Hey All,

Thought I'd better remind ya about the Ashhurst Inn Apiti Scamper 2011.

Come for a great ride, great burger, great company and a very very worthwhile auction, with amazing items from a Weekend away,ferry crossings, riding jackets, restaurant vouchers, and food hampers. Most of the stuff went last year for next to nix, ask those who came last year.

See ya all on the second, if you don't know where the Inn is, it is the Red Pub you can see from the main road in Ashhurst.

If ya have any spare cash floating around......

It would go to a good cause to get this chicky back on her feet once shes outta hospital and onto another

in due time.

Im not hassling anyone for money but this is a way we could help her back for all the help she has given others at various times and places.

I got two new tyres and need a decent ride so am thinking Pongoroa for lunch? Any takers. will post more details and map later today. But thinking coffee stop in Martinborough 10.30ish. Leave there 11, up the nice way to Pongoroa fro lunch, then back same way, but stop at White Swan or Gladdy. Kapiti riders may want to go back over the Track?

Here is map but if anyone wants to change route, thats okay too

**Paul in NZ** · 8th April 2011, 07:57

Now I have to admit that I've never actually BEEN to Pongaroa (SP).... Tempting as it is, unfortunately other duties call but I am thinking I must go there one day....

**Quasi** · 8th April 2011, 08:10

me neither Paul - hence the map!!

As much as I would like to join you Carla, I will probably have my head under the cage bonnet trying to get it sorted. Enjoy and give us an update of the ride.

**Quasi** · 8th April 2011, 10:13

Cage can wait Kenny, its going to be a cracker of a day weatherwise!!

I looked at Google street view and would suggest you carry a sandwich with you!

I remember going that way once chasing someone that turned the wrong way at Alfredton and the road turned to gravel which is where I found him cos he stopped...

I'd love to but Saturday afternoon is my only opportunity. Another time, It's been ages since we've ridden together.
