Mop Head Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Lance Dela Cruz, aka; Julio on Moped NZ FB page, or the little Filipino dude with the rowdy underbone bikes is in. He's a FOAMERS prospect. Good rider. Edit: Andrew Swinton aka; Raglan mate is in for sure. Thats 2 so far. Will update this with more non OS ers if they reply. Will update about other non OS-ers shortly, but there isn't too many I've talked too. Less than I can count on one hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Got a hour in the shed this morning and smashed these 2 jobs out. Shaped up the top tube ready to weld in and narrowed a rear carrier 80mm for a slimmer lookin setup 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris r Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Im planning on coming. Also attending the ride. Just need to get a bike together 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyfive Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 I need to do some minor things (WOF), but I plan to have 2 (super underwhelming) CTs sorted out by ride day if anyone finds themselves short a bike. Pretty sure no one has claimed the spare one yet. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure no one has claimed the spare one yet. What's top speed on the spare CT J-5? I'm pretty keen to roll Ronnie for this trip. Buy simple economics mean not lugging it up there works out cheaper. I've got a decent price to get him sent up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTERUS Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I rode the spare last year, she's a good steed. 80km/h tapped out on flat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyfive Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 Yeah its geared to nang@85, but only has the power to pull 80. Essentially a bog standy postie bike with ~60,000km. Pre-loosened up and ready to nang WOT downhill for minutes at a time. Technically you ought to have a bike licence to ride one, but don't think anyone is going to be checking such specifics. I'll do my best to get it a WOF and possibly even 30days rego. If no one needs it I'll likely throw it on a trailer as a spare bike on the day. That Vity thing sure was convenient last year I think we can all agree. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 That safety net of there being a recovery vehicle is the best piece of mind ever! It's like having an extra bottle of jack/box of do-bro "just in case". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Im 50/50 on them. Every QCR ride we have had a support vehicle we have 2 or 3 breakdowns out of a dozen bikes and when there is no support vehicle we have no breakdowns . Be good backup on these foreign roads for sure tho. Plan on hauling all my shit tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
