Cold Kiwi Rally 2009 (4-6 Sept)

[crazyhorse]

:cold: Its nearly upon us again (4-6th September) :woohoo:

So? Whose going? And where are you travelling from? :scooter:

[gunnyrob]

I'm leading the auckland cold kiwi push. we will be there on Friday arvo & intend camping at the bottom of the entrance, just to the right hand side. Look for a yellow BMW R1200 GS & a white Buell XB12stt along with a burgundy Honda st1100

[crazyhorse]

Cool - maybe it will end up becoming a KB party. They're great fun.

[WuZards-Eugene]

We've got a group of us comming up from welly, hoping to set up the KB campsite and fire. Shouldn't be too hard to miss us :lol: we should have a flag or something up so everyone can flock over when they want.

[P38]

I got a group (well 1 at this stage :msn-wink:) leaving from Napier on Friday around lunchtime for Taupo.

Meeting up with some mates and rellies coming down from the Waikato, then heading for the campsite around three pm.

Your welcome to join us for the ride, the more the merrier,

Plus it would'nt hurt to have a rabbit to sweep the Napier-Taupo road for us too :innocent:

[buell]

At this stage:confused: a couple of mates and myself will be meeting a KB group coming up from Palmy on the friday and travel to the rally site via Taupo :chase:. Not sure on the details yet, but will post it up here soon :niceone:

[xgnr]

Paturoa and yours truly will be making the journey on Saturday morning from Dorkland.

Prolly leave around 9am or so from Greenlane.

PM me if you want to ride with us... we sort of stick to legal speeds.

Will be there in time for the events to start. Our usual possie is on the Knob close to the drain/Loos/events area. Just look for the old bald farts and the ugly SV1000 with custom handguards and the stunning BMW R1150RS.

FWIW
GPS track attached from last year for the geeks wondering where to go

See you all there !

Cheers

Stu

So? Whose going? And where are you travelling from? :scooter:[/QUOTE]

[WuZards-Eugene]

Anyone coming from wellywood is welcome to join us for the trip up. Taking the scenic route up through the Waiarapas, and then through apiti. Theres going to be a couple of 250's with us, so its not going to be a fast ride (the XR doesn't really like going over 110kph), however if we get enough people, we could split into two groups, slow and fast, will see what happens. Some gear may be able to be carried on the trailer aswell so PM me if anyones interested in joining us.

[toerag]

Crisp clear skies, that doesn't mean it will be cold does it? Does it? :cold:

http://www.metservice.co.nz/public/localWeather/taupo.html
Those overnight low numbers don't look right, they don't go that low here in Auckland even in the middle of Winter.
I think I might have to dress warm - multiple layers starting with thermals and ending with leathers.

:cold::cold::cold::cold::cold::cold::cold::cold:

[WuZards-Eugene]

Last year it was miserablely cloudy rite untill saturday evening just as the sun went down, then the skys opened up to be perfectly clear, and it turned to a hellish cold. Im guessing if its open skys all day, it should be warm during the day, and extreamly blardy cold at night. Aww well, theres plenty of fires around to warm up at.

[crazyhorse]

The days can be warm - but the nights can be unbelievably cold - prepare for the worst. :cold::cold: Need thermals for sure

[Sidewinder]

3 am? IF such a time really does exist (and I am not convinced that it does) then as long as I'm not doing sentry I am fine with it.

why do they call it the cold kiwi when you need suntan lotion etc at this time of year :whistle:

[Sidewinder]

why do they call it the cold kiwi when you need suntan lotion etc at this time of year :whistle:

because theres heaps of city slicker that cant handle the cold

[MaxB]

why do they call it the cold kiwi when you need suntan lotion etc at this time of year :whistle:

Because when it was at the Six Cross camp (near the summit of the Desert Road) it was a lot colder. Always got ice there and sometimes snow. Cold enough to freeze contact lens solution.

The current site is tropical in comparison.

Even penguins refuse to go to six cross camp. Amazing how 20K's change of location makes a difference. Mind you Shrek, apart from 20mins snow at the Brass this year, the Brass has not been cold for for many a year.

[rebyl]

Bikes almost all packed and I will be taking the long route....all the way from Taumarunui...hahahahah. Weather looks good..hope so anyway, my old camping bones don't like the cold floors anymore:apint:

My 1st coldie, had a good time but didn't meet many people, too busy eating and keeping warm! Met Carver and Thani-B with Korumba[Wasn't you violating the R1 up the hill was it?] The weather was perfect, couldn't get better!

[gunnyrob]

Feck yeah, We're the Champs! Thanks for the great weekend everyone, it's the people that make rallies like this so enjoyable.

Warren & I got back to Auckland via the Gentle Annie & Napier. What a magnificent day.

Dash it we missed each other :crybaby:

My first too, a delayed arrival but had a great time :2thumbsup:
Thanks to Horse for insisting that I went and for the pre-leave brekkie :2thumbsup:

Thanks to the 2 x Robs and Garry on his gorgeous new Thunderbird for the escort up, your idea of pootling stretched me a little :lol:

The Napier boys picked me up in Waioru and it was onto the gravel and into the rum :yes:

Awesome site, shame I couldn't manage two weiners at once but I will be better next year cause I am gonna practice. I won't blame Grant for his riding, quite liked the Kitana to be honest.

Good on the KB pullers in the TOW

Thanks to Gerbil and Blacksheep for not exacting revenge on the furry rally hat, I definately needed it here!!!!

Thanks to Charlie41 for sharing the tent, nice to hear the wellington boys spent their night listening for anything to feed their dirty little two girl fantasies. Too busy sleeping and freezing my toes off. You'll be pleased to hear that Charlie spent half the night on top thou :lol:

Buell had a poorly bike before we even made Fields Track on Sunday :weep: but I know he got home safe and sound. I was getting a soft spot for that bike as well. Told him he should get a Triumph.

Spirited run home via Fields Track, Fordell Valley and Vinegar hill. I sooo love :love: my bike (just incase anybody didn't know) and windy roads :yes:

Jared talked himself into giving me track day advice too so all in all a bloody good result.

I will wear a name badge and be more outrageous next time so we don't miss each other. I had the furry hat on and a bright blue T-shirt.

My editing program is processing 544 RAW files into JPEG and adjusting where I've told it to do so.

When it's done, I'll start posting some of my Cold Kiwi shots here

[Laava]

Dash it we missed each other :crybaby:
I will wear a name badge and be more outrageous next time so we don't miss each other. I had the furry hat on and a bright blue T-shirt.

I checked out your link and see that you were camping by the old guy with the 700 Enfield twin? We were next to him by the drain tailings. You must have been able to smell our baked beans cooking in the morning! Anyway, the old guy was at the 1st ever CK and had the photos to prove it!

[MarkH]

I have transferred my pics to my PC and had a look through them - picked a few I likes, crap 118 pics! I'll have to go through them a couple more times and cut down the number before putting them on my website. In the meantime I'll post up a few here. I have already gotten Irfanview to batch process the 118 to make them a more KB friendly res.

Here's the first few. Pic 1 & 2 are from the Autobahn Papakura before we headed down.

[MarkH]

Here are some more.

The last 3 are of some naughty biker suspected of riding over some bridge arches.

[MarkH]

Leaving at 7am, just about to go to bed now. What a night.

Good seeing you again - got some hill climb pics.

[MarkH]

Some more pics from the hill climb.

[MarkH]

Even more from the hill climb.

[MarkH]

Here are some more pics - the first one may be a bit disturbing for many.

[DIN PELENDA]

I didnt say a word...
Thats awesome! lol

I hope it was not to cold for you Thani, that Carver dude is such a cool :cold:gay !
O yeah Thani I have met your ex , he is nice guy 2 :niceone:.

[DIN PELENDA]

Oh and Din, hope you dont mind, but Im copying some of your photos to put on there as well. Like the ones of me and Korumba lol

I don't mind that, but I do mind that you steal my bitch from me!:weep::Oops: And I'm not talking about Korumba.

[WuZards-Eugene]

Good seeing you again - got some hill climb pics.


Hey, cheers for that Mark. Hope you enjoyed the weekend.

Very surprising that it was alot quieter in the early hours of the morning this year. Its like the place just died after 1am. Whats wrong with everyone.

He was really cool and puttered off just before us in the morning :sunny:
Beans, you mean I missed breakfast , darn it now I am even more sad I missed you :lol:

Quiet :lol: I heard bombs going off all night and lots of talking shit into the early hours up our way. Must admit I did crawl into my sleeping bag around midnight but that was largely due to the hottie in there :lol:

Apparently -5 inside the tent , no wonder my toes were chilly.

Good practice for my trip south on sunday......

[Laava]

He has had that bike for 40 yrs and paid 60 quid for it as a box of bits. So he restored it then and has only maintained it since. It is one of 4 in NZ he reckons and now he is worried about what will happen to it as he has NO family! Hope he is there again next year!

[Thani-B]

I hope it was not to cold for you Thani, that Carver dude is such a cool :cold:gay !
O yeah Thani I have met your ex , he is nice guy 2 :niceone:.

Lol I froze! Have to make sure that I take hot water bottles that dont leak for next year.
Ah and yes he is a nice guy, but there is a reason he is my ex.


I don't mind that, but I do mind that you steal my bitch from me!:weep::Oops: And I'm not talking about Korumba.

Im confused lol. Who?

KBers pulled well and the old Hondog made me yearn for SK1PY




....all friggin day he did this!........WARNING! WARNING!, don't drink the Stones Green Ginger Wine...................


I thought green ginger wine was compulsory for those who rallied. Helped me in my excuses for missing the multiple weiners!!!

[Thani-B]

How many can I post before they get upset????


Haha awesome! You could keep goin, I wouldnt mind, love your commentary lol


im walking there next year

Well even if you dont have a bike by then Im hoping to have a van go down with my gear and a pit bike, so you could always catch a ride with that.

[Sidewinder]

yea i was meant to have a van to but everything has gone up the shit atm

[Thani-B]

yea i was meant to have a van to but everything has gone up the shit atm

Ah well you have a year to sort things out before the next one..

[idleidolidyll]

Brrrrr!!! Just viewing these makes me shiver all over!

................XJ600 rider, crazy drunk , stoned outta brain or just plain old crazy?................the scooter was never gonna make it, not with 2" ground clearance...................3 up? these guys were great entertainment but ultimately; failures.........................

[idleidolidyll]

But wait, there's more!

..............the running race. Yes, that's Raj in 2nd place being beaten by a girl..............Sheik Mohammed el Fukhed on the Hogly...................suasage gobblers comp: the mighty GN250 must have handled like shit with that weight distribution.................swap bikes, maybe that'll work. Oh yeah, you sit on the back short girl: Thani apparently not much of one....................Oh yeah, Carver on front and Raj on the back; aint they a sweet couple and that Raj is an expert sausage gobbler too!.....................

[idleidolidyll]

.....................The famous KB Tuggers in competition: without doubt the biggest tuggers at the rally, hell, they even pulled over a bunch of tough guys and then had a massive group hug afterward...........................one of them's a poser; guess who..........

[idleidolidyll]

...................KB Tugger Team continued..................I think Thani added perhaps 3ft/lb of torque but certainly improved the attractiveness index of the group; naked woulda been better but no chick seemed to want the headlights in public on that weekend. That said, I'm not sure Thani was prettier than Raj, Raj was trying very very hard......................that opposition who fell over; dunno if it was the power or the ecstasy, perhaps they were just, well,,,, spent...............shot # 5, if they hadn't won this would constitute a poser methinks............thani excepted, the skinniest bloke was chosen to yell and scream at the team...............

[idleidolidyll]

.....................world famous in his own lunchtime! ladies and gentlemen, i present Carver, rightly proud of his Hamiltron bridge stunt.......................the burnout com was tough to shoot but this angle looked most exciting. from the other side it was all smoke and no bike....................dunno who the gal on front is but pretty gals should always be snapped by lecherous old men; it's a rule!......................Korumba the morning after the night before, BRRRRRR!!!.....................

[idleidolidyll]

almost done folks and folkesses, there's hundreds more but I can't post em all:


......................Mike Old, Drury Tyres, taking advantage of Beemers heated handgrips...................alcohol and motorcycles; a match made in the depths of hell?, I bet there were lots of potential shots just like this all over camp.......................the beemer tried to say how cold it was but the flashing temp guage said it was COLDER than -5 that Sunday morning!.......................thanks to the bacon and eggs team, a happy crew working hard all weekend to bring us the grease we needed.........................

[Cheshire Cat]

It's like I'm on LSD!!! :clap: :lol:

[Sidewinder]

It's like I'm on LSD!!! :clap: :lol:

[kit]

8 of us came up from the deep south, me from Invercargill and a few more from up the road.... we had a fantastic rd trip, I just got back today. The cold kiwi was a excellent organised rally, plenty of entertainment and a fantastic site.
A lot of fun had by all! Will post a pic or 2 when i get organised.

That's impressive that you made the effort to get up here, especially with the number of rallies available to you in the South.
I'm hoping to get in a couple of yours this year.
Still trying to get home from the Cold Kiwi. Three Bluebird days in a row up the mountain and the trout fishing has been pretty good too. LG - Life's Good.:woohoo:

[Morcs]

LG alrite!!!! we rode back to picton on the sunday then sorta meandered our way home over 3 days on tuesday we were all (HMMM we dont wanna go home :cry:) We all just had such a fkn excellent time! fantastic weather (except for the first day) what more could one want? BIKE, good company and fine weather! we had it all:yes:
You will have to come down, I would recommend the woodstock rally near hokitika at the end of jan, great ride and scenery (and fishing) which ever direction you come from! Unless you can make it to the burt monroe.... it has to be done at least once

[Thani-B]

I think Thani added perhaps 3ft/lb of torque but certainly improved the attractiveness index of the group; naked woulda been better but no chick seemed to want the headlights in public on that weekend.

No lol I was definitely not drunk enough for that. And Im not a ginga, he'd already stolen the limelight anyway, wandering around with no pants on... lol

My other daughter got her licence on Monday and rode the Kat down to Taupo on Thursday then on to Waiouru. Rode up the track as if she had ridden it every day must be that MX riding she does at her school.

Great Post Holy Roller - the sound track is priceless Mate - ROFLMAO - "Get ya clothes off Girl" "Thats my Daughter you're talking about" "Ohhhhhhh Fuck" - followed by, as the clip says, 100,000 apologies, lol

- for those of you who haven't met Holy Roller, you must be a healthy 6'3" and not scrawny? What a total classic! Thanks for sharing.

It was also fabulous to see all the Marshalls and others get in behind the scooter and see it to the top - thats the ColdKiwi spirit alright
