I know how to get there, they do good food n coffee and is just a short divert off the Bayview road. Did I do ok?

You are referring to (one of) Speights Alehouse, Shed 2, Thirsty Whale, Gintrap or Hepsetmooch. All in a row, just where you describe. All worth a crack.

Indeed. The Hitchers are yet to develop a favourite from that list, althought I currently have the Thrusty Whale ahead by a whisker.

Hep Set Mooch are rubbish. Nice food, average coffee, but they treat the staff like shit, and I know I wouldn't go there.
I'll try and get work off for the arvo and join you all for lunch.

Da Muffin run is on. We will gather at the BP Taradale Rd at 1.30 on Sunday 16th. Will leave at 1.35 for a group ride. Yep a group ride. We have not done one of them for a while. Ride rules are as follows,

Lead rider ( wasp27 ) knows the rout and will lead.
I am the Tailend Charily and will stay at the back.
The rider who finds themselves 2nd in line will stop at the intersections and show the rest of us where Wasp27 went.
They will stay at that point till I have gone past.
Then you are to pass me and let me stay at the back.
Simple aye.

Yes a slow ride this time and please bring as many bike riders as possible. I will call Moo before we leave da BP and let her know how many riders we have and she can get the baking done and the coffee and tea made.

She is getting the Easter eggs for da Muffins as I type. Mmmmmmmmm

Also we are hosting the Hawkes Bay round of the 4X4 national champs her on the farm over Easter weekend. I will post more details later but from what I have seen there is plenty of advertising for this event around town. Hope some of you can make it.

We'll be there for the muffin run Steve.
I have sent you a PM re Easter...

**McDuck** · 11th March 2008, 16:52

If it is a bike it is welcome. However it will be a slow ride so all riders can keep up. More bikes the better but it would be good to give me some idea by Saturday night so Mooo can plan as these Muffins need to be hot from the oven.

So far we have Tart,MSTRS,HXC?,Wasp27,Mrs Wasp,Gixxer 4 ever,Cello_duck and???? Should be fun.

**hXc** · 11th March 2008, 18:53

I'll ring work tomorrow and see about the muffin run, will do what I can.
