Weds 3rd Dec - Uncle B's Anniversary, let's get a good turnout!

**Str8 Jacket** · 2nd December 2008, 16:45

Alrighty guy's. Firstly, sorry for starting a new thread. This Weds is the 2nd anniversary of Uncle B's death. Im coming along as a pilliom.
I reckon that it would be awesome to have a great turn out for this Wednesday nights ride and Im happy to organise a lead rider and a tail end charlie for the ride.
I thought that we could please everyone by having the lead riders take off first then the organised group 2nd. We will have designated stop points for the organised riders and just meet the first group there if they prefer. The organised group will at no stage go any faster than the posted speed limit, not negotiable.

I was thinking somewhere maybe not to far away and could organise ahead to have the cafe/pub expecting a certain amount of numbers.

Whaddya guy's reckon? Im happy if you just wanna do the same old but I would love to be able to honour Uncle B and make him proud.

I want to be in, but will depend on what time I can get away from work. If somewhere is arranged to stop for munchies and drinks then I may be able to meet there a bit later.

if your after close how about the sand bar in plimmerton?

**Kendog** · 2nd December 2008, 18:28

I will try to make this as well.

**Skunk** · 2nd December 2008, 18:35

Two more here that are keen (depending on work).

**Str8 Jacket** · 2nd December 2008, 18:45

Well, if no one minds then maybe we could arrange a pub in plimmerton or maybe even paraparam (more in the middle) to meet at and then those that cant make the ride could meet us there?....

**Skunk** · 2nd December 2008, 18:51

Mate! Any idea is a goodie...

**Str8 Jacket** · 2nd December 2008, 18:52

There's one in the mall beside cobbnco who's a rider and puts on a few plates of chips for a feed as well ! Selwyn has his number i think !
Someone will remember the name of it i'm sure ! Though it could get a little crowded out in the garden bar if there are big numbers lol

Pegs are down for LooseBruce, DSS3 and Uncle Bruce.

Ride safe

Sels knows the one he went to it a couple of weeks ago .. out the back of the old cobb and co .. look in the wednesday night thread ...

Will ride pegs down, but unable to do the ride due to work

Righto. Im gonna turn up tomorrow night and suggest the pub in Paraparam. I will text the likes of Trudes and Skunk if they do not turn up and let them know where we are headed.
As I have not been on this ride in over a year I cannot just barge in but in memory of Bruce, I am gonna offer the organised ride to those who want it for wherever we go. Me and Malcolm (I am pillion) will either go tail end charlie or lead.

Its called Gordy's Bar and Gordy himself is a biker. Its attached to the back of the Cobb and Co restuarant on the main highway at Paraparaumu. Access thru the Coastlands Mall carpark. Plenty of bike parking around the back. Gordy has offered discounts to KBers so I reckon its a good venue. The TCWNR went there a few weeks back and most seemed to like it.
