hey dont discriminate against the big bikes, as long as you stick to 70kms you're welcome right?

hmmm School's out...and there's a ride...W00ters! I be there fer shizzle! Pardon the astonishingly drop in grammatical particulars, and don't go there with the schlepping of slang/idiom/colloquial saying!

So where will I be? Riding!

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to the 'Tron we go!
Somewhere in the middle, neat to meet -
New learner riders, others older in the saddle
Makes no matter, all riding two wheels - so it's sweet!
Kick some tyres, drool over rides, chow down grub,
Then it's time to turn around,
And plan the next twofiddy outing club!

No i thought you rode a Cruiser? you'll strugle to even get going

But any who ......... McJim needs some one in the suburb of Hamilton to organise the yokles at that end, as the route is never made public Mav or McJim will PM the organiser our destination. We are not actually planning on going into Hamilton as we have heard its one of the roughest suburbs of auckland

Not sure if my bike will be on this ride yet though..

Send me a PM if your keen and we can get the ball rolling, (as long as MCjim is comfortable with this arrangement.)

Hi there, thanks for the offers of support for this event - I think there's enough interest to make this a goer. The run is called a 250 run so that newer riders don't feel too daunted to turn up. We regularly have 600s 750s and Thou's turn up on the Auckland run - sometimes people want to ride at a scenic pace and are welcome to join us regardless of engine capacity

Reading the thread you seem to have a meeting point all organised so I'll PM you the destination and you guys can decide your route.

I've forgotten the name of the place we're going to again so I'll have to do it from home tonight coz that's where I wrote it down!

Cheers.

This thread is started to see if there would be any interest from the Hamilton end - we would also need someone with some experience to agree to organise learner and less experienced riders and accompany them to somewhere halfway between Auckland and Hamilton.

We already have a route and destination if there is no interest but if there are people from Hamilton keen to meet up and get some good kilometres under their wheels simply post in here and I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks.

im keen, pm me closer to the date.
hope you dont mind my noob skills.
