      Sort of, we were advised to not have badges on the first one but thanks to Mrs Cowboyz and Allflex, we will be selling ear tags, yep i said ear tags with 1st anual Apiti scamper printed on them for a gold coin donation.
      Great key rings or buy two and you have a pair of ear rings
      Pretty original eh

      That is a decidingly rural Manawatu type marketing gimmick.
      Hope they are Green, the Manawatu colours?

      Good idea and could be a unique point in years to come.

      Well my plans to go to the March Hare have been scuttled by work requiring me to spend next week out in the Chathams but the good side of that is I should be home in time to join you guys for this event.
      Now just got to decide what bike to bring....

      The Welly R.A.T group are going to make this their monthly ride too

      We asked Motorad to support us, ...........but they declined!!!!!!!!

      The flyer is attached to the opening post and on the home page, if you are able and willing to print a couple off and get them up down there that would be great!!
