    Reido, open road speed will be a bit faster than the learner ride pace, as can push the speed a little as riding in a group, but im also not interested in doing speeds where i can loose my licence or get fines. obviously it does depend on how everyone in the group is feeling, but we will be moving along at a decent pace as have a fair distance to cover.
    i don't really want to put a speed on it, as it depends on what the day is like, how many bikes, etc

    does that answer your question in a very gobble-de-goop way? sorry shouldn't have tried to answer after getting back from a ride, when should be in bed!

    god i was tired and incoherent at 12:30, and then you go and put it that simply at 2am! how did you make it to work on time this morning?

    yes, on open road it will be a comfortable pace where you will be able to take in the scenery a little. However we do have a fair distance to travel and so it will not be a total cruize and for anyone just starting out on open road riding this is not a recommended ride for you.

    but from who has shown an interest so far, i don't believe we will have any issues


    Toto, how do i do a register thing again?

    click on calander up the top of the page.

    then find the "To enter an event, first select the appropriate calendar" and choose on road events (its at the top of the page again)

    then scroll down to find "add ranged event"

    then enter the details, provide a link in it to this thread so its EZ for people to find
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    I believe i have not set up a calendar event for this ride, so you can now register to say you will be attending. I do need to know numbers that are going to attend, as have some sleeping space at our bach, but in event there are more required, I need to book the accommodation i have found, which will only cost $10 each a night. So get in touch with me relating accommodation. Unless you want to get your own accommodation, and thats fine too of course

    also, change of meeting place... now meeting at Papakura BP autobarn, just off motorway (as Uni is too busy with roadworks at the moment)
    so meeting at 7:45 for briefing and leaving at 8am


    hope to see you all there!

    count me in on that ride.

    you'll probably have to look for the girl asleep on the ground as i finish work at 4 am, so only way to get sleep and be there on time is to sleep there.
