    CC Challenge

    alright guys the time has come!

    we are a week away from the CC Challenge and im excited! so for all of you out there here is a re-cap



    WHAT: CC Challenge

    WHY: To raise funds to be donated to the running of this site and a donation to Outward Bound, also as a personal challenge THIS IS NOT A RACE

    WHERE: Auckland to the Cape

    WHEN: Friday 6th June 2008 due to be back in Auckland on Sunday 8th June 2008

    MEET POINT: The bottom carpark (next to the outlet stores) at Westgate shopping center. We will be meeting at 6am SHARP, with a brief before we DEPART at 7am. we dont need typical late bikers.

    ENTRY CRITERIA: This is open to anyone who meets the following criteria.
    Bike must cost no more than $1000, have a current warrant and reg (or be completely unsuitable to the journey at hand). Your bike MUST be ROAD LEGAL
    The bike must have less than 200cc or a flat out top speed of less than 120.
    The bike must not be capable of cruising at 100.
    If you are unsure if your bike meets the criteria feel free to PM one of the organizers to verify, either BigDog or myself, it will not be discussed in the thread until a ruling has been provided please PM one of us if you are unsure.

    ROUTE PLAN: At this stage Ixion's route seems a suitable one, but any suggestions are welcome. a map will be attached once the route has been marked out and finalized so watch for that.

    RISKS: As you are all aware this is ENTRY AT YOUR OWN RISK we will be on open roads in all weather conditions, you are responsible for your own safety. ALL RIDERS MUST HAVE the appropriate clothing for the ride and be wearing a HI-VIS vest, this is for your safety. As we are riding in a group there shouldnt be to many issues out there with traffic.
    If you have first aid certification please let me know.
    also it is a recommendation to carry a first aid kit and a puncture repair kit as we will be on gravel roads.

    COST: There will be an entry cost to this event this is yet to be decided on the amount and all funds go into the kitty to be donated, also at this stage we anticipate some costs for food (beers and BBQ) and accommodation for both nights or if there is a friendly biker out there that doesnt mind letting us sleep on your lawn or paddock for a night drop me a line.

    SWEEP VAN/TRUCK: We need a volunteer/s to drive behind as a safety car and a sweep vehicle. WE CAN NOT RIDE UNLESS WE HAVE ONE this is also for safety reasons. So drop me a PM if you can provide your service.


    what i need now is a yes no answer only if you are attending the ride as i have noticed you guys suck on signing up on my calendar link!

    also final costs are $100 entry this includes accomidation and food only this is to be paid to me either before or on the day of the ride. i know its short notice but PM me if you have a problem paying and we xan sort something out im sure.

    i still need a sweep/fuel truck to come along so if you can be there PM me now!

    any other questions just ask ill do my best to answer you ASAP

    cheers guys may this event be fun safe and successful!

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
