Anyone heading to the Jewel of the Pacific on Boxing Day? It has been a few years since I was last there and I feel the need for another fix. The usual 'few races then prowl the parks in search of interesting bikes'
Unfortunately not this year, after spending the last 6 years at it and racing the last 4 the organiser changed the rules requiring sidecars to compete at all rounds of the series or none at all, after trying to get a "dispensation" because of traveling from down here and being refused we made no plans to travel up After totally ignoring his own rules and allowing Sidecars which hadn't competed at round one to enter round 2 we have now been told a week out we're welcome to enter,it but it's to late and now to expensive
No, but we will enjoy looking at all the photos you'll take and post up here for our entertainment, especially all those interesting bikes in the field. Hint hint....
Don't forget to remove your BFTP patch if venturing into town for refreshments.
Don't forget to remove your BFTP patch if venturing into town for refreshments. I can remove all my clothes if they want. It is Christmas after all - in Wanganui - the Monte Carlo of NZ -
I can remove all my clothes if they want in that case you might find the velcro BFTP patch more comfortable and more descreet, unless you have had a BSC makeover, then you might need double sided tape.....
I'm tough. Staples will do
Yep, I'll be there. My 1st visit.
1st tip for Wangas... Don't eat the hotdogs. (Salmonella on a Stick)

goin down xmas arvo. I'll be going down too.....not biking...a nana nap after the big lunch...
We'll have to sort a meeting time and place, be good to actually meet a few of you
Sounds like a plan. Yorky... Prepare for all sort of weather. One time it went from brilliant sunshine to hail and back. The gutters were blocked with hailstones.
No Wangas this year, Will be heading to Taupo on Boxing day arvo, Taupo Road Race Spectacular on 27th and 28th. Taking my LC, TZR and Tyler's FXR. Tylers 1st big meeting, 60 or more Buckets entered, should be fun. They are having a GP/250 proddy race too, 2 strokes only................. The endurance race is after it on the 27th I will be in garage 13/14. Have hired 2 garages and got heaps of us in there
Any ideas where we'll meet up? Bearing in mind I've not been before.
