Laxed out rides

[crazyhorse]

I have seen allot of new riders on 250's and other riders who aren't so keen on racing or trying to keep up with the super sports looking for some organised rides around hamilton.

I am on a zx6rr but i am looking to enjoy a relaxed ride rather than race anything.

Was thinking of getting a group started for a ride or 2 a week when people are keen.

Weather pending (http://metvuw.com/forecast/forecast....i&noofdays=all) i would like to organise a ride for a couple of hours on sunday.

I am thinking somewhere in the middle of 11am to 3pm starting at the garden centre in kahikatea drive with a coffee, will be on everyone to decide where to go but i was thinking raynes road - mystery creek - cambridge - morrinsville and hadn't thought any further

Anyways, drop a message in here if you are interested.

Just because the others may wish to ride fast - does not mean that you have to keep up with them or cannot ride with them. If you all agree to end at a certain place, then perhaps they could have two routes planned, one for the bigger and faster bikes and they take a longer route, and one for the riders who are either learning or wish to cruise to the destination - often a shorter route. We have done this and all met up at the planned stop. Means there is no pressure on either group and everyone gets to enjoy the ride.

The offical base is 90cm. On the trails youd be getting that, if you go for a walk up the edges it gets less naturally. The field was Mt. Dobson, one of the 20odd skifields down here. Its about 60kms inland from Timaru. I dunno where broken river is

You are so unlearned http://www.brokenriver.co.nz/. Apparently one of the best for powder. I reckon there's more than 30 fields if you include the clubbies. There's a crap load!

MMm ride on Sunday? Might be a go depending on head status.

Thats a bit random? dredging up a post from way back then - and then proceeding to instruct us in the obvious?

idea for you

here

long term forecast looks great for sunday (21st) so if anyone interested lets look at doing this route. Leave hotel at 11.00 (allows for frosts etc to dry out). Can meet at hotel if $10 breakfast wanted at 9.45 and just talk some crap until 11.00 for those interested!!

forecast still great for sunday!!

I am currently juggling two kids parties, one adult party to see if I can make a window for Sunday. Looking promising at this stage.

You're just a couple of millennia out of date here crazyhorse...and maybe preaching to the converted as well....besides, I love busting my arse trying to keep up with the loonies...

In fact the LOR group works very well indeed - come join us one day!

[insomnia01]

forecast still great for sunday!!

I could be in for this !!

[mister.koz]

I could be in for this !!

I hope to make this one too, or i will be doing a longer route with less stops and more roads

[slofox]

I'll see what I can do as well. I have to be back in the Tron about 1.00pm but I can surely start the run and just peel off when I have to...

Definately preaching to the converted there, we've been doing the "ride at your own" the whole time (since october) i would like to see dual rides as well so the quicker riders don't have to stop for so long and the other riders don't try and keep up.

See how it pans out.

OMG, I had a closer look, That is FANTASTIC!

Leslie Road from the Manaku's, Is that sealed ?

Just add to the Laxed Reply : Yes we are indeed VERY converted, We are lucky enough to have sensible types both new and experience on the rides. Come along!!!! COME COME!!! Enjoy you will be welcome.
