Yep, I went there today and there was a Evangelical Church meeting inside, lots of singing and holding hands up high for the glory of the Lord. Praise His name!
But the info centre across the road put me right for the 26th.

It doesn't take much changing does it for it to be typical of any Sunday afternoon at the top of the Takas ...

Yep, I went there today and there was a Kiwi Bikers meeting, lots of singing and waving hands up high for the glory of the Bike.

Yes - you all better come and support the lads or we will come 'round and drip oil on your driveways and tell 14 hour tales of life back in the day....

Any plans for an Auckland one?

**Paul in NZ** · 29th April 2007, 19:01

Dunno - you coulds ask the akl classic club. This is a local club effort and I can promise some cool and rare old bikes (some genuinely interesting bikes). Plus its for a charity....

I'll be on duty....

**jonbuoy** · 29th April 2007, 19:06

Would like to go down - I just took a couple of days off work too dammit. I could have spent some money there.

**david.visser** · 29th April 2007, 19:38

I will be sure to be there - sounds like it will be great

**Nasty** · 30th April 2007, 14:25

Sounds like fun to me .. I should think that I could convince the grub is a good waste of an afternoon .. or he could mow the lawns

How old does a bike have to be to be a classic?

A vehicle over 25 years old. Classics are made between 25 and 50 years ago. Older than that and they're "antique"
My GN250 will qualify in just four more years!

**riffer** · 30th April 2007, 20:52

30 years innit?

The riffer clan will be there.

The club rules are very clear on this point....

1980 or earlier OR anything you feel brave enough to turn up on......

Jim2 will attest that they are a very accomodating and welcoming lot, not at all sniffy and you should see some very cool bikes (no - mine won't be there - not good enough)
