Waitangi Day Adventure Ride (North Range Road)

[bart]

Might have time for a quick squirt up Whariti. Get really good views of crappy windmills from up their. Weather permitting.

[merv]

OK, I've put my GPS on it and the DR is all gassed and ready to go Wednesday.

Ok so shall we meet at 10am at Caltex Woodville (which is on the Main Road to Palmerston North)
Then depending on time we will head for Masterton via some nice back country gravel roads

Cheers Scott

Yeah well I thought that was the plan - then to do North Range Road first. Bart is suggesting Wharite but that's off to the other side, I'd prefer to give it a miss and take in more of the roads like Pori to the South.

Looks like it will be me and Frodo from down here and Jim if he gets his lazy arse up. The other regulars aren't available.

Zukin, Merv, Bart & Frodo (+ BusaJim if you make it) hope you guys have a great ride on Wednesday - as Merv's alreadl explained I'll have to pass on this one. Cheers Aslan

Just had bulabil confirm he's a starter too

[bvaut]

After the north ridge road you should head out to conoor via the Makuri track. a number of ways to get there from Woddville. Then you can head back through to Makuri and Alfreton. Etc. Have a good trip.

[merv]

OK who else is a starter tomorrow? - leave 8am Shell Mana - gather a few minutes beforehand. So far its me and bulabil and we pick Frodo up at Paekak on the way through. BusaJim you going up the 'rapa or will you see us at Mana too?

I don't plan on doing Makairo track on this ride but there is one already planned for Sunday http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=66455

Crap, I'm interested but can't do tomorrow as I'm on call. Maybe next time as long as the tractor/road widener would fit down the tracks.

Yep going well there should be two two road wideners at least on this ride - see you next time.

Hey Guys

Not sure If I can make it at the moment.
I've hurt my back ( irritated an old injury ) on Sunday and I'm hoping its going
to settle down in time for the ride.
I'll meet you at Mana if I'm fit enough

Jim

[tri boy]

Should be a rather windy day up on those dem hills. Cyclone Gene is slipp'n down the east side, and the high over NZ is battl'n to hold off fronts on the west side.
Man, I'm in for a windy ride sth to the inter islder.

OK hopefully see you there, I'll just park on the left by the carwash before 8am on Mrs merv's blue DR.

[merv]

OK bulabil has called me and he's had to drop out.

Hopefully Zukin you'll still be on for this coz me and Frodo are coming and possibly BusaJim.

[bart]

I'm still up for it. Just been out in the shed wrestling with tyres. Thought I'd better put some nobs on. See you in Mudville at 10am. I might shoot up Whariti ............... if I get up early enough..................just for the hell of it.
