    Not even looking likely for monday night at this stage.

    Broken bike sucks. I have a bike to ride, but its not quite the same cause I can't take it offroad. And that is the only ride I have a hankering for.

    You reckon a broken bikes bad, I've got abroken arse...that really sucks!

    Anywho, due to minor injuries from the tussock buster (now renamed the arse buster) I won't be riding for a few more days and the weekend is out as well. It will have to be some future date for playing in the gravel, sorry guys.

    Not sure what is wrong, something technical getting to the point of being very annoying as its been in the shop since tuesday last week.
    At least I have a demo bike to ride I guess.

    Going to NASS?

    did Chris let you ride the 690 before it had to go to the doctor then?

    Have a look in the off road section there is a thread there with some photos...absolutely awesome scenery and a great place to ride, just some bits might be a bit much for an adventure bike!

    I definitely couldn't do Sunday. I can really only get away with one night out each week - so if Iain were going to be well enough to do a gravel trip to Puhoi later in the week then I would be more keen to do that, otherwise I will definitely be on for Monday night. Lets stay in touch. (We were originally only avoiding Thursday due to the cop factor - I doubt that will be an issue on the gravel, hopefully.)

    and how did the thread manage to get a (16 March) in the title?

    That just confuses the whole matter.

    Maybe we need a new thread how about
    Auckland Ride outs, where/when?

    Surely we can get a sticky when the thread grows up.
    Any luck getting this one renamed?

    Go for it - like the Nelson and Welly threads:

    "Auckland Rideouts - where next?"

    Tis all ya need mate - clear and will help people up your way easily keep track of what your up to as you guys build a group up there!
    Just my 2c worth!
    Cheers, Dave

    No! We cannot be clones! We are Aucklanders!

    We want to be different. Like everyone else.


    I vote for "Muriwai Ride Tonight"

    Regardless of whether it is to Muriwai or not, or even if it's tonight or not.

    It sounds proactive and decisive. Wether or not it is, well that's nebulous detail.
