We could meet up with the bronz guys at avalon to give those with minor ass padding a chance to stretch their legs?

I was going to say Salvation suits me fine, but looks like you might head straight to Avalon? Wonder if it will be open ANZAC morning anyway?

**GingerMidget** · 23rd April 2012, 19:22

Oh pants. I forgot about the not being open thing. I'll check with them on the way to work tomorrow morning if I remember. Otherwise maccas is across the road from my place, and they will be open.

Maccas?... but... coffee!! (don't try and pass that stuff they sell as coffee, even they apologised for it!... http://recipefinder.msn.co.nz/articl...for-bad-coffee )
Get better coffee at the service station.

Theres a bp at the other end of the building i live in. Two guys there make decent stuff. Plus large parking area for bikes.

**rustyrobot** · 23rd April 2012, 19:52

And also moto-caffeine for thirsty motorcycles! Sounding like a plan, if it suits other folks?

**Hoarn** · 23rd April 2012, 20:20

Suits me fine. Where is the BP of which you speak? Adelaide Road next to Firestone?

**GingerMidget** · 23rd April 2012, 20:29

Thats the one.

I am in upper hutt for the week with my bike so i thought i will join you so expect a bit of support from a 'sunny Hawkes Bay' rider..

Nothing has changed has it? Meeting 10ish for a 11am departure on park road?

Yep, some might start arriving around 10'ish.

**rustyrobot** · 24th April 2012, 17:21

So... city dwellers, 9:15 at the BP on Adelaide for coffee, leaving at 9:45? Anyone aware of road closures for ANZAC day?

**GingerMidget** · 24th April 2012, 18:51

Works for me. I'll be there, snot bells and all. Some nasty gave me a head cold in the last day or so, so I'll self medicate with beer and pizza.

Koro

Physically where is the registration point (Table etc)? I've got a group of riders and it would be great to know where to physically go rather than opposite Mitre10..

Cheers

No registration as such. Bikes just tend to accumulate along the Park frontage and there will be someone there wondering around (or being swamped) selling the badges. It's usually Buzz (who rides a trike and looks like Colonel Sanders).

The whole affair is pretty social and informal.
