TCSMR Sunday mornings - Autumn/Winter 2007

Hmmm ... yes. Trying to figure out how I might be able to fit in a test-ride on a tardme bike out west (from us out east) without mum thinking I came to see the bike and not her

"... why don't we go for a nice drive out to Waitakere mum? ..."

Looks like I'm on an unlucky strike. This weekend my bike is in the shop getting fixed so I can't make it again. I was really hoping to make it and meet the rest of you. I just hope it will be done by the end of next week.

Oh, well...

next time

This could be a common complaint. Just as well there is the "Ride for Hope" on Saturday. (If that finishs too early we could always go back up to Rieki for a cuppa and a scone....?)

**Nasty** · 12th May 2007, 21:04

I was under the impression that 10 am was for the duck pond. What has been decided in the end? 10 am at duck pond or at the Rimutex?

Just to let you guys know the weather for the Rapa... Blue Sky everywhere!!! Going to be a cracker day.

Point taken .. but this week no one had said anything so I said the Rimutex .. opps ... how about now it is said we meet there and ... next week we remember that it is 10 am duck pond going forward.

When we ran the Poll to select a time, I mindlessly said Rimutex ... for no particualr reason other than that's where we always seemed to start on a Sunday. A couple of people suggested th Duck Pond as being more central for going places other than the Takas.

At this stage it's a developing concept so we get to let it evolve how we want it.

I believe, in answer to your question, it is Rimutex by default at the moment but if someone has a cool idea for a ride destination which doesn't involve Rimutex, most people will go with that. I guess the idea is that we don't put too much mental strain on ourselves so early on a Sunday before we've had caffine and brunch

You forgot that there is petrol there without having another stop. Organising a start anywhere other than a petrol station, particularly in the weekend, means you'll be waiting at Rimutex (or some other distilled petroleum spirits emporium) while a good third of the group has an, "Oh yeah, petrol", moment.

I can't remember what I've forgotten, but at the moment I think I'll be allowed out this Sunday...
(The 'rapa is looking like the place to be.)

**Nasty** · 17th May 2007, 11:24

Grub and Nasty are out this week ... taking a stroll to Taupo - Tauranga - etc get new bike .. taken part in the VMCC series .. then come home.

**Lissa** · 17th May 2007, 11:38

The rapa people might be there.. have to see what they want to do. 10am rimutex I am assuming.

Edit/ knowing me I will be at the top of the Takas waiting anyway.
