Sat 13 October, Wellington roadtrip

[slydesigns]

We need to head to Wellington to pick up one of Mellissa's new NC30's so, as Cowboyz suggested, its road trip time. Guess we all meet up in Palmy somewhere then head off to wellington via and way you want (open to suggestions), pick her bike up, then head (again) anywhere you want. One issue will be pillioning her down to wellington though...

Rough plan, open to tweaking:
Palmy crowd meet at BP Linton at 8.45am, leaving at 9am
Ride to Levin via Shannon, fuel stop if needed at the Levin BP
Ride to paekaks - Haywards Hill - Hutt Motorway - Lower Hutt City.
Me, Mellissa and who ever peel off to collect the NC30 from somewhere in the city while everyone else grabs fuel and food somewhere in the city thats easy to find and get in and out of. Perhaps meet back up at the River Bank Carpark (its the one on the right as you cross Melling Bridge over the Hutt river and into Central Lower Hutt). If you get lost every boyracer and most cops know where it is... lol, think "The Fast & The Furious" style mass park ups on a Thursday night - 250+ cars!!! Empty during the day on a weekend though so a good easy to find place to regroup.
Meet back up, then head back via either Greys bay, or Paekak hill or the evil Akatawara rd.
Then home. BBQ, drinks and war stories

Changes?

Sounds like a plan .. can either meet in shannon or Levin .. ohh wot part of welly & does paecock hill fit into the plans

[slydesigns]

think its upperhutt and open to any routes. Paekak is now speed restricted to 70kph so its be a cruise through there, as since lowering th speed limit, a ton more cyclists are using it.

get everyone from ashusrt and palmy to meet at BP linton and those at shannon meet at the mobile in shannon and head to upperhutt via piakok hill/haywards

Looks like I'm going to have to learn how to carry someone on the back quick smart then.

could be worth a look. Could give melissa a pillion on one of the bigger bikes if you are not keen on pillioning on the 400.

hmm well it helps that melissa already rides methinks & if the hill is only 70ks will not be a fast trip through there anyhow .. so all sweet

absoutely because we never ever ever break the speed limit.
