Sweenz Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Hey guys, Seems like the Wellington region is a bit dead on here. New to Welly so would be keen to catch up with some locals members, especially to find out where the good roads are... I'm originally from the Coromandel and missing the roads up there. Hopefully we can sort a meet or even just a couple of people that want to catch up sometime soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamp Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I picked up a daily today from wellywood, there must've been something going on today as there was a v1/2 555 liveried GC8 around as well as many tough looking later model sti/wrx. (and mx5s, but we won't go there lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxn Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Hi, I'm a newbie in Wellington too. I'm keen to roll along if there's a meet happening. In my experience good roads are hard to find without going over the Remutakas. Korokoro is ok. Around Pauatahanui harbour is nice but busy. Some will rate Makara / Ohariu but I'm not a fan. It's narrow and poorly sighted and a favourite for cyclists. The roads that branch off Makara road can be good but they're often dead ends...

Admin RAYDEO Posted July 19, 2020 Admin Share Posted July 19, 2020 Not much has been happening in Wellington for a long time, but nothing stopping us sorting something. Pick a date and a location and lets get something off ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweenz Posted July 20, 2020 Author Share Posted July 20, 2020 Well location I probably shouldn't pick, since I just moved here... but in general I'm free thursday night or saturday morning/lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Member Joker Posted July 20, 2020 General Member Share Posted July 20, 2020 I'm WELL out of the area but Thurs nights "used" to be a meet @ the Esplande in Petone just a suggestion could re-invent that (we're talking @Davebro days back in the early 2000's could mix it up & do a Kapiti spot for Wedges & a beer once in a while too (just a suggestion & I'm poking my nose in) gets some locals out & usually an excuse for a 'drive' or tiki tour "there" or back also no reason you ant just say Central Welly or your usual Cafe out Miramar for a Burger (also fun trip around the bays etc :P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkchief1 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I'd be keen to make an appearance! Wouldn't be in a Subie (yet) but would be good to meet some members of the club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chulozumo Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I’m not really Wellington based anymore and have been trying to find a new Rep for the last three years or so. Please feel absolutely free to organise a meet. Anything you want from burger fuel, fish and chips at a park, or just standing around in a car park We had 30 people jammed into a McDonald’s once....anything at all 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
