Hi there Howard

Long time no see.
I understand you guys along with BRONZ are doing some of the
organizing/support for the BIKEOI on the 16-17th.

I have spoken to The Feilding Holiday Park owner (Colin) and have encouraged
him to offer a discount for the riders in the BIKEOI on the night of 16th
November (and im sure he will also offer that for any that wish to stay over
the extra night on their return from Wellington).

He has agreed to offer cabins etc at $20 a head for that night. The riders
will need to be willing to share the units tho and bring their own bedding
(eg: sleeping bag (and pillow if required))

The facility has about 6 caravans available at present and several cabins
that sleep 4 persons, a few rooms that sleep 5 (1 double bed and 3
single... as 2 bunk beds) and also a 'bunkhouse type building' that has 17
beds.
A rough count I think he can cater for around 70 people.
The camp has a full kitchen and abolution block. And also a large area for
tenting if any wish (didnt get a price for them)

If you wish to contact him to discuss the offer Colins phone number is
06-3235623

For anyone that wishes to take up his offer the booking phone number is the
same as above,06-3235623 and the address of the camp is 5 Arnott Street,
Feilding.

We can accommodate a 'couple', or a couple of 'real close' friends, at our place on any of the nights. Must nice to our cats though. No garage space for more than one bike. Hidden off street parking though.

PM me.

Will be riding down after work on Mon. Hope ta leave Whangarei before 4pm. Will ride down as far as I feel like, and pitch tent in some convenant road side spot. Will get past Turangi and hope ta get as far as Hunterville/Vinegar Hill that night. Will try and join nearest group riding ta Wellington the next day. Will have mobile phone with me (027 4534020).

All good, will be saddling up any day after Wednesday next week, looking for a nice day and ride to Wellington to join the riders from Papakowhai on Tuesday. Anyone else interested in leaving a few days earlier? I do have a few rooms free in my house in Island Bay but no spare beds and limited bike parking.

PM or call me on 021 472 078

Hey Guys n Gals

There will be a Pre-BIKOI Rally at the Rimutaka Forest Park, in Wainuiomata. Anyone needing accomodation and wanting to meet up with everyone else feel free to turn up. I will be arranging for a barbecue/food setup so an indication of numbers will be much appreciated before hand so I know how much food to get etc.

Directions from SH1 at Ngauranga
