on Saturday with an aim to leave by 9.30. Thats if, and its a big if, the weather isn't too bad.

As far as the route is concerned we will finalise it on the morning ,depending on numbers.

The pace won't be too quick as one of the guys is running his bike in,So all are welcome.

So whos up for a cold ride?

WE ARE NOW PLANNING TO LEAVE WESTGATE AT 9AM. SO I SUGGEST MEETING AT 8.30 TO LEAVE AT 9....

Hey mate, would love to join you guys but have got myself into a bit of a financial "jam" and won't be able to make it.

[SwanTiger]

I'm keen on this but don't know if i'll be able to make it yet.
I love that Paparoa Road.

yopu given TL a shout?? The old man might be able to get his rickety bones out of bed... I'm itching for a ride so if the weather is good i'll come out and play...

Maybe we can do that road again except not in near no light.... maybe I won't be able to keep up as good if you can see

Could be keen. Finish Uni on thursday so will definatly be in need of a cane afterwards.

Weather can't be any worse than the last time we went up north can it?*

How far north is Baylies beach?



*Note this is not a challenge to the weather gods.

could be keen chaps, weather dependent i guess, i can put up with the cold, but "cold and rain" is just to much-- so fingers crossed
