Team Delis (Mr and Mrs Monstaman) will be there with bells on (and helmets) :yes:.We are gonna ride over to QT and take the boat over or maybe on the way back depending at the time etc.

Toddy lemme know if you need any help to setup and that may influence our plans which way we go.

Ellen is riding Lou Tou and I will be on Suzy so we can't carry much unless we do a couipla runs in with the truck and trailer etc.

Fine weather please!!! :woohoo:

Since we've done our Sth trip for the summer we won't be able to make this one :bye:

But, I strongly recommend this to anybody, It's a great laid back social weekend in the middle of some awesome riding country, roads & tracks to suit all tastes. If you are planning a summer tour down that way definitely schedule it so you can make the Rally.

Cheers
Clint

Really looking forward to this, Struan see if you can convince bro to come down too, tell him to leave his excuse book behind.

[Trials Rider]

I just got a weekend pass from the boss, I think she is looking forward to a peaceful weekend, filled out the excuse book with silly pictures, I listened to the voices in my head and they said I must go so jobs on.

Ring you later Struan

[Howie]

Sorry I'm out for this one, due to leave and $$ i'm only going to be able to hit the top half of the south island. Hope it goes well for all those going.

[hondav2]

Yep still a few beds left , weather will be perfect again :woohoo:

[rogerh]

I was pretty keen to come, but a few things at work are conspiring against me this year.... Pissed off, but my bike is still in Christchurch, but needs moving back to Hamilton this weekend, so I am sure I can find some detours on the way. Will certainly make an effort for next year, as I have a few places I am keen to see down that way, and I am too much of a wuss to do them in winter.

Have fun all.

[Monstaman]

One more sleep to go :woohoo:

Gruvey weekend all round, great weather etc so happy as, pics to follow later.

[Monstaman]

Greetings gruvers, sorry for the late reply, just had the 5 day Round The Block with the WMC, 2400 km in 5 days, wot a blast.

We got pissed on, blown, baked and blasted ..

So, Dust To Mavora fukengruven rally, we had great weather, great food, great mates, great riding and all in all a bloody good fun time.

Didn't bin the bike but had a coupla moments, we rode on Friday from Wanaka - Queesntown - Kingston - Five Rivers - Mossburn, Southern Mavora entrance - Mavora Lodge

HUGE feed of venison and assorted salads etc, ate like Kings and Queens.

After monsta breaky on Saturday morning four soldiers rumbled off to the South Arm of Manapouri, we also turned off and went to the pylons road to Percy Saddle.

330km in the saddle and great day with stunning weatehr was had by all, that place is truly stunning and certainly makes you appreciate what we have access to.

Saturday night consisted of piss drinking and lie telling after a monsta bar b q etc, shite was talked till about 1.00 am, good giggles all round.

Sunday we all packed up, we rode into the Mavora Lakes then back out, down the Von Valley to Mt Nicholas then over to Walter Peak to catch the TSS Earnslaw over to Queenstown then back home to Wanaka.

Thanks to Toddy for a great rally, will be there again next year although there was chatter about bringing it further norf ...

So you went to the head of the Mararoa, see the solar powered toilet?

Up the Widen burn to The Forks Huts is fun but bloody lumpy.

Look forward to some pics.
