Te Whakawi U Turners Northland Ride (16-18 Nov)

[Mom]

This sounds so familiar to me! I just gave up in the end and splashed out. I thought I'll be happy as I am and if I lose then all the better!

I have lost just over 12kgs now and am still dropping, I want to get a little lower and then settle before I buy new gear. I will be able to sell my fat stuff Are you planning on coming with us this weekend?

[Phreak]

Congratulations Doogle! Bet it feels great!

(Yes, I am still watching this thread, even though we aren't coming...)

Yeah I've lost 10kgs but still want to lose another 10kgs to really tone up, and then I'll get some new stuff to show off the sexy curves

I will see how it goes for this weekend. When/where exactly are we meeting again? I'm supposed to be packing as I'm moving next weekend, but I don't have a huge amount of rubbish and can do it on Sunday I guess!

I've lost weight...... sexy curves and stuff.........mumblemumble.........

Where are we meeting again?

I didn't hear much else sorry.

If Maha follows true to form it will be at the Papakura Autobahn. SH1 down souf, off at the big sign that says 'SERVICE CENTER.' If you see the offramp sign for drury, you've gone too far.


Ride brief anytime from 9:30 to 10:30am leaving shortly after

You know me to well Doogle...
10AM LEAVE but all the rest is right.

Won't be able to make the weekend ride unfortunately, got a mate back from overseas on Sat, and had planned to hit the drags for the Kawasaki fun day on Sunday. Still amping for the Northland ride tho

hmmm if it is raining on sat, i might not be going to tauranga because of rain..evidently. in that case if your ride is on sunday, i could possibley join, but beware I am slower than usual.

[Maha]

Yet another spot has become vacant..

Officially two spots up for grabs now, short notice on both counts for anyone who could have got the time off work previously.

Try this (just 2 road changes, Te Pahu road is a nice change from SH39, and Honikiwi Rd is some nice twisties) Map Linky

Adds probably 20 minutes to the trip.

[Rehab]

My roster keeps getting changed about every 2 days. At this stage still buggered for the Norf trip but if you harden up and ride south in light drizzle this weekend I'll come and meet yous fullas for lunch.

As you were (discussing weight loss as I recall...?)

I had intentions of using Te Pahu road on the Kawhia trip but couldn't see it at Whatawhata, though after our detour to Nikau Cafe, it didn't really matter.

Alrighty hoe then, best check the thread Saturday night for final details, the whole weather system has bumped out a day (fucker) and I've had my hair done

[nathanwhite]

Ah, well if it's on Sunday then I'm out.

I've just remembered I promised my friend I'd do some boxing training with her Saturday morning so I'm out if it ends up then. I hate passing up on a ride but may have to even if it's on Sunday as I'm moving house next weekend and need to pack.

[Maha]

No weekend ride organised...will wait till 'today week'...
Might end up at Meremere on Sunday....weather permitting.
