I will try to be there and make a donation if possible but wont be riding as I don't have full gear (need proper pants and boots) and still a virgin to group riding.

I can lend you some gear if that is what is holding you up. pm me. riding in *this* group will be a great experience for you and you will certainly not regret doing it.

I can ride without pants (I'd just wear some thermals underneath the jeans) it's just I don't want to go riding in the rain if the weather is going to be shit.

If it looks to be a good day I'd definatly come out.

I just talked to our local DJ about the weather. He has Ken Ring of www.predictweather.co.nz on his show every Wednesday morning. He is going to do a prediction for us all for June 28th on the show on Wednesday. Seems though up here in the north we will have rain threatening, and that is likely to be the story all over the country on the day. Stay tuned will let you all know on Wednesday. Fingers crossed eh?

I am wanting a few TEC ... I am going to be one of them til the re-group on summerhill drive, keep an eye out for the meeting approx 14 june where finer details will be sorted with those keen to help me pull this together ..

on the 14th I will be riding the route again with Lance & having a meeting at the end .. lance is riding this route on the 7th with those keen to ride it & have a look at potential requirements

Yeah me too (TEC in mean) but I will RIC on our ride, guess I cant be both on the same day?....

**oscarnz** · 26th May 2008, 18:12

I am happy to be TEC as well, unless you have me down for another job honey.

**cowboyz** · 26th May 2008, 18:29

why dont we have a raffle for $10 a ticket and the winner can be TEC

**yod** · 26th May 2008, 18:39

wouldnt it make sense for those who are sitting on corners to show the way to become TEC once the previous TEC comes through?

I assumed that's what I would be doing

either way mrs yod and I are happy to do either/both

cheers Jonno .. yeah had that thought as well and in two minds ..Lance & I had a chat about it several weeks ago & hopefully when we have the meeting we can delegate corners prior .. if we allow those ppl the chance to "catch" up to the leader will that make others in the pack try to keep up ?

and also thought if the experienced guys are at the back that will prob have a bit of pace on anyway as the way it spreads out ..

had thoughts about having the 250 riders in behind the leader where the pace will be slower than the rear ..

thoughts ppls ?????
