    Saturday March 3rd ride

    Right, it's been a long time that some sort of ride was organised out of South Auckland on a weekend, so this Saturday I'm looking at a shortish ride at a moderate pace.

    The details of the ride will be available at the meeting point for obvious reasons but we will meet at the Autobahn on the left after the Papakura motorway exit and before the Drury turnoff. Will meet at 10.30am and depart at 11.00am sharp so there is no excuse for being late if you like your sleep in

    I have ridden the route we will be taking two weeks ago and there is a good mix of roads. The ride will be around 160-200kms and I expect will be over in around 3 hours depending on how long the lunch stop is, which of course depends on turnout.

    Lunch will be at Kaiuau fush and chup shop.

    This will not be a strict organised ride but a chance to mix and mingle with fellow KB'ers without taking up your whole day. Have fun, ride carefully and as mentioned the route will be discussed so that people will know where to go. Please ride within your own comfort zone and if you feel like a blast, then feel free to go for it and just wait at the next intersection if you are not sure where to go. If anyone does happen to get lost, you will know that we are meeting at the Kaiaua greasy shop and if worst comes to worst, go there and you will be ok.

    Those keen, it will be weather permitting which at this stage is looking pretty good

    No worries mate. There will be new roads in the mix too as we head out South a bit before heading back to the greasy shop

    Well I was keen, then luckily remembered I have a wedding on. Will have to make it to the next one.
    Can just imagine the newly wed's looks on explaining how I went off riding and forgot about the wedding. Lucky indeed or unlucky.

    Also the reason for the late start. If you're still feeling bad by 11 than you would still be way over the limit

    No worries Leong, maybe next time.

    Hey, not wishing to cause any offence here but what's blue, covered in crumbs and lies in the gutter?
