Wellington Wednesday Night Cruisy Summer Rides -- 2008/09

[Gareth51]

About 48 I think...earlier this year.

I was talking to Gordy today, of Gordy's bar in Paraparaumu. He said he would like a photo of all the bikes lined up in his carpark to hang on the wall in his bar.

There is some sense to doing the Paekak hill to Gordys tomorrow - with the southerly the weather will be better on the Coast than on the Hill/ Wairarapa
(have checked - no rain for coast tomorrow)
-With the receding daylight it is easier for folk to get home (with option of PK hill or motorway)
-Gordys can easily cater for an onset of 30+ bikers, and would probably throw out some complimentry nibbles.
Its a good venue for our last official Wed nite social - perhaps we could rattle up a few of the folk that havent been for a while and make it a bit of a party????

Sounds like a good idea bro, could be good for our last get together,people who work late could go straight there

[RocKai]

Yup, Coast > Hill for me. I want a photo as well to hang up

hmmmm.....might go over the taka's for once...I feel a decent ride coming on...

[Rev DJ]

Yep, Sels, Gordie's would be a good idea. C'mon, let's see if we can get 50+ bikes - put the word around... DJ

Your call...we did do the Tukas last week. (and the Thurs ride will go there tomorrow..)
As this is the last TCWNR for the summer we were thinking more of the social aspect tonite - and Gordys can accomodate that.

And the weather is fine on the coast today....and a bit dodgy looking over the Rapa

You'll be thrilled Selwyn, I can't make it because my bike got blown over last Friday.

Please look after my mate Rob though. He's down from Auckland and he's on a silver and yellow BMW GS.

Sorry to hear about your bike Jim. Will keep an eye out for Rob.

One of those things and the exhaust pipe and Renthal bars saved the rest of the bike.

Missed the last ride for the season. Got the word on the loss of electrics on the Busa today; the rectifier failed. Now I wait to find out if there is one in NZ.

Awesome ride today, that was quite a scenic ride on the way to the top. Definitely will go there again in the weekend or something.

An excellent ride to finish. I had my youngest with me; she jumped around with pure delight trying to watch the other bikes, which was fantastic, except for the fact we were going along the winding roads at the time. I though she was going the to give me a dead arm/side the amount of times she me when she wanted to pint something out to me .

In Wgtn is there any events where 10 yrs and under can go for rides as pillions/learn to ride? It'll be great if there was something organised. I know my two would be on there best behaviour to be allowed to go.
