Hi team,

Leaving at 9am. OK so to me that says meet at 8:30am leaving at 9am.
(So to get there in time, coming from the other side of town I will need to get up about 7am.)

If everyone aims to get there at least 15 minutes before the departure time of 9am then we get time to meet any new fellas as well as accommodate the fact that some folk might run late cos it may take them longer to travel across Auckland to get there than they had expected.

So try to get there between 8:30 and 8:45 folks cos we're leaving at 9am.

Trust me it's a good run and a ton of fun! Be there on time so you don't miss out. :idea:

As for me, I need to get an MR2 on the road (again). :lol:

No worries Paul. Just that the club spent the last decade working to a "meeting" time as opposed to a "leaving" time mate. If people don't twig to the difference they will find themselves wondering what happened and why nobody else showed up (when in fact they have already left). Trust me, I know... :oops: :lol: :P

Yeah would be pretty stoked if the run could start slightly later for the above reasons, but happy to go along with the general consensus

I will hope to be coming from Hamilton in terms of start time. 10am is a bit more relaxed for those of us travelling a bit but I will make anything work as long as I have a steering rack in the car.
