Soooo..... when's the first ride then !?!

[turtleman]

Yep - I'll join the group

I only know a couple of people here, so about time I met a few more !

Great idea. It seems nobody was quite sure how to do it so since i come from bucks Beach (but currently Welly), I've started the East auckland riders Social Group for you guys. You guys have some of the best rads in the whole auckland region out whitford, Hunua, Clevedon and Maraetai to name just the close ones. The whitford pub's not bad either but not too flash for having a beer and riding home from.

Thanks Grub,Yes we have got some great roads around here.So everbody if you want to join put your name on the East Auckland Riders Social Group.Will be great to know who is from around here and who can do what and for organising the occasional group rides.

Does Manukau somehow count as East Auckland? If so I'm dead keen! I've always wished there were a meeting place around here, especially a destination/bar to get some foodage after a good hearty ride!

Hi Zeocen,yip Manukau counts welcome aboard.

[howdamnhard]

could join/tag along with the uni SMC club... we're half east aucklanders anyway, have plenty of learner training etc and you don't need to be a student

No reason why you cannot be in both.You guys seem pretty jacked up .

Norfy, Easty, Westie, we are missing a soufy....oh spose anyone south of the bombays counts aye !!

The Cock an Bull Botany is quite suitable. Usually three or five bikes outside at different times. Plenty parking, enuff judder bars to practise wheelies on entry etc.

Cock and Bull is pretty classy. Wouldn't mind meeting up there.

Probably wrong forum but I´m sure one of the mods will stick it where it belongs.See quite a few bikers out my way and thought it would be good if we could form groups/contacts of other bikers in our areas.Would be good for assiting each other,doing group rides, helping out newbies etc. Whats your thoughts?

It's a great idea.

That is how my club started.

Good luck!

Thanks for the encouragement Lone Rider.

Just remember, with great power comes great responsibility! lol



But really, I did what you may/are doing. Started a club. It is a lot of work. At times I wonder why I bother - always chasing up people, collecting phone numbers, having to bite your tongue when some knob mouths off about you starting a club/or about your club.

BUT..

Come August we have our first anniversary and are having a celebration. Going by ticket sales, there is roughly 30 people down to come and this is prepay tickets only and there is still a week left to buy them - and 90% of those people who have already bought them are members! Yes, we only started last year!

When you get going, and perhaps have people visiting down here - look us up!

Rock on EARSG
