250 coro loop ride

**The Pastor** · 21st February 2008, 12:11

Time for a nice 250 ride. This time we are going to stop at coroglen for burgers, because the $6 scallop buger is shit hot yeah?!

We will meet at kopu at 10 for a 10.30 departure, because 9 is too early and I like to eat my 4 weatbix in the morning!

Event will run like most 250 rides. It will be learner friendly. It will run on time and it will be organised.

We will use a pointer system, the leader will point to who ever is 2nd. The person who the leader points to MUST stop and wait until the last person (i.e., TEC) passes, They must then get in front of the TEC. This keeps on repeating. it keeps the ride fluid and no stops.

The stops will be minimal. Gas stations and Lunch only.
First stop will be kopu.
Second will be Whitianga (gas only short stop!)
Third will be coroglen (lunch, long stop)
Fourth will be Waihi (gas and group split)

From waihi, we will decide on where to go, either go back to kopu via whangamata (i.e., go back the way we came) or go back to kopu via paeroa (short, straight and boringish).

We will not be stopping at the lookout to take photos, you may stop on ur own to take up photos, but please try to stay in front of the TEC.

We will have a TEC, A TEC is vital to keep the ride flowing nicely. I'd prefer it if someone volunteered - its an easy, but important job. All you have to do is make sure you are the last person on the ride. If you see anyone pulled over, stop and check that they are ok. I will give everyone who comes on the ride my cell number, and i'll need the TEC's number. In the event of a bin, first make sure the person is OK, then call any required ambo's etc then TXT (don't call as i cant answer when riding) me to let me know. I will call back when I get the TXT.

This is a 250 ride. Bigger bikes are welcome to keep me company, but please don't ride too fast in front of new riders and it might encourage them to "keep up" and bin.

Depending on numbers i'll call the coroglen burger joint and let them know a day or two in advance, so that hopefully they will be prepared and we don't have to wait so long for lunch.

Sorry for being a wank, but i like the rides to be like me - smoove.

I can be TEC too if someone wanna change at some point or I can be TEC in the beginning and later someone can take over.

so how was your day RM??? get up, have 4 weetbix (maybe only 3) organise a ride at mid-day. Decide you practice for a ride a couple of weeks away, and.........bin it. "Smoove" haha

nah, hope your all good though. if it wasnt too bad a bin, you could fix her up in time and retake the helm.
