Rally held at Wainui (opposite Akaroa) on Banks Peninsula last weekend. 75 people, 45 bikes, mostly commandos, some dominators and one or two mercury's and four older bikes.
A few pics of the older stuff, there was also an ES2 which i didn't get decent pic of.
First - a model 7, ridden down from upper SI, 12 hrs to do a 4 hr ride due to problems with some grafted on VW electrical bits, but arrived under its own steam and ran well all weekend.
Second - a very tidy Inter, ridden down and back from Upper NI without a hiccup.
Third - and by contrast ridden on the day ride only, an original beach racer bitsa. Allegedly Norton engine and girder forks, triumph wheels, harley gearbox, AJS frame.
A good time was had by all, possibly too good by some ... :drinknsin
