If you don't know what this ride is about I suggest you have a look at the thread further down titled "nba" which will tell you what we have planned.
Phil, Colin and I are not quite ready to post this ride on the calendar. But we have been doing some work on likely costs and now need an indication of who is in or out. This is NOT a commitment from you to do the ride, it will let us know possible numbers so we can sort out accomodation and the jet boats,
Friday 24 September overnight in Inglewood
Forrestal lodge (where we stayed last year on the TTTTT) approx $50.00 per head
Saturday we will guide you over some fantastic roads to get to Wanganui (that will include going to the Bridge to Somewhere)
Saturday 25 September overnight in Wanganui
For now we are thinking of the Top 10 Holiday Park (this is where the prices depend on numbers and whether you want a motel unit or a 6 berth cabin so lets say approx $30 to $60 per night.
Sunday 26 September
Jetboat from Pipiriki to Bridge to Nowhere (and that is a return trip - even for you BMW owners...) $110.00 per head (that includes a discount that Phil has managed to negotiate). The return trip is 4 hours and we plan to be back at Pipiriki by 2.00pm leaving plenty of time to ride home in daylight (daylight saving will have started by then I think).
So rough costs for accomodation and the boat works out at around $200.00.
Are you keen, please reply to this thread if you are.
Yes you could do just the ride and not the jet boat or you could meet us early in Wanganui and just do the jet boat bit.
