Riding by myself.. not so much fun.

[mj_scorpio]

I've jumped onto a zx6r now but i am still keen on normal rides, not into racing like a loonie even if my bike can do it.

I have a few mates around now that would likely be keen on rides around the place, will try and organise days and times people are free then i will start a new thread and leave a message here or PM people who want in.

Up and down the country at the moment for work so might be a week or 3 out sorry.

am only in h town 3 more wks so that counts me out! mayb next yr tho

Was saying a week or 3 cause i really don't have a timeframe will keep you posted anyways.

Just a thought, looks like there's a good few hamiltonians here, all riding, why not have a hamilton group, seen one already:

But i am not sure of the etiquette of the groups
ideas?

[Mr. Rock]

hmm had a look they do wednesdays which is average cause i cant ride wednesdays..

[Murray]

They used to do Wednesdays but that has been pretty much a no go over winter etc. I also suspect the Wednesday crew are more racers and do not cater for those of us that like biking for the ride factor rather than the get there as quick as we can factor. a la Mr carver and co

[mister.koz]

Oh ok, shall we start a group with a creative name like "hamilton - laxed rides" ? I have no idea how to start a group mind you...

Ideas anyone?

A Sunday Mass Group would be good (No Mormons allowed). I went out on Sunday to Morrinsville, turned left just after, then right over the highway along the marshes to the Paeroa/TeAroha road, through Te Aroha to Matamata, back up the highway and then did that road from there direct to Morrinsville for the first time, great straights. Great ride but would have been cool with a few others. Did Kawhia the weeknd before, thats a cool cruisey ride too??

I'm keen if anyone wants to take a leisurely Sunday ride starting mid morning!!!

I generally work the rest of the week

[mister.koz]

Alright then we need someone to start on this so i am keen on a ride on sunday, was thinking mystery creek -> cambridge -> matamata -> te-aroha -> swamp roads to the back of morrinsville then back to hams. Not a concrete plan just a start will start a new thread.

How about Sunday week (Labour Weekend), see if we can get some interest by then. I actually have to go to Rotovegas (by cage) this weekend

there hasn't been much organised for riding in Hamilton for while has there,But I have been on a couple good rides in a groups catering for smaller bikes and new riders. And the wiakato has some great roads close to Hamilton

I'm a nana on my 1200, so I don't mind pacing it with 250's

I'm another nana on a 600, if I can escape from the family for a while I will be in.
Yeah strange isn't it. There does seem to be alot of Hamiltonians here but the ride front is pretty quiet.

I am often out there on a Sunday.........usually earlyish though.....

In case you guys are interested the latest on a Sunday ride is
