It has probably been asked already but since I'm going senile, I'll ask again.

Where are we all assembling Saturday morning?

Servo at National Park could work but if some of the trailer trash are planning to assault the 42 west to east, then maybe the cafe in Owhango would be better.

I don't have much of an idea either Bass, but the start of Marks thread says 10 am at National park to do Fishers first.
Tempting to nail the 42nd on the way to National park tho?

the intention was that we all meet at the service station at National Park at 10am.

After we have done Fishers both ways we will decide how to approach the 42nd (over lunch at National Park)

I suspect we mayl effectively be in two groups - the trailies and the big bikes - but it all depends on who turns up on what.

Have you decided which mount you are bringing?

Me, Joe and hopefully Barry will be aiming for there at 10.

Mark, when we go through Fishers can we regroup at the fallen tree stump for a few minutes and have a look there at what thats like. Thats the only point that may stop the big bikes going both ways and I'm keen to go the other way.

I do not think we have many with "big bikes", from my memory Devil was the only one on a big'un (from the Auckland group), and he is just doing the ride down, he is not joining us for the saturday ride. And 990's do not count as big bikes, under 1000cc

Unless you call at 650 a "big bike"

I'm on my R100GS PD, Alex will be on his R80GS I think, I'm not sure what others there might be.

There's a bit of rain here this morning.
You guys might wanna do the 42nd "downhill" (South to North).
