Cruiser ride this Saturday - 28 July 2007

**Toaster** · 26th July 2007, 14:49

Event location: Auckland - North Shore

Short notice ride for those interested in joining myself and another M109R rider this Saturday.

Targeted for cruiser riders and enthusiasts as well as encourage other riders keen come along to do a group ride at road legal speeds.

TIME: 0945 for 1000 (10am) departure.

START POINT: BP DAIRY FLAT SH1

Meet in the carpark north of the Burger King at the BP Petrol Station in Diary Flat off SH1 - which is south of the Silverdale off-ramp. using that northern-end of the carpark will keep the bikes well clear of the petrol station traffic.

ROUTE: Suggest north to SH17 then across Kahikatea Flat Road to SH16,

Up SH16 to Wellsford (5-10 min stop at the end of SH16 for fuel/loo/pick up other riders etc) onto SH1 over the Brynderwyns to the turn-off to Waipu,

Waipu to Mangawhai via backroad then back to SH1,

SH1 to Puhoi for a drink and disperse.

RULES: Keep the bike behind you in view and stay together as a group. If the bike behind you stops or drops off, do the same to ensure they are looked after and the back-markers keep up.

LUNCH - decide on the day - same for petrol stops, if needed.

MY NUMBER (no longer used) just in case you get lost... so I can laugh at you.

I thought about that, but had made a commitment to a morning ride. The gap between will give us all time to powder our noses.

Weather is better for the morning at this stage too, so kept it earlier in the day for that reason.

**Scouse** · 26th July 2007, 15:53

OK........

Damn and I was going to raid your make-up kit.

Can i put this ride on the party thread Cam?.. i said there would be a ride on the day and thanks for organising it for me mate.... See you's at the end of SH 16 at around 11am or soon after.....

**sade** · 26th July 2007, 18:42

Bummer..I 'm work on Sat, Sun would have been better for me.

**BigRed2007** · 26th July 2007, 18:42

I would love to come but unfortunately I havent ventured out to the motorways/ statehighways, and I dont know northshore very well.

But I am going to keep on practising and I will get there...

If someone is willing to pick me up, i.e. show me the way there and drop me back of to Mt albert road and the group doesnt mind my slowish speeds ( cause i havent been on the motorway) I dont mind tagging along.

Up to you guys.

We live way north of you so cant swing by and pick you up sorry. I had a read of your progress thread, you are doing well. Keep your eyes peeled, I will see if Maha man can organise another ride that passes by you down there. Keep up the good work!
