Hi all,

Just found out that Toast Martinborough is on this Sunday, this will mean there'll be a crap load of traffic on the hill and Martinborough will be a write-off!:angry:

I hope it rains!

Miserable bastard! Hope it rains next time you want to go somewhere that doesn't involve a motorcycle! :doh:

Miserable bastard!

Yeah, I am!!!

Normally I wouldn't mind although I'd planned out in my head to go over to Martinborough on Sunday and enjoy the sunshine and this is going to cripple my plans.

Further it appears there is no room at the place we were staying so I'm screwed too, serves me right for waiting to see what the weather was like.

We did the Saturday excursion thang to The Fush. Fantastic weather in the Wairarapa compared with town. Bugsplat tagged along with us to Castlepoint. He probably didn't know his R1 could go that slow...

We've just got back from the Rapa, decided to head over to Masterton this morning and have lunch with my folks, departed from there at 3ish heading out via the water tower road to Gladston and then through to Martinborough.

Got breath tested just out of Martinborough, I doubt that the machine even took a reading cause the cop just stuck in in through the visor.

Then back over the hill and home!

Not continuously!

In fact only, on race days. Like the 27th.
