Woodstock Rally

[scumdog]

Any KBers heading to the Woodstock rally near Hokitika next weekend?

Chrissy-Bimbo and I plan on leaving on the Friday after work and stopping at Hawea or if it's a good ride maybe at Makarora.

Probably leave Big River Town somewhere between 5 and 6 pm and head up through Beaumont -Raes Junction to Cromwell and stop for a bite there.

Might bring a hairy Kraut on a BMW with us.

One day we will be able to do all those wonderful southisland rallies, but for now child rearing is the priority, but please post your adventures and photos so we can drool in the meantime!.
The south island scenery is so different to the north island eh!

If I could.....I surely would.
But I have to go to Gisborne instead
In a car, it is so far
Even with a right shoe of lead.
(Where did that crap come from?!)

If you meet a guy there called Drew who lives in Hoki and rides a mint old '70s 500 Suzuki - say Gidday for me.

Okee-doke, I'll watch out for all Drews from Hoki and pass on you salutations - and a pathetic excuse why you didn't front up :laugh:

' Manu on the blue SV SuzyQ on a silver Gsx750 and Glen on the Blue/black Busa will be there '

The 'Manu on the blue SV SuzyQ on a silver Gsx750' bit had me puzzled for a bit - until I realised what a comma after 'blue SV' would do to the sentence! :ride:

Where are you staying at Hawea, I should really be cuttin firewood as Im going to Alaska for the winter but a blast up the coast would be nice, Its been 3 weeks since I was over there and Im getting withdrawl symptons, What bike should I take, It would have to be the Hog or the CBR. Duz the hairy BMW rider cum from Papatowai. You 2 guys on the sporty wont travel fast so I could keep up riding the camel. Cheers Toddy

[hondav2]

R U going home via Haast. I was gonna go to Dunners for the HOG club meeting and ride on Sunday but woodstock appeals. Weather might be OK as well.

I've no idea where we may be staying, Crissy-Bimbo and I play it by ear, i.e. not much planning, IF the weather is good and we get away in time we may stay at the Makarora cabins (I think they still exist) but other than that we've no real plan.
Yup, the hairy BMW guy is the one and same from Tahakopa which is not far from Papatowai.

Our return trip is semi-planned for via the centre of the island (Twizel etc) but if the weather is good on the Coast we might consider returning that way.

[hondav2]

Is his name Hans, met him at Vincent 2 years back, A german couple serviced there bike at work and they stayed a week with him. She had a nice BUM. Will keep in touch. We are having a bikers BBQ on thursday night , Im keen so will c if anyone else wants to go. Cheers Toddy

Gidday all,

Great to hear the interest. in short the weather is gonna be awesome - a big high which will give blue ski days on the coast until at least tuesday next week... now you simply cannot beat those west coast road if you get a riding gift like that.

Been at the pub all night with the club members, the site is ready to go, all the amenities are up - live bands are ready and the interest has been HUGE, this will be the best and biggest rally we have hosted in the last three years running.

Looking forward to seeing all you Kb'ers there, scumdog from down south, dangerous and his troop from chch and it would be cool to see some representation from down fiordland way - 50 are riding up from invercargill.

CU all at the rally - going over there tomorrow avo to finish the final prep and settle in for a 48hr club party

Havn't got a KB shirt so i will throw on me Aprillia Racing one - say gidday

Cheers
Feral1

Come on Scummy , time to confess so that your mates dont get the blame, took 8.5 hours to get home, rode with Hans to Hawea, he was going to have a wash in the lake when I left him. Never got to meet Chrissy Bimbo as she had flaked. C yous all at the Vincent next weekend. Cheers Toddy

If what you are saying is what I think you are, its gonna cost someone one way or other. :shit:

[hondav2]

He shaved off all his facial hair , swapped riding gear and bikes with a guy from Winton and got home OK.

[Suzi Q]

Awesom Ride over the Lewis Pass - great weather and great scenery. Good rally site, good bands, good food - love those lamb shanks!! Met some interesting people - Scumdog and Feral included - hope ypu got the camera working feral, pity it crapped out at the wet tshirt comp!
Did anyone else see the naked fire dancer? Was it male or female - I thought female.
Great ride home but I ws knackered after only 3 hours sleep, but would do it all over again. One of the best rallys I have been to. :sunny:

[scumdog]

My lips are sealed. :sly:

Decided it would be best to go home "over the hill"

Great ride home via Springfield, Night at Methven then on through the Lindis, Alex and home. Covered 1,500+ km.
Best run was 160km for 8.3 litres..and that included the Lindis.

Trip up was great, scared myself a few times, scraped bothe pegs on the road at different times, never a drop of rain, met some top-notch KBers at the site (probably due to no lunch or tea and a lot of wine they might not think the same about me!!) but caught up with Toddy, Manu-boy, Suzy-Q and Dangerous plus one or two other whose name eludes me (too much wine yer'onour) (edit) Hell, can't forget Feral!! - just happened to be leaving the site to go to the pub and was yarning to one of the guys at the gat (who use to be from around here) telling him about the trip up, as soon as I said I spent the night at Makarora this guy chips in "you'll be Scumdog then?" - it was Feral, very perceptive dude!

Never met R1 (Aaron) and believe he never fronted, pity, we could have exchanged 'notes' :msn-wink:

More late when I've unpacked.

P.S. Great pics from you other guys, top stuff!!

[hondav2]

You forgot to tell the troops about the small misshap at the bridge and what did the Boss say Cheers Toddy

[scumdog]

You forgot to tell the troops about the small misshap at the bridge and what did the Boss say Cheers Toddy

Ahh yes, "the bridge mishap", was following Hans the Hun and came up to one of those 4,000 or so One Lane Bridge Please Give Way bridges on the Coast (funny how they all have the same name) and Hans pulls out into the middle of the lane like the bridge is clear, me thinks "great, we don't have to stop this times" and start gunning it, next thing Hans veers to the left just before getting onto said bridge and stops - just as I too notice the hitherto unseen cage coming towards us.

I hit the anchors hard and managed to stop short of Hans O.K. but of course was slightly out of balance and when I put my left foot down I rolled my ankle on the edge of the seal and down went Sporty, C.B. and me.
:doh:

After a mad scramble to our feet and a bit of grunting we got Sporty upright again, a quick check showed NO damage at all!! I guess the saddle-bags must have saved it. :2thumbsup

Moral: ALWAYS check for yourself the bridge is clear - don't guess!!

B.T.W.,Hans just sat on his bike looking from mirror to mirror trying to figure out where we had gone! one second we were about 10 metres behind him, next second we vanished!

And the Boss Toddy? Haven't been to work yet so keep my fingers crossed eh!!! :unsure:

[toads]

Glad to see you guys had a good time, the weather looked great, I've just gotta get down to the south island one of these days, as for you and your speeding ticket scumdog, I spose it will be rather costly, I read the bridge incident with interest, I have a habit of taking things like that for granted if Pete is riding ahead of me, particularly if I'm tired etc, so thanks for sharing that little story, I'll be sure to double check all bridges!.

[dangerous]

as for you and your speeding ticket scumdog, I spose it will be rather costly
Ummm... actualy Toads when a copper gets pulled for the likes of speeding the issuing copper dosent fill out a speding fine, but there is another form to be filled out which i would expect goes to there boss, and if the boss gets to many of them, then words a more than likely swaped..... well thats what I'm lead to believe ;) but in this suituation I believe when the issuing officer saw the shiny metal thing that was decreatly shoved under his nose (while looking for the licence) the reply was "fuk..... get out of here" so costly....... na, try perks of the job:thud:

[scumdog]

Yup, for Dangerous it's free nails, for me...... :shifty: :msn-wink:
