    It would be my first out of town ride on the Volty! Exciting!
    Yah - it will be fun. Everyone will be riding their own ride, so no pressure, no one behind pushing anyone. Well meet up at a few places along the way. I dare ya - come on.

    I'll bring my camera too so I can get some good action shots if you want. There's some motivation, a pic to put on your wall!

    LTJ, what time do you need to be up there by?

    EJ, probably Westgate would suit everyone? Feel free to come to mine for a coffee first if ya like.


    Whangarei - "The long way around" is in full effect. And one thing I love about weekday rides (apart from less cars on the road) is thinking about people working hard.... then tucking into another sweet corner!!

    No rush getting there, but as you all need to get back again to the city, how about 09:30 Fri morning. Was thinking of meeting in the city, only because its close to me and I am just around the corner from the Northern on-ramp.
    How about the petrol station on the corner of Krd and Ponsonby rd (can't remember if it is a shell, bp etc off the top of my head).

    Meet at 9am for 9:30 departure. Happy to leave it another half hour and or meet somewhere else if that suits everyone

    I'm sweet with whenever. few hours up, dick around for an hour or ride out to the heads and back. Before I crashed your party I was gonna leave early like 6-7am but am easy as.I'll come out the upper harbour bridge way. Want to meet on Oteha Valley Rd (Albany) at the gas (Mobil) station off and under the M'way then immediatly on the left? Can go onto East Coast Rd from there easy.

    ALSO, get off at Greville Rd, do 270 degrees right around that roundabout then get back on the M'way again! It's good for a laugh if you don't go to the shore much.

    I'm coming from Henderson so bottom of bridge is good for me. Is there room to pull over to the side before bridge?

    Just sent a bunch of PM's and then checked the thread. Sounds like everyones is meeting out West, so I will see you all at the Albany petrol station at 7am for 7:30 departure

    Now all we need is the weather gods to be smiling our way.

    No sweat dude, we do this kinda thing for fun, do whatever you like, see you cats there and woo hoo! We're off! I am normally up quite early and most days, even dry ones it drizzles just before the sun comes up. Air pressure change blah blah. Beware the skid demon!
