    sweetas all are welcome.
    My current idea for the route as far as i am concerned is holeshot - milford- silverdale - helensville -muriwhai - kumeu - westgate - home. This will allow for those wishing to head south to jump on the western to go whereever they please. Im hoping the weather will be the same tomorrow, maybe a bit warmer though!!!

    I got some old school army pants that are quite good for riding, im 6ft 3 and they are a wee bit short for me to wear as normal clothes but if you are wearing riding boots you should be fine - you want me to bring them anyway???

    Na, sweet, I was thinking more about the armour than anything, I have some cordura snowboard pants (!) That I can wear over top of my jeans for extra slide protection if worst comes to worst.

    Thanks for the offer though gareth

    Sounds like there's going to be a damn good turnout. Hope the weather holds for you guys.

    Don't forget to make sure someone takes a camera, so the rest of us can can live it vicariously.

    And remember rubber side down.

    just checking if everyone is sweet for my planned route. Its not like im going to try and stop you from breaking off and going your own way, but just making sure there are no violent objections!!! Looking forward to it, will be my first organised ride. My bike is a alright up to around 120/130kph but will struggle for anything over 140, just to old i guess, oh well, you guys on the big toys will have to restrain yourself!!! Im sure MR can find self control there somewhere

    Im keen on some stickers too Spankme, was it $4 a sheet?

    If it's ok I might tag along til the end of beach road (I can't wait until the bikes run in, it pains me when 5000rpm in top gear is 60kph)

    thats cool, from memory i think east coast road is 50km zone all the up to albany anyway, whereever you feel the new bike can handle.
    For the GSX that sounds underpowered, my GF (the first of suzuki's four stroke four cylinder 250cc bikes) does 70km in 6th gear at about 5-6k.
    The more the merrier!!!
