    SMC Westpac Ride Sunday

    Hi All, the annual Westpac helicopter ride is on this Sunday.
    The ride leaves from the Karaka Blood Stock Centre in Papakura & goes through queen street then to Akoranga campus on the shore. Numbers in the last few years have ranged from 500 to nearly 1500 bikes, so lets get out there and show our support for such a worthy cause. Badges are $10, Tees $20

    The SMC will meet at the Autobahn (BP Service Centre just past the Papakura/Beach Rd offramp on the Southern Mway) @ 7:45, Departing 8:15 for the blockstock centre. Hope to see you there!
    Who'll be joining me?

    Fuck me. How long d' y' think it takes to get from Papakura to Karaka?

    I am yet to be convinced that human existence is possible at time so far distant from the normal space time continuum. Have you considered the relatavistic and quantum implications of moving at any speed in such aberrational conditions?

    Psssh there's actually a sign there now with Karaka too

    I might do my own ride... Like meet you guys at Autobahn, then ride to Karaka to my house, and go back to sleep, or something.
