Yet another awesome ride guys, only two breakdowns and a push start to report. Can't wait for the next ride, see you all not too soon!!!

What happened to the ride through Queen St? The route to QS was even in the official ad.

Generally well behaved bunch and had a good chat to a couple on a K3 DL1000 yellow Canadaian import.

As always Kev, lovely to see you, butt "no thanks,"for your services. LOL, I have and always will recommend MRS as a great caring motorcycle recovery service to my friends and the wider motorcycle fraternity.
Yep she was a cracker ride. Lot's a people; lot's a bikes I hope that we did a good job of making plenty for the Westpac boys and girls.
The FBMC was, as always, widely represented and our day began a bit earlier at Manurewa.
The BFTP though woefully lacking in numbers was also represented by no less than 4 members and their bikes.Thanks guys, hope you did actually make it, though I suspect not as we did not see any of you at the ride end.
We even had man on a Harley (nice Harley too) who tagged along with the FBMC'ers, I hope he wasn't too traumatized that his early morning destination wasn't a HOG meeting point.
Looking forward to receiving my badge in the mail,had a ball and thank you to the ride organisers who I know were stretched to the max and very grateful to see so many bikes and their riders turn out today.
Had the rare privilage of riding with a long lost friend today, enjoyed the trip back mate and hope to see you again in the Tron next week for the Hammy Sally's toy run.
NoNoNo , glad you made it out today mate and of course back home I hope.te he he. Was damn fine to see you mate.
Just as an aside has anyone seen or heard anything on any of the news services about today's incredible sight on Auckland s motorways, of motorcyclists turning out in their thousand to help the WestPac Rescue Helicopter?
Be nice to see us in the news for all the right reasons for a change.

Well he wasnt "totally" alone in his ownership of own of them HOG things ah

What a great day and from where I was - a very well behaved bunch of bikers and pretty patient car drivers. Awesome to see the numbers up after last year and I look forward to hearing how much was raised and how many bikes there were officially. Thanks to Caseye (and Mrs Caseye) for allowing us FBMC to wake up all his neighbours this morning

Was nice to meet you, although briefly!

Thanks for rescuing my mate Neil, I felt bad leaving him, but he insisted!

Haven't seen anything in the herald or any other services of yet. Looking forward to seeing other footage of the day. Was a stunning day and the speed of all the riders was actually quite well paced. Another great event.

Thanks Caseye - it was cool meeting the fatties at your place! I got lots of good hugs too! Even that random dude that said "wheres mine?" got one!

[Fatt Max]

Great day out and thanks Cas for hosting the FBMC pre ride at your gaff.Brilliant turn out and once again met some fantastic people all united for a great cause.

Great ride, I only caught the end of it but I snapped a few pics from Curran street overbridge.

It's great to hear how it went as I was so busy I didn't have time to notice.Definitely more bikes than last year and more money flowing in than last yearCan't confirm numbers yet but about 600.There are definitely some things to improve on.Did you prefer the Warehouse car park or AUT car park?

Not sure what official ad you were looking at as Queen Street has been off the itinerary for a couple of years and there has been no mention in my posters.

It i s a great function to meet or catch up with other bikers

Looking forward to it. Was waiting to see if anyone other people had some footage of the event. Will look out for it. Cheers

Sorry, I was looking at the photo of the bikes queued on the Wellesley street off ramp heading to Queue. The ride down QS was always a highlight, rather than the drudge up the southern and through spagetti.
