How about a "Rides and fun places to go" thread??

Spank

How about starting a thread for rides and fun places to go? Would make for a change rather than having to bung stuff under "general ravings" or similar...

Others' thoughts??

Shhh, beware the fun police!

Hitcher, you'll be getting a visit from the lads shortly. How could you even suggest such a thing?

**FzerozeroT** · 14th June 2004, 12:34

Especially for peole that didn't join last millenium and can't be bothered trawling threads.

One requirement may be a map attachment though. (or a link to wises.co.nz)

Could it be made into a 'sticky'.

I'd love to know a few of the rides you guys & gals go on. Excellent idea!

**riffer** · 14th June 2004, 13:54

Great idea.

You could include some important info like length and average time of ride at speed limit, experience level required, potential hazards, and important scenery/places of interest.

And then you could add a cool anecdote about the trip along the way too..

great idea especially for those of us who can maybee meet a ride halfway.
itll mean we can wait for you guys to get to a point on the ride and join up.

Pretty much only useful if people are going to do full ride reports, but it would help me out immensely instead of doing the same rides over and over until someone suggests sommink else.

Good idea

One casts one's bread upon the waters and waits for the system administrator ducks to take heed... Alas, there must have been more exciting bread floating by... Depsite an overwhelming poll result too!

Spankme, you blind??

Pat Benatar: "You're a real tough cookie with a long history
Of breaking people's hearts like the one in me..."
"...Put up your dukes, come on let's do it,
Hit me with your pet shark
Why don't you hit me with your pet shark
Hit me with your pet shark, fire away!"

**FROSTY:Me** · 10th August 2004, 12:53

having a route map of a proposed /planned ride would be pretty cool. again mainly so people who want to join up can do so later

I do know the song well, I just dont see how people could possibly interpret it that way....

Its as bad as "My goat knows the bowling score"

More commonly sung as "Micheal row the boat ashore"
