    The biggest Wellington Club ride of the year, Feb 27th

    On Febuary the 27th, the Wellington Harley Owners Group is having a poker run. "Who cares?" you ask?

    The difference with this run (and I've never heard of it before) is that all motorcyclists are welcome!

    If you've never done a Poker Run before, you're missing out. Huge fun, I promise.

    It costs $10 per hand and this includes a BBQ lunch after the event. Pillions are also expected to buy a hand.

    There's $2500 worth of prizes to be won for best/worst hands and spot prizes along the way. The theme (if you want to dress up) is rags to riches.

    Meeting point is Wellington Motorcycles, 12 Kent Tce at 9:30am, Sunday the 27th of Feb.

    I wanna see Kent Tce lined with bikes. I'll be riding my Suzuki and wearing my Kiwibiker T-shirt with pride so let's make this an awesome event.

    Jimbo can vouch for how well run these HOG events are and,

    ALL BIKES WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED!

    edit: A poker run is a predetermined but secret route with various checkpoints, at each of which you receive another card for your "hand". At each checkpoint you'll receive a clue as to the location of the next. It's not a race, just a chance to have a good time with a heap of other bikers. End of the day, best hand wins.

    I'll be in. I should have a F--king bike by then.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Perhaps an explanation of what a poker run is, where is it going, what do you do etc might be off benefit to newer members.....?

    Ahhh yes, good point. Sorry, I'm a bit tetchy.
