[bugjuice]

That's why entry is in advance. There will be no entries on the day to prevent undesirables trying to crash the party!

[texmo]

im intrested in stunt skills but not the drags any way I could pay $30 for stunting????

[R6_kid]

just a quick question to clear this up - we spend the day at the track doing our own thing (stunts/drags whatever) and then stay behind to watch 'dragwars' in the evening? (if we wish to do so?)

either way im their, just thought we should make it clear...

...
I don't know if there are dragwars happening that evening. IF there are then you can stay and watch them, but you will have to pay whatever fees they charge for that. Prices quoted here are for the track from 8.30 to 4.30 and have nothing to do with any events that are happening in the evening.

[texmo]

Whats so special about gareth I had a question too :'(

[Qkchk]

Qkchk needs some practise on her flying starts.............. count me in for the dragstrip......

[Riff Raff]

Give me a chance - my PMs are running hot!!!

[texmo]

Give me a chance - my PMs are running hot!!!
Is that a yes or a no.

[Riff Raff]

Is that a yes or a no.
I will get back to you shortly. Need to consult with WT when he gets home from work. Stay tuned...

[texmo]

you didnt seem like the whipped type to me riff, whats going on?

[cowpoos]

NO SCOOTERS ALOUD....NONE....NOT ONE.....NADA......ZILCH... :spudgrr:

[White trash]

It's up and running.

There'll be more than a couple of gurus in attendance for tips and advice, mostly free. Unfortunately two of the highest class riders wont be there which suits me to the ground as it makes me look better.

Role up role up, be part of the first ever dedicated (legal) stunt day in NZ!

[loosebruce]

You know i'm in bro, Riff can i pay you off $5.00 a week, shot thanks. Need to hunt down a new chain and rear sprocket too me thinks, spesh if trashy nicks off with me bike.

[larriken]

I am going to cry!

[badblackbuell]

There with bells on!
An opportune time to see if the dirty ole mule can really launch.
Good chance for some skiddies too... Not the undies type with any luck!!

[Riff Raff]

I am going to cry!
Sorry Andy - you know you could always find yourself a new best friend!!!

Don't worry mate, if this goes well there will be more and you can choose the date!

[Riff Raff]

Just to clarify things folks. This will be done properly, which means you will have to wear safety gear, there will be scrutineering of your bikes and you will have to sign an indemnity form - just like any other track day. There will also be an ambulance at the track.

Oh yes, looks like there will be a few prizes too!

[ZeroIndex]

I will definitely make it for Spectator... and bring my 1337 camera skills with me LOL

[Zed]

[aff-man]

what is the latest date you can register... will have to see if i can get some dosh together, If so i'll be in....

[El Dopa]

Family pass for me.

Let me know what the payment details are.

[busadayz]

I will be keen for a few runs down the quarter.How will this work in with the guys wanting to do a bit of stunt action, and will the quarter mile times be timed properly? Pay on the day or you need cash up front.
Got a few guys probably keen on it.

[White trash]

Hey busadayz.

Drag racing and stunting sessions will be run at different times throughout the day. Timing will be handled by Champion Dragways Xmas tree and timing equipment. In the interest of keeping it sipmle, I'd imagine we'll run grudge match style racing with both bikes leaving the line at the same time.

Entry will be by pre payment only as we don't want 150 bikes turning up on the day we haven't counted on.

Hope this helps.

[SlashWylde]

Wicked!! I'll definately be in for the drag racing. Wanna see what the VN will do down the 1/4 mile.

Sweet fuck all mate, if it makes it to the finish :Pokey:

Larriken = Dick, oh well more pratice for me to look better before you show up and steal the show.

[Hoon]

Regarding dragwars, is there any requirement for WOF/Rego. i.e. can I bring my race only bike??

[White trash]

You're welcome to bring your race bike Hoon.

[ZeroIndex]

Do spectators need to prepay?

[Riff Raff]

Do spectators need to prepay?
spectators will be payment on the day otherwise it's just too difficult to keep track of and would require printing of tickets etc.

awesome :) i was hoping to hear that. Will there be any KB clothing items for sale on the day?

[willy_01]

hey this sounds very cool 2 questions 1 what saftey gear do I have to have and do i have to have a licence ie ive only got my learners but got a bigger than 250cc bike

[Riff Raff]

KB clothing is SpankMe's department. He's currently taking order for clothing at the moment. See here: http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/index.php?page=clothing

[dss3]

Just posting so I get a reminder to pay miss Raff when I get paid this week, before it all gets spend on sweet cold double browns.... mmmm droool.

As you were...

[Riff Raff]

hey this sounds very cool 2 questions 1 what saftey gear do I have to have and do i have to have a licence ie ive only got my learners but got a bigger than 250cc bike

Safety gear - as per track days - leather or cordura gear for drags. I'm just looking into the legalities from my position as organiser for those doing stunts. I understand it is harder to do stunts in full gear, but there will definately have to be protective gear worn - full face helmet, back protector, knee and elbow pads, boots that come up above the ankles etc.

As for being a learner on a bigger bike - this event is not on a public road. If you choose to ride your bike to and from the track then that is at your own risk.

[aff-man]

Hey riff what the wife say about paying $30 for just doing the stunts not the drags...

What sort of scruiteneering does the bike have to go through??

Will probably want to take off as much as possible....

[White trash]

Aff man, there's more time dedicated to stunting than anything else. More than you'll know what to do with in fact.

$60 stands and that's a bargain buddy.

Sweet... I'll start saving....

Hey you got any contacts to know where i can get a cheapish large rear sprocket?? Preferably a gixxer but if i can get a blank one i can get it drilled.

Jono dont forget chances are you'll need a new chain with the rear sprocket too!

[aff-man]

Jono dont forget chances are you'll need a new chain with the rear sprocket too!

Why is that?? If i get a 525 sprocket shouldn't the chain fit on??

[White trash]

The chain will most likely be a little short. Depends on how big the rear sprocket is. I got mine from Motomail.

And I'm not replacing the chain, I'm making the axle holes in the swingarm bigger so I can move the wheel forward more. True trash!

Yeh true... I only want to go up 3 teeth or so, so as not to make road riding too interesting....

You guys gonna be giving tips?

Dribbly Bottom.......ewwwww!

:drinkup:

[aff-man]

Hey Jono, see if you can sweet-talk that piker CK into coming along, twould be good to see him there!

First of all he can't do stunts.........

and if I get him to bring his wife he is sure to crash .......

I'll try talk him into it.

[Zed]

First of all he can't do stunts.........Yes but at least he tries, and that's the qualfication for taking part in the day i reckon! Even if he came along and had a goal to learn to lift the front effortlessly in 1st or clutching it up in 2nd, i'm sure he'd have a ball!

What are your goals for the day Aff? :wari:


and if I get him to bring his wife he is sure to crash .......

I'll try talk him into it.Lol, sounds like you want him to crash?? Nah, he only crashed that once didn't he and that was prolly because he hadn't been hard out riding regularly on weekends and then attended a track day at Puke, out of form. ;)

[loosebruce]

What are your goals for the day Aff? :wari:




Not looping it would be a good start, infact i thnk that goes for all of us :crazy:

[aff-man]

I'll see what he says....

Hopefully hooking second or reaching balance point in first so not having to ..


What safety mods if any are you guys gonna make to your bikes??

[texmo]

Duct tape, works everytime...

[White trash]

Big news!!

The bloke who (indirectly) inspired this whole thing is now able to attend! Welcome aboard mate, this shit's gonna get real interesting now.

[Big Dave]

I note that todays sydney harold features a report of a zx1200 rider fatality from chucking wheelies (on the 2nd day he had the bike).
be careful out there.

[Riff Raff]

Yep - we'll have none of that happening, otherwise you'll have to face the wrath of Aunty Riff Raff, and a very big needle!

It was eating me up on the inside! I had to come! I can't believe how fast you guys got going on organising this. Wicked! To be honest though, the thought of Riff and a big needle has put me off so I'm not coming now! :shit:

I'd be more afraid of WT's little needle if i was you........

Be good to meet ya and get some tips.

[Riff Raff]

I can't believe how fast you guys got going on organising this.
That's because I decided to organise it. If I'd left it to WT it just wouldn't have happened.

That's funny, most blokes get excited at that.

Having never been to a track before, what standards does the bike have to meet for it to pass scrutineering?? Ta

[Riff Raff]

Having never been to a track before, what standards does the bike have to meet for it to pass scrutineering?? Ta

Scrutineering of bike involves checking brakes, tyres, fork seals, and checking for any leaks etc. Basically your bike needs to be 'road-worthy' so make sure it is before bringing it down. Gear check will be done at the same time so you need to be wearing your gear and have your helmet and gloves with you.

Hmmm well then the Jimmy's honda is definatley out :whistle: :whistle:

I asked a quezzy earlier about this "road worthy" cause if i can't afford a set of old fairings i'll probably want to get there early and take just about everything off the bike that it won't need to run.

[White trash]

OK people, you're not aware of how much actual works gone into getting this as far along as it is now. Riff raff's put everything into this and now we're asking you to put your money where your mouths are.

PM either myself or Riff raff with at least your intent to attend.

Maximum respect to the guys that are paid up and ready to go.

We need a heel of alot more riders, not just for the stunting but the drag racing too. All you racers should be chomping at the bit to improve your starts.

There's also some great sponsors donating some wicked prizes already, details will follow but this day is shaping up to be legendary already.

So get PMing!!!

[cowpoos]

:Offtopic: is there going to be hot chicks in bikinis holding umbrela's....and a wet T-shirt comp afterwards ?

I'm just waying up whether its worth me coming up there to teach you kids a lesson or two!

I'm just waying up whether its worth me coming up there to teach you kids a lesson or two!If you want to be in a wet t-shirt competition you go ahead! Of course all of us KB chicks are pretty damned hot - dunno if any will be wearing bikinis tho.

And nice of you to offer some education, but to be honest I don't think anyone is really interested in Cowpat Recognition 101 or the Bovine Flatulance Connoisseur Club.

[FROSTY]

You guys are going on about getting to practice your stunting.
Now you have a place and a time
Without you guys n gals putting money where mouth is this kinda event can't go ahead.

[GIXser]

HEy Raff/Trash are you going to list the members coming to this ( or i missed it, maybe already posted) , is there a limit to numbers etc etc,, yeah i know questions questions -----

Yea nice Frosty, maybe everyone thinks this is gonna be a show of sorts, it's not it's for anyone to get out and get practice, in a controlled enviroment with some knoweldgable people around to lend a hand, so even if you can only pull a little minga get out there, no one is gonna give anyone shit, gotta start somewhere and this is the best place for it.

[Croft]

Count me in for a family pass please.

[Big Dave]

Had my crayons out anyway.
I reckon something like this RR.

[Big Dave]

Thats fuckin brilliant. You are defiantly the man.

steady - it's my gig.

[Big Dave]

and which logo? I'm having a cartoon night.

[White trash]

Mr Cohen, you've once again out done yourself.

Loving that poster to bits. And probably the first of the logos, not quite sure. Bloody cool anyway.

Wouldn't it make more sense to have sheep on bikes though? Anyways, good effort. That makes it 2 beers I owe ya.

[Riff Raff]

Yep that poster is bloody awesome. Love it. Thanks for that Dave.

And of the logos I prefer the second one.

[larriken]

Awesome poster, liking it alot! I'm with WT on the planes, and who says a squadron has to be planes! My bikes been known to leave the ground every now and then.:blink:

[Riff Raff]

Folks I'm limiting the number of stunters to 30 to ensure enough track time. So far I have 15 confirmed. Once we reach that number those that express interest will be contacted if one of the confirmed pulls out.

[Drunken Monkey]

Folks I'm limiting the number of stunters to 20 to ensure enough track time. So far I have 15 confirmed. Once we reach that number those that express interest will be contacted if one of the confirmed pulls out.

For the length of time you have the track hired, you could run over 100 racers and stunters.

We have hired Meremere before, we got around 60 cars and 2 bikes. Including running around helping out, I got as many runs on my bike and in my car as I could be bothered with (more than I could count).

[Streetwise]

Any wellingtonians going to this event????

[aff-man]

CLARIFICATION

Exactly who is the scared sheep squadron....

Hopefully getting some race fairings so wanted to know if anyone would take offence to a few decals??

[Big Dave]

Yeah - just doodling - and i'll make those changes you pm'd me later tonight.
Also 'have it' - for the logo too. that lot was just 'doodling' a bugs bunny moment.

later - I'm going for a ride right now. just got the luggage fitted.

Mark, me and Riff raff are currently in discussions. I say "let the cunts ride naked, who cares" she's like "We've got to be responsible hosts"

These are my thoughts. Proper riding jacket leather or textile, if you must be a hero (like me) then a body armour jacket beneath a sweatshirt will do. Above the ankle boots. Probably either riding pants or kevlar reinforced jeans or two pair of jeans or some shit.

Remeber people, this is an ORGANISED EVENT, someone always stands to get their wrists slapped.

Don't even think about trying to take me on sonny boy! You don't want scary Aunty Riff Raff to make an appearance. Ask Jimmy - he's been on the receiving end of her a few times!

As for safety gear requirements - will put that up tonight after work.

[enigma51]

I say "let the cunts ride naked,
How about the girlies only! :banana:

[Zed]

As for safety gear requirements - will put that up tonight after work.I think it's up to the organiser/s as to what the safety gear requirements will be, I just ask that we don't make it too strict or else it will discourage some from coming. It seems that there are still quite a number of KBers who don't have a *full* set of gears but who do own the absolute necessities of helmet, boots, and gloves. I suppose in their minds they've never needed full leathers/cordura for the type of riding they do...might be time for them to have a bit of a re-think though? :spudwhat:

[SwanTiger]

I have everything bar riding pants and prefer it that way (I wear jeans instead), so I think, and its probably biased, that top end armour, gloves, boots and of course a helmet should be the only safety gear.

Don't know if I can be bothered taking part. Need a bigger freak'n bike.

But seriously, what is the point in making it a nanna event! Make a minimum safety gear recommendation and if people don't obey it then they must pay for the ambo time or something along those lines, should they crash.

Some people may like hurting themselves and acheive great satisfaction from it, so what is the point in disatisfying their needs? Let the bastards die if they must.

mmmmmmmm Gear, Gear, Gear. It never fails to get people upset. I'm a freewill kide of guy, but I do realise that if shit hits the fan at an event............bang, there goes events like this in the future!

At an organised event you do have to have a minimum requirement. What that is, hey, who knows! Here's my two cents.

Gloves, mx, leather, michael jackson shiny white ones, as long as they are gloves. A helmet, for sure. Boots, not shoes (I do admit that I cringe seeing guys ride in sneakers). Trousers, mmm, hard one. I don't wear leather pants when farting around doing wheelies, I hate them and it is just plain horrible. I do wear dragging jeans and knee pads though (sometimes). Leather or armoured jacket, yep, a must for an event.

That's my thoughts anyways!

alright anybody wanna lend me some gear then? please????

Oh yeah, I can't wait!

But I find it really disturbing when the water trickles out the other ear. I think you stuck your tongue in so far that my brain was pushed out. Would certainly explain a lot!

That's ok honey, it's all healed now. But thanks anyway.

[aff-man]

So do we have an updated list for who's coming and doing what etc etc etc??

Oh and how are the drags going to work?? Is it sign up on the day or do we have to "book a slot" or something?

[Riff Raff]

Folks I notice in various other threads people mention that they are coming to this event, but I haven't had any confirmation. Remember there are no entries on the day - I need to have your money by 31 March at the very latest. PM me now to reserve your place and get account details.

Note: Spectator payment will be on the day. It's only those who are doing stunts or drags that need to prepay.

Confirmed attending:

Stunts and drags:
Me and White Trash, Larriken, Mouse, Loose Bruce, Death_Inc, Sam B, Drunken Monkey, DSS3, Zed, Gixzer, Juzzer, avrflr, aff-man, Fizzerman, Lycurgen, Speedmedic, Wozza, Texmo, Bugjuice, Patch, 2much, ukbandit, gareth_d, Swanman, Motoracer, Rossi Gal

Drags only:
busadayz, Draco, QkChk, Girlygirl, justsomeguy, Darrell Peri, Dogwat, Cajun + 2?, CaN x 2,

And those who I'm not sure which category they're going into:
Stifarms

And still waiting on confirmation from the Welly lot who need their arms twisting: Cowpoos, Jimbo600, Deano, Flame, NC - anyone else I've missed?

If I've missed anyone off these lists please let me know. It's getting a bit hard to keep track with the number of PMs I've had. If you have PM'd me and I haven't replied please PM again.

Anyone who is keen to help out on the day please let me know as well. I will need some marshalls and people to help out generally. Thanks to those that have offered assistance, and those who have been working behind the scenes. In particular a HUGE thanks needs to go to Big Dave for all his input. Thanks mate.

[White trash]

I can't believe there's so few people want to drag race and have a bit of a lark. Got to be some grudge matches out there.

How about Fishslayer V's Sensei?

C'mon you dicks, get your shit together and get registered.

[Big Dave]

In particular a HUGE thanks needs to go to Big Dave for all his input. Thanks mate.

You're welcome. Used some influence because I think it's a great idea and you are to be commended.
Get this stuff off the back streets and on the track with an ambo etc is where it belongs.

As before, Stretch Lupton has said he'll come down and put on a bit of a KR show and a brief chat with young Mr Pratt at AMPS seems hopeful that Sean King might be available for a few of his mind boggling tricks too. To be confirmed.

We prolly need to nominate a demo event timetable to give them and publicise.

Doh - I'll fix that poster right now too.


So - if you are happy with this, I can post a URL for a B&W 150dpi A4 print file that KBers could download, print out and stick on their bike shop notice board for eg. - if you are chasing more bodies.

I have nominated 1400 hrs as the demo/show time. - Any obs?

[boomer]

i'll get my ass in to gear and get you some pennies; Is it ok to invite some work mates(Bikers??)

Who can turn down a days tuition with White Trash.. i'll be teh wheelie queen of NZ afterwards :apumpin:

1400 sounds fine and dandy to me. Thanks heaps mate.

[White trash]

Can't you do a wheelie in the rain mate?

To get a rain date, we would have to have paid the track hirage a long way in advance, which we obviously haven't done.

Payments received so far fall a long way short of track hireage.

The good news is, that if the weather does turn to custard, we can cancel and book another day.

Rain = rolling burnouts in the wet......

Well that's what happens when i try doing wheelies anyway... sometimes it happens when the front is a little off the ground:blink: :blink:

[DEATH_INC.]

Maybe +3 for drags and 1 for the stunts.....I'll confirm asap.....(2 kber's and 2 not + sam who I tald ya aboot) then I gotta get some bloody cash outta them :crazy:

[kickingzebra]

I might be keen... Finally have a bike good enough to crash and cost me heaps!! Have to see if we can afford it tho... Damn money tree isn't working right yet...

[larriken]

Hi Guys

I am helping someone can help me out. I need someone/s to do abit of filming for me at the Stunt Skills day on the 8th April. If you are going as a spectator/rider and have will be taking vid footage, could I use it? All tapes will be returned and I will hook anyone up with a copy of Chicks Dig Scars DVD for your help.

Main reason for this is a)my brother can't come up with me and he does all the filming when I am riding b) there is no way I am filming all day and missing out on riding! Yes, I am a greedy bugger! I will still get the camera out myself, but it's hard to focus on filming when you want to ride as well.

Your help will be much appreciated. Suitable footage from this will be used to edit a section on the very first NZ Stunt Day on Chicks Dig Scars Number Two! If your footage is used your name will appear in the credits as well.

PM me if you are keen.

Cheers

Andy

[Riff Raff]

Cool. I caught up with Sam last weekend at the AMC track day at Puke and he's really keen. Silly bugger thought he had to audition: - after some furious waving to attract my attention at the start he then did a mint wheelie from the dummy grid to the first corner, and several down the front straight on each pass, resulting in him getting a bollocking from the organisers!

[onearmedbandit]

Fuck this is almost worth the trip up north. Well actually it is worth the trip, just don't know if I can get the time.

[ZeroIndex]

Well, while most people are sleeping, I've been planning my 'run' up to the dragstrip, since I'll only be spectating (no i'm not trying to organize a mini-event from Hamilton to the dragstrip, as I'm leaving the night before, and sleeping at a friends place (farm off Springhill Rd). Might get him to come along and watch (on his farmbike hehehe)
I have no idea on how many km's extra this trip is gonna be as opposed to going up the silly SH1 or time difference, but my plan is to have fun...

Um, I'm suddenly wondering why I posted all of this... oh well, goodnight...

[Riff Raff]

Righto folks, only 10 more days to register your spot to participate in this event and pay your dollarroonies. Don't leave it til the last minute!

[froggyfrenchman]

out of intrest, does it seem like you are gonna get enough people to cover your costs?

[White trash]

Only just.

Bloody expensive business this putting on motorcycle events.

[froggyfrenchman]

Tell me about it... There's a chance i might see you up there. As a spectator this time. All depending on funds, that travling/acomodation/eating business is even more expensive than putting on bike events

[Vagabond]

Will come and spectate, out of practice being a sprotsbike rider!

[Riff Raff]

I've just had the worst moment of panic.... Been dealing with this guy called William at Champion Dragway - I'd already come to the conclusion that he was useless, but as the only person to deal with there I've had to grin and bear it. I don't know how many times I've rung him or emailed him, and my frequent requests for paperwork from him confirming booking etc have been met with yeah don't worry it's all confirmed.

Well today I got an email from the dragway to say he no longer worked there and when was my booking for???? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh. Thankfully I spoke to a very switched on lady by the name of Wendy who has placed our booking and will have contract out to me today. Unfortunately the price William quoted me for the track does not include the electronic timing - if we want that we'd have to find another $1,000 which aint going to happen. So timing is going to have to be done the old fashioned way with someone sitting in the tower and writing it down. I think we can cope with that.

Hoping to go down there in the next few days and make sure I've thought of everything and that there's no other surprises.

Feel sorry for Wendy - our track day isn't the only one William stuffed up, and she's got a huge task on her hands sorting out the mess. Thank goodness he hadn't booked someone else for the same day!

Rant over, now I can breathe again!

[Lazy7]

register me to race only. straight lines i might just be able to handle.

do i have to "register" or is saying i'm going to be there enough?

[loosebruce]

our track day isn't the only one William stuffed up

Old william aye, must be related to poo's, didn't think they let people out of the rappa into the real world.

Will put some coinagge through this week for ya Sue, cheers for your patience.

I knew it was getting bad down there froggy, but my god :shit: , there really needs to be an alternative route past the rappa, oh wait there is SH1, but that gets rid of the Welly KB crew and the tuka's, so something that goes right around the rappa, the rappa needs to be isolated. Just think if poo's got loose and started making little poo's around the country, that is assuming he hasn't already, i'm mighty suspect about texmo's upbringing.

I'm a poor student who hasn't seen an account in the black for over a year but I still manage to make it. :thud::thud:

We got an updated list ?? Methinks all those that have talked the talk need to be subtly reminded of the event.:mega: :mega:

[bugjuice]

I'm tryin to sort something out (really wanna), but it's just past the brassic point at the moment to add anything else to the already stretched budget..
Wouldn't just be the entry, but fuel, the oil needs a change, rear tyre is starting to wear thin etc etc. I just don't have few hundy spare that it'd cost me. If I can, I will.. soz sue. I'll be there to watch if I can't run

so....errr.....what are the numbers at the moment? how many more are needed?

[Riff Raff]

so....errr.....what are the numbers at the moment? how many more are needed?
Well if everyone who has registered pays (and I have some doubts about a couple of people), then I need probably another 3 or 4 stunters and or at least another 10 people doing drags. Would like to see more people doing the drags to make it competitive- still small numbers there. So comeon folks get yourselves registered to do drags.

so now that we have that sorted out will you please "Fuck off" and do some work, I have had a good offer on the shares, but I need you to actually do some work today, with the hope that some small effort from you will raise productivity of my modest portfoilo and I can buy a new dirt bike with the proceeds of my share sale.

Dunno the orientation of mere mere but lets hope its a down/up wind. A crosswind could become very interesting very quickly while doing wheelies hahahahah.

does someone want to volunteer to intercede with the weather god/goddess to ensure a good day for us? Please!

Been doing the "anti-rain" dance for the past week.....:wari:

Might have to sacrifice a goat though....:crazy:

Anyone got a goat??

[Dogwat]

to give you a idea. 11-13 secs will terminal @ 100 to 120mph. in the 10's terminal @ 130mph. but go to www.championdragstrip.co.nz (i think), and check on quals for Nationals. look at screaming eagles (Harleys and Buells) and Mod bikes, these are road going machines.

[Riff Raff]

OMG it's so close now. Hopefully once it's all over I can have a decent nights sleep again - and since my dreams have probably gone through every possible disaster happening on the day, hopefully the real thing will run smoothly.

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Just looked at the maps, looks like there's a bit of precipitation around, but we're sorta near the end of it so it should bugger off in a bit, start crossing things :Playnice:

[swanman]
