    Arrow WELLINGTON Ride. 1/2/09

    Ok Guys,

    Last weekend was a shocker. 4 bikes!!!

    This time I want the biggest turn out ever!
    Start Point: Porirua Train Station.
    Time: 10:30am

    Where we going Gixxer? Starting off riding up through until Paraparaumu McD's.
    Going up the coast taking in the beach views, carrying on to whatever nice coffee shop we find on our way. Turning back around 1:30pm back along the coast and maybe stopping for a swim so bring togs coz cameras will be aplenty!
    Then back for some light refreshments. Then split up and on home we go.

    Everyone please sign in.
    Gixxer-King will be on a bike yay! Finally
    HOLDEN fan for life.

    He's the greatest damn mechanic that you ever have seen,
    Rounding off bolts since the age of 14.

    You plan the most mind-numbingly boring ride possible in the greater Wellington area,

    You then risk comatose by riding back the way you came.

    Hopefully this time "The King" will actually turn up on a bike to the ride he himself organised.

    All hail the gixxer-king How did KB ever survive without him?

    It's just a plan, we can always change it on the day. Hopefully I'll be there, I haven't done any group riding before, so a bit dull is just fine for semi-noobs.

    Dont forget the MC sprints are on in carterton on sunday !!! Now there's a good ride ! The keen riders could stop for a look, then continue on up to masterton, loop through the pahiatua track and home down the coast and over the paekok hill !
    Bout a four hour ride on some of the best roads in the lower north island !
    Have to agree with the whale rider ! The sea views are great, but not when ya have a cheesecutter only a few feet away from ya legs ! Mc D's does not digest ! The gladstone hotel (A 15 min ride from the sprints) do the best lunch menue ever !!!!
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Got to agree with Sinfull

    The ride over the hill and round the backroads, especially through Gladstone, is one of the best rides we've done so far.

    christ guys,
    I say its a fun ride that people can organise on the day, people complain so I give a vague idea of where we may go (its not in stone just a rough guide of which side of the country we will be on) people complain, so people have the following options

    a: dont read threads started by me, I really don't care.
    b: organise their own rides
    c: piss off altogether

    If you really can't make any friends on your own (which I find stunning personally given how well you respect others) don't come crashing our parade.

    I have wound this club up once before and it would be a shame for morons to get on my case again.
    If you don't like the ride don't come, its really simple enough a trained monkey could work it out.
    Once everyone is confident to go on longer more exciting rides then it shall be done, people who actually showed up to the first ride know that there are some in our group still finding their feet on their bikes and don't want to go over the takas yet.

    It's the Sprints on Sunday, Dalefield Rd just on the left as you go into Carterton.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Hey Gixxer

    I will be in for this ride, as long as no one comes over from cannons creek and steals my bike while I wait at train station :P

    Gixxer just ignore the ones who moan, they aren’t going to turn up anyway and if they do they only have the balls to be a prick on the forum.

    Look forward to seeing you on Sunday hopefully your bikes going by then.

    Cheers

    ok now I'm starting to get annoyed.

    Why did you mention that in this thread? In all the places to post that, why here?

    We have riders that don't want to go over the Taka's!!! So please don't make those suggestions.

    And why god why do I have people pm me and email me and post in the 250 thread that ride astonishingly large bikes?
    Is it some sort of I'm bigger than you thing?
    I myself don't even take my large bike out. This weekend it will be a sports 250 next weekend it will be a cruiser 250 so that people get the idea that a 250 has a number of uses and is fast enough.

    Cheers dude, I needed that, it's been a hard day.
    I'm working with companies and people to really help people who are learning to ride or wanting to learn to ride, its nice to see support every now and then.

    And yep I'll be on a nice shiney racey red comet this weekend.

    Next ride I'll make a welly meeting point, a hutt meeting point and a further north meeting point i think, save the moaning at least on one side.
