Thursday 22nd April Public Motorcycle Ride #2
This ride is known as 'Round the Block', leaving from Memorial Square Carterton. Ride briefing is at 9.50am, stands up at 10am.
For continuity of riding, corner marking is an important part of the ride and will be explained at ride briefing.
Riders are expected to travel at a pace they are comfortable with. This is not a Targa type speed event, and, aside from mechanical issues, it's about enjoying the company and the ride.
Total distance is approximately 315kms, taking 4 3/4hrs plus stops and lunch (estimated at 6hrs total). Lunch is planned for Shannon in the Horowhenua. The stops are to allow all riders to regroup if spread out.
There will opportunities for time constrained riders to break off at these stops and return home to their other duties.
See you there at Memorial Square, with full tanks, correct tyre pressures, lubed chains and let's go have some fun.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
