TOTNR (the other Wellington Thursday night ride) 17 Feb

**Hitcher** · 15th February 2005, 17:37

Weather permitting, the "other" lot may be keen to ride out one more time?

Rendezvous at the Petone wharf again from 6:30pm ready to ride by 7:00pm?

Suggestions -- top of the Takas; Makara loop; Paekak hill summit and esplanade sunset excursion...

Meet up with the riverbank carpark contingent prior to fine dining and suitably reflective discourse?

You know what!!?
I may just have to join you this week!
May bring a few friends to!

Finish 18:30, if I can make Wgtn CBD to Petone Wharf in 30 mins, through hordes of dimwited cagers milling around in "rush" hour traffic, then I shall be there. If you could post a route, a confirmed one, before then, I can meet up at whichever point I can make.

Shouldn't be problem though. Takas sound good, hmm Martinborough too far? Caffeine-downers at sunset?

**Blakamin** · 15th February 2005, 18:19

working, but could meet at Pie-Cock if I have a rough time.....

Want me to meet you in Welly CBD around 18:30, and we ride out together?

*EDIT* May be a little earlier, but, may also be not at all. I don't know what time I finish, until about 30mins before hand

You just head out on SH1, through the terrace tunnel, go straight past the servo on the left, and take the turnoff that says petone. Stay in right lane, through roundabout towards the sea and the wharf is just on your right.

Hmmm, better make my own way out there incase you have to bail. Thanks for the dircections!

Ok here's a quick thread hijack (but it's related!) .....
After meeting up at the carpark a few of us thought it would be cool to pop around to the beach and have a bonfire. So we'll make it 9.30, at the very end of that main road that goes along the coast past Seaview and Eastbourne etc. Nice bit of beach there and it's away from 'civilisation'. I know it's a bit late on a weeknight for you early morning working sorts, but feel free to pop around just for a little while if you want

If the weather's crap it's cancelled.

For those in the CBD there are a few of us meeting at Harvey Norman on Tory St at 6pm to ride out to Petone Wharf. PM me if you want to meet us so you dont get left behind!

**StoneChucker** · 17th February 2005, 11:30

I'm going to TRY meet you guys there at 6pm (Harvey Norman). Don't wait for me though (obviously don't leave till 6pm if you can help it). Otherwise I'll hopefully see you all at the wharf, if I get out on time.
