    You talking about Rutherford Road turn off. Yep me and brooke missed it!!! But only just!!

    I agree Saturday night would be better especially for those coming from further away and planning to stay the night. Then maybe we make a big day of it and do the mini coro run Mister Koz is looking at or the kauiua (or whatever) run JMK (I think) posted a while back. C&B sounds good even though I can get a jug at the Rapa for the same price as a pint there. (bikers must be rich???). Rule out Dec 13 as Hotel is full and cannot do accom/bfst special rate

    cheers and beers to all

    Kyrssie Kyrssie kryssie kryssie kryssie (sorry just doing my lines to remember the crazy way you spell your name. If it's wrong...bite me!) haha

    And for those that are saying they're terrible with names. Here something geeky I learnt at a conference once. Your crap because you say your crap. Just like saying you can never go to sleep before 11pm. You tell yourself that so many times your sub-conscisious things it's true.

    I used to be bad with names now I'm getting better (see? ) I just don't like saying them in case I get them wrong and call someone Snot when clearly there name is Goat I'm still working on this part though. It's kinda scary how it works.

    I'm also currently working on "I am a confident and god-like rider" and also "snot green is no match for blood red". Apparently, I keep hearing a laughing sound in my head everytime I mention them


    Hey its all good its actually Krystin but I wont confuse you all further :P I restrain myself from the biting tho lol

    Its true what you say, its like in The Secret - the laws of attraction. If you think it, it will happen.

    Saturday night would work better for us too and we would stay in town

    Oh and the laughing sounds in your head "snot green is no match for blood red" are you sure you didnt say it out loud and its really just MrSnot green laughing???

    Heres something green......

    hehe
    I didnt slap you....I high-fived you in the face

    Thanks Guys. I always try to behave. Thanks Brooke for the ride up the motorway. I wan't looking at your bum the whole time, Seeing how that Ninja sat on the road.

    I had a look at a road map yesterday and planned out 3 new possible trips that can be arranged. I kepted them all to under 350-400km. Will bring them along this week. Sunday looking ok weather wise, just cloudy.

    Well bugger you then, I won't try and remember your name. You shall be know from now on as The What, you there, hey, k, or just a general oi.

    Anyway, just to summarise. This weekend we have the "oto" loop and next weekend (29th-30th) there is a preference for the out of towners to do the drinks thing on the Saturday so we can stay before a ride. And the ride on the 30th looking like it could be a long one (which I think is a good idea).

    ???

    Did I get that right? So what say you townies? Work for you guys as well?

    Krystin, Why are you chatting on this site, when you are at your course.

    Its true what you say, its like in The Secret - the laws of attraction. If you think it, it will happen. Im thinking of bacon and eggs for breakfast but i dont see the maid in the kitchen yet.

    Got to do some work today and see about buying some gear today and going to Speed Tect to get a few adjustments.

    Most likely see you all on Friday or Saturday night. Krystin will keep me updated.

    A summary would be good. I have been reading through trying to figure out what the hell is going on. I might have to talk to Koz to figure it out.

    Drinks some night at the cock and bull is it? Is it dinner too? Maybe if we have enough we can get some kind of fixed price menu or sommat like that?
    For those of us with kids we may need as much warning as possible to arrange babysitters etc.

    Might be easier if I actually turn up to one of the rides LOL

    Sad to say I will not be along for this coming weekend's ride....have a training session in the middle of the day.....(biggritbuggritbuggrit).
    That said, I checked out the deviation from 31 through Turitea Road and Honikiwi Road this morning - earlyish....nice road, windy, tight, a little uneven and quite narrow in parts - also wet as and bloody freezing this morning....great view from on high in Honikiwi Road just before you descend into Otorohanga......
    There is also a mob of young and stupid cattle grazing the long acre behind a single strand electric fence not far into this loop - chances are they will have been moved by Sunday but you never know, so heads up on that one...even my solitary bike merely pootling along scared shit out of them this morning.......wouldn't do to stampede them into following riders....and the cocky prolly wouldn't be nice about it either...

    Have fun.

    Aw man, you will be missed.


    SO after all that i am lost and i am not sure who's doing what and where we are going and who decided or committed to continuing that decision and what that decision means let alone where the decision came from.

    In my head (which is a very busy place) we are sticking to the initial plan with the exception of going through flagstaff and horsham downs road to river road to ngaruawahia so we can avoid sh1 & roadworks, paddy also mentioned changes at the other end can we have a volunteer to map or write out the new path?

    If people interested in the Meal can PM me with numbers I will see what we can arrange.

    As it is a Saturday night they have live bands, I think booking will be a mighty good idea. With decent numbers we might even be a 'private function'
