Laxed out rides

[Murray]

Planning on coming along next Sunday for one of these now I am living in Cambridge, is the location as mentioned in the first post on Kahikatea still meeting point? and what time do you normally meet?

Cheers

Grant

Keep an eye on the calendar - rides usually go up Thursdays after discussion and a few bevies at the rapa tavern on the Wednesday night. Rides generally are weather forecast dependent and we usually ride 2 or 3 times a month during the summer.

No ride planned for this weekend as people away - bikes under repair etc etc

If you are looking at getting away you could try this

Alternatively Nev could advise a few approx times and you could met up at Taurmarunui or something. I think he has changed his route to going down through New Plymouth and back up to Whangomongona.

Went up to Ardmore and had a close and personal look at the mosquito, and watch Glynn Powell go for a fly, away for a long time apparrently went over to Pauanui. A great way to spend a sunny Friday.
Also had a good look at the ex Tim Wallace spitfire rebuild, coming along nicely and the Bonne ran exceptionally well.
I'll put some photos up as soon a sI can get can.

Please do put some photo's up, that'd be nice. Got some of my own Sunday 2 weeks ago but more is always good, saw Tim's' old bird in my mates hanger with fuselage and wings both rebuilt and ready to go back together about 2 years ago. These things do take time.
Isn't that Mossie just bewdiful?

This sounds cool. The good news is Brooke may even be keen to jump on this (god knows we've been wanting to do something like this since we got on bikes).

I'd say she'll be dead keen for the next local ride as well since she lost about 3.5kg's in the early hours of this mourning I'm even going to be nice for the next little while and baby sit while she goes on rides since she's be hanging out so much to get back on Sonic II and finally wear her new gear.

Congrats mate , although Mum might like getting out on the bike and you'll be left at home
