SHIT TO BRING

$10 - $20 for Pies
An empty stomach
$5 - $10 for drinks to wash said pies down
A suitable place to store your pie wrapers
A piece of paper to record research data (a pen would be good too...)

MORE SHIT TO READ
Basically it is just an excuse to eat pies and go for a ride, however, try to record where you buy your pies from and the price you pay for the pie. If you come across an exceptional pie, keep the wrapper and record price, shop purchased from, location/address and visable land marks near shop.

This is open to all, slow and old (even GSXR riders), basically meet at BP, leaving for Kopu, taking the back roads. Once at Kopu, go anti-clockwise and stop as you see fit while riding your own ride.

I'm not responsible for anyone, so if possible, peer up with a rider of similar capabilities / pace. That way, if you decide to go home let that person know.

We'll probably re-group in the 'of signifigance' townships and eventually end the ride back at Kopu Mobil, there is a pub across the road, as you know, so that's a good place to end a good ride and wash down the pies.

Simple really.

RAIN DATE
No body likes to eat pies in the rain. If it is raining the ride will be post-poned until the weekend after.

Holy shit!

Just make sure Gremlin rides at the back, or there'll be none by the time we get there...

**SwanTiger** · 27th July 2006, 00:21

Don't be so hard on Gremlin, he has worked hard for his beer belly and pie shaped arse.

bastards.... that be my birthday too

hmmm I might be in for the ride... my last few birthdays have all been weekdays, which normally involved.... work/uni. Couldn't care less about the pies, as swanny says, excuse for the ride, and I haven't done coro anti-clock.

**bobsmith** · 27th July 2006, 08:30

well, I'm not going to be going on the ride since I'm in Palmy but if you're in auckland and wanting best pies, I really suggest you try Bernie's pies in brownsbay. Their steak pies are phenominal.... I have been looking and looking but never found better pies.....

Note I can only speak for their steak pies since... I only eat steak pies, but they have a large selection of steak pies and they're good....

After the comments Swanny was making about your arse, you might want to make that "anti-cock".

**Kendog** · 27th July 2006, 10:53

The Coromandel Pie shop does a mean pie, smothered in tucker farker. YUMMM.

**SwanTiger** · 27th July 2006, 13:12

What are you all on about, I thought Gremlin was a girl?

Only after 7pm on weekend nights.

That pie habit needs serious coin to maintain.

Best pies are in eruobake in albany, hellishly expensive but the butter chicken pie is so good. although the last one I had did seem to skimp down on the chicken from previous pies (but still enough)
