    Pissed Penguin 19 Sept - which Adv Riders are going?

    Hi all - the Pissed Penguin at Wilsher Bay is coming up on Sept 19th. Who of the adventure riding persuasion is intending to go?
    As in past events I can cope with a few bodies here on the Friday night and then plan some sort of devious route to the rally site on Sat morning.

    Count me in Bruce. RuralMan is the perfect host & gravel guide for South Otago.

    A few of us usually go down to Lawerence & back 'the best way', incl BlackForest / Haka / Dansey's / Dunstan Trail etc, if anyone wants to join us.

    We go every year with the Wanaka Motorcycle club guys but I would be keen to do an Adventure run if you can wait for me on the DR650 or if you are roading it I would ride the Hypertard.!

    We've been waiting to see what you're up to!

    (No need to think about us on the Saturday either - planning to do a run down to Bluff then up through the Catlins...by road...)

    I'll have to come up with a couple of alternative routes - no point going on the higher gravel roads if theres nothing to look at 'cos its pissing down.
    There'll be a couple of 650's with us so you'll be in good company. The big 'tard would be fun on a bit of gravel wouldn't it?

    If I can swing the "official opening" of the new sealed road (right next to the rally site) for Sat then I will want to be there for that, but after that a ride down the Catlins would be better than the pub crawl that the organisers put on

    Might see you down there somewhere - strongly recommend the Whistling Frog cafe as a stop - about 400m south from the Cathedral Caves turn off.
    In fact we like this place so much I would really love to have a KB rally there - so have a look around and see what you think.

    Will have a look. Shrek has mentioned before about having the KB rally in that area, so not a bad idea.

    I might be interested in a run to the chilly south if I can get a leave pass. Whats the general idea down on Friday back Sunday? Much gravel planned for the Canty based riders (too damn far to travel on seal!).
