online tickets are still available for another 24hours, register on line and interweb banking it than the tickets will be held at the gate, cheaper than a gate entry and meals still available

[Crazy Steve]

With another week of solid rain ahead....Who thinks they can get up either side of the Hill climb this year ? ?

Im picking it will be very hard this year ! ! And absolutley no road bikes with road tyres will get anywhere near the top.

Crazy Steve.

Rego should be a dead cert... unless your credit card bounces...

As far as the WOF - if it fails, let me know. I have a book of them here somewhere.

Anyone from Wellington heading up to Cold Kiwi on Friday morning, My plan is to leave Wellington at about 9:30-10:30am and have a relaxed ride up and arrive some time after the gates open at 3pm so I have plenty of time to pitch my tent in daylight

So if you want some company or if I can join other group that has a similar plan can you PM me or post something here.

I am flexible with time and don't mind taking a scenic route (but not to keen on taking to many narrow wet back roads at this time of the year).

Hey Leber.. I am heading up on Friday too, and have not yet really organised what I'm doing - like you I would like to get there in daylight to be able to set up my tent and get myself sorted for the night ahead.

I think I might be going with some freinds of a friend, a pretty large group heading up I think, leaving Friday morning. I'll try to find out by tomorrow evening and flick you a PM to let you know the details. If I can't catch up with that group, then I would love to tag along with you. Wasn't that keen on riding on my own anyway.

Hopefully I'll know more tomorrow.

- So very excited - don't know if I really know what I've got myself in for. Weeeee!

I've got a safe bet on someone with a cape making it up the right side.
