will be coming along to have a look. i have been trying to finish my bike for this meet but i have a funny feeling that it wont be done. Its under going some extensive development which is taking longer than expeceted and house renovations seem to get in the way also.

Someone from the auckland bucket group should know the details, they normally go down to it. - should be fun as the track looks in great condition (drove passed it couple of weeks ago)

We could have a North South challage (north island anyway), like the good old days..:2thumbsup

hey poorbastard

the next meeting is the 27/11/05 and if you want you can take my bike for a spin if ya want- im trying to get more people into buckets so it becomes a bigger sport cause it is running out of interest and we are loosing venues to race which is a pain in the arse!!

cheers,Glenn

Yet the heading of the thread is Taumaranui. There is already a Kaitoke thread I'm pretty sure. Oh yeah, I started it.
