    Question Anyone keen for a CORO This FRIDAY 31st OCT ?

    As per thread name. Seeing that weather is supposed to be nice , I'm keen to do a CORO if I got a company of at least 2-3 people.

    Any takers ?

    RIDE IS ON


    EDIT - Ride details: FRIDAY 31st OCT

    Some of us North Shore boys are meeting at BP Onewa Road at 8:45 and leaving at 9:00am

    Going to fuel up at BP Autobahn at about 9:30 - 9:45 and we shooting at 10:00am. Anyone keen can meet us there.

    Planning to be in Kopu by 11:00 - 11:30max. So if anyone outside of Auckland wants to meet us there, you can wait for us at the Mobil Petrol Station at Kopu from 11am.


    Loop Clockwise as per usual. Lunch at yummy tavern at Coroglen. Plan is to do the whole loop and even stop at the gold mine for a look.

    I do not recommend the loop for super novice riders i.e. less than 6 months constant riding experience. apart from that all welcome.

    I'm going on the baby hornet, ride will be kept at legal speeds but not slow as a nana in the corners. In saying that , Anyone is wellcome to ride how they like (i'm not your mummy) and also have no problem waiting for people on the turns

    Weather forcast is looking quite sweet, but ride is weather dependent after all. Final Confirmation of ride going ahead is going to be in this first post by 8:00am

    My thoughts exactly.

    And surely you have some exams to study for as well, or you're some super genius that can cram in a semesters work in one night. Wish i could do that.

    Ooooh a Coro loop, eh? Sounds like an appropriate "last ride" on the Zeal before chucking it on Trademe...
    Motorcycling is like life - it's about the journey, not the destination.
