Weathers looking like it could be good for a ride tomorrow. Little interest shown so far - where is everyone???

**jmk** · 7th March 2009, 17:14

As much as we would love to be there, is a little far for us to go

Poor excuse I know

Hi Y'all

Did any of you go on the Wespac Charity Ride in Akl on Sunday?

It was pretty cool. 1000+ bikes, 12k raised, visit from the Chopper, bikes as far as the eye could see on the motorway.

Lights through Akl city set to green for the bikes.
Sadly I didn't have my camera, it was on birthday party duties with my better half. (not her birthday LOL). If anyone went, did they get any pics?

Or even better a vid.

Yep it was a very goodin, only had rain once or twice briefly. Pity more bikes didnt come! 8 bikes went with 3 new/newer riders to the group. Adamm missed us by 5 minutes but luckily we took the long way to Kihikihi and he was waiting there for us. Kihikihi to Tokoroa was a great ride, good road surface, long sweeping corners and a lot of fun. First coffee at Tokoroa, then the back road to Mangakino (didnt go state highway 1 way). Again some brilliant straights, a little rain (which caused a rethink of the route) and we went Mangakino direct back to Kihkihi which had some great twisty road and good straights and the most awesome bridge which we stopped on and all got virtago. Back to Kihikihi them Pirongia for final coffee stop and chat and then home. back about 4.00ish. Yet again good roads, good company, good fun.

Haha I see you found that bridge 5mins down the road from arahina.

It takes a long time for a paper dart to get to the bottom we found out onetime on the way back from a snowboarding mish

The chance to do a Coro loop of any sort is running out of time, I'm keen just waiting on new rear tyre to arrive which, with abit of luck should be fitted saturday.
