Westpac Rescue Helicopter Fundraiser!

[Mom]

Is everyone following a set route?

Kinda loses its effect if there isnt a big group, dont you think?

I agree, and my apologies for not attending to this last night as planned. Let me go and eat, and I will be back with the ride route for you.

I would like to say thank you to Mom and Maha for considering and solving the issues I raised yesterday, like I said all along I have absolute respect for what you both have achieved and you again have my full support for this event.

How hard can it be to follow 11 people in bright orange vests?

I'm colour blind - so shoot me!

What if someone needs gas? then wants back into the ride!

Besides that my 50cc Scoot might not keep up

By God, I hope its easy... I only have to follow 10 at worst, but shit, the stress...

...This is a 'maverick' "learner friendly" ride, right ???? p/t

These rides usually cruise along at a moderate pace, so dont worry use the follow safe distance rule, thats the most important thing and stay away from anyone being stupid.
The front usually rides slower and at a more easy pace that the back also.
You can always tuck in behind a KLR (not known to be the fastest thing out there)

Must have been a never ending meal...

Basically the ride will consist of a core group of riders (11) we will be the really attractive ones in orange fluro vests, and the wonderful people that are supporting this ride. We ask that the 11 orange vested riders are allowed to ride as a group and not be split up by others attending the ride.

We will leave from Botany Honda in Auckland at about 9:30am heading directly for the southern motorway on to highway 27 through Ngatea/Paeroa/Waihi and into Tauranga.

We will have a half hour there and then on to Rotorua, via Pyes Pah and the Old Tauranga Road to Rotorua.

Another half hour stop there, then heading north over the Mamakus and onto State Highway one into Hamilton.

A much needed break at Boyds Motorcycles on the Te Rapa Straights for half an hour and we will be heading north again on State Highway one into Auckland city finishing up at Mechanics Bay.

This has not been organised as a group ride, so we have made no contingencies other than for our core bunch of riders. We ask that you all take responsibility for your own ride, if you are attending with some friends work out your own TEC etc.

Look forward to seeing you all out having a ride on Saturday, hears hoping the weather plays the game!

Saying to keep away from Dangerous riders like Swidewinder and Carver (Oh by the way they intend on going on this ride and causing problems) is AWESOME advise..
I have asked both of them if they go please could they be on there best behaver..And they both laughed..

Crazy Steve..

Yeah thank you Steve....Jon (carver) sent me a pm on April 30th asking if theres anything that the Mormon Few can do. So I am well aware that we will see them at some stage...

[The Joka]

Just a thought with the absolute arse weather at the moment, which is being pushed by another freezing cold low is there an Atrocious rain date?

Hoping for the best - planning for the worst!

I dont mind getting wet

But riding in hail, freezing cold and on slippy roads would not be fun

WHAT IS A TEC?

[Gubb]

Tail End Charlie.

[Mom]

We have made no provivion for an alternative date, the ride will happen as planned. I guess the message is dress and ride appropriately for the conditions. Lets hope it is not too revolting, we want a really good turn out for this!

I have just been speaking the the Marketting man at the Westpac base in Auckland, he is going to put on a BBQ and a couple of beers for us when we get back to the base.

[RiderInBlack]

The Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust will oversee the distribution of the funds to each area. Of course, anyone can make a direct donation to their local Helicopter by visiting their local Westpac Bank.

If ya up here in the Norf make ya donation for Northland Electricity Rescue Helicopter by "visiting any ASB branch with their donation."

Wow thats pretty cool. I know how much you love suasages on the BBQ.

I am trying to source some thermals but hell if they can do the ride in the deep South then we dont really have an excuse ah
