We have had some spot prizes donated by Blue Wing Honda and Suzuki NZ for riders on the 4th RideSafe 350.

Both these companies supported the earlier RideSafe 350 runs - nice to see they still supports us.

Preentries are coming in steadily and all entrants so far have been posted info (if you have not got it yet it is in the mail)

Riiders are coming from as far afield as New Plymouth (so far anway).

Entries will be accepted on the day.

Lunch will be provided near midway on the ride. As with past 350 rides - we provide the makings and you make your own filled rolls, no complaints then that you dont like cheese or lettuce or whatever.

There is a badge being made, prentrants will be assured of getting theirs on the day, on the day entries may have to wait to get one mailed out if we run out.

If you get lost, tired , or just can't be bothered anymore you can return to the finsh at any time during the day.

Remeber this is a 350 MILE event. (600km)

Good to see a few small bikes giving this a go as well. Good on you.

Thanks to our sponsers - Motohaus tyres, Blue Wing Honda, Suzuki NZ,

anyone one else who would like to join them just contact me,

Hope to see you there on the day - RideSafe one and all

Is that 350 mile each way, or 350 mile round trip? ie does 350 mile get you back more or less to where you started, or after the 350 mile do you have to ride another 350 mile that day to get home?

And are there gravel roads on this or is it sprotsbike stuff ?

it is a 350 mile ride from go to whoa.
Only gravel you will strike is if there is any roadworks.
But there are plenty of back roads you probably dont know about and will not have ridden before.

**Lee Rusty** · 6th August 2006, 09:08

it is ot just sport bike stuff - it is for anyone who wants a go - previous runs have had a few 250s and smaller, and scooters.

Can be done as a group ride if you want to go with your mates.
