Cold Kiwi 3 - 5 September 2010

[Bren]

Just woken up, not a cloud in the sky, but still is bloody cold - Whoooh at least I'm leaving Wellington dry

What time are you heading up mate?

[SuperSonic]

Me leaving early Sat Morning now. See you all at site


Sele1s whats the plan for the boyz travelling to the site?

[Mrs Shrek]

Oh Sels..... thats just teasing. And I have been practising my singing all week. I'm riding to the Kiwi on Friday, so can't come party with all you party people - we could have done a duet! Hehe - one day, I'll get back out there - i LOVE that place.

Shame you won't be coming along this year, was looking forward to catching up. Hopefully I get to meet your 3 lovely friends from the south up at the site? You can't miss me - I'm short, far too small for my bike, and hardly ever stop giggling!

Have a great night tomorrow night - shame I'm going to miss it.

the "three lovely friends" are on the way, you won't be able to miss them either, just look for the hammock hanging from the tree and take good care of "the green one" please

Mate sorry we didn't catch up! We saw MarkH a few times, Held the bar up in the main tent friday night next to the heater after the wind started up and the bonfire wasn't warm anymore...thought might see you go past. We had tents at bottom of hill climb next to the little yellow trike, there was a camo houchy over back of mates tent to keep the worst off. Heard you were somewhere past the snow sculpture, had a wander over there on saturday morning but didn't see you.

We decided saturday afternoon was to good to waste riding and went when the weine snatch was starting.

[paturoa]

Throughly wicked time.

Xgnr and I left dorks at mid day and got to site at 4:30 to set up next to Stu's knob in the normal location. Met Shafty and Mark and just as I unpacked the tent from the mule it started to rain, lots of, big cold stuff!

I got out my trusty Warehouse yellow rain coat and it was all good. By the time the tent was up and gear stowed it was way past time for a beer, so we did.

It was windy and cold till about 8pm, when the snow started. Overall there was at least 4 inches. Various meeting of lots of peeps, lots of drinking ended opening a nice bottle of cheap port. Xgnrs fav!

Sat morning was a stunner, snow everywhere and not much wind. I got out the deck charis and we just soaked up the sun and stupidity.

A new mate from dorks turned up on Sat arvo wth a couple of his mates (CK virgins) and they had a ball. This morning they were very sad boys!

[dori]

What a great weekend. My first CK and certainally not the last.

I probably met some of you, but i dont know. We were stoaking the fire that used to be a household Yunka fireplace.

The snow was excellent, I dont think it was all that cold all weekend really, but i guess, alcohol has been known to leave me wrong before.

Cheers
