Xmas Toy Run

[Paul in NZ]

Forgive me if this has been posted before but...

It looks like the Wellington HOG group is organising a Xmas toy run on the 2nd december. (I saw a sign on a wheelie bin in the back of a ute and scribbled down the details)

I checked with them and it's open to ALL bikes.

Check in is the Sandbar at Mana at 9am.

It's $10 per head and there will be a BBQ breakfast with all procedes going to the Salvation Army.

They will go down SHW1 and onto SHW2 to Petone and then I think he said back into town to Aotea Sq where they will have bands etc.

Bring a TOY to donate (obviously)...

Sounds like quite a blast and a flier is coming out so CHEACK THE DETAILS above 'cos I scribbled it down OK - once I have more info I will post here...

Cheers

Yep it is on Dec 2 we are meeting at Sandbar in Paremata and leaving there at 10.30am and then heading into town for a bike show etc at Queens Wharf. Its open to all bikers not just the HOG members so here is a chance for all Wellington riders and those nearby to help out a great cause by bringing a toy to donate....see you all there

Bump - come on folks - the HOG guys invited us on a poker run a while back and it was a damn good day....

I'll wheel out the Triumph - who else is keen?

[jimbo600]

Yeah I'd be keen for that. Welly HOG guys always organise a good event. Might have to go up to Akl for work though, but if not then I'm in.

Yeah, yeah. I read it. It's in my calendar. Yeesh!

I'm up for it.

Sounds cool, we'll try to come along.
My mum always said that you should try to take people up on invitations, even if you don't really want to go, otherwise they eventually stop asking! (Unless you want them to piss off and leave you alone).

Don't feel bad - I don't know you either....

Look for an ancient orange (I swear it was red on the colour chart) and white Triumph with a fat gimp in a black / blue jacket and say hi... Thats a pretty distinctive bike you have there... Should be easy.

I'm guessing it will take a fair while to register etc on the day and there will be a LOT of bikes there so if you are coming, pm me closer to the time and I'll give you my mob # so you at least know one person... (I am human - promise).

Not sure if the the loverly Vicki is coming - at this stage it's a 'probably'

You could swing by our place in Raumati South in the morning and ride down with me if you like?

Sandbar is in Mana, headed south it's on the right (seaward side) just after the Shell / Mc Donalds outfit. There is a little layby place there to turn off and park in.

[Bend-it]

I'll be heading up to Palmy that day, but might drop by and say hello at the sand bar... we'll need to see about timing...

Cheers!

[Darkman]

I'm keen for that.
