we are heading down on Friday as well. I don't dance either.

I dance so badly , I think that's why I'm single (I can waltz, etc.. but that doesn't help when boogying to a band)

[98tls]

Will only be Friday night for me if at all,bloody work

[KZT]

Why dont they focus on catching crims and not worry about how many of us hate nick smith for the shafting on regos

[KZT]

Will get there Friday morning ..... Yes!! Friday morning!!!!!

Meeting up with a few others and want to grab a good site altogether.

I think there will be quite a few there that night...going from previous Friday nights

Also heard that they are going to be checking WOF and rego when breath testing .

oh joy, only a 3 hour wait to leave this year

I am a March Hare virgin, so am very interested.
Been to a few rallies lately and have heard lots of talk about the cops being just as annoying this year .
Have also heard that clubs got some money together and have bought 5 breath testers to have on site at different rallies, so you can check before heading out on the road .
Also heard that they are going to be checking WOF and rego when breath testing .
I told you that I had heard alot!!!!

Isnt it interesting that they choose to test at a motorcycle event such as the Hare but a recent car event in Rangiora the powers that be chose not to test the folks leaving in the morning after an over night camp not dissimilar to a M/C rally.

One of my informants had the audacity to inform me that had they been tested they would have lost their license, but then proceed to rant about how dangerous us motorcyclists are and how we should be given lower tolerances

I am all for it if they have the numbers of staff, and are check legality of the vehicles to be on the road, lets hope its not like the fiasco it was last year where we waited until about 11:00 to leave and there was still a rather long queue

Well, it seems that due to circumstaces beyond our control we will not be attending this weekend, probably not so good to bugger off and leave the kids to it for the weekend just at them moment.

So those that are still going, have a drink for me.

And for those that are not.......

As the plan was to celebrate mrs neels birthday on saturday night at the rally, it seems only right to continue with that plan a bit closer to home. So anyone who is staying in chch for the weekend is welcome for a quiet drink or two on saturday, if you feel the need bring the bike and/or pitch the tent and stay the night.

If you're keen pm me and I'll pass on the details as they come to hand, if you're in contact with any possibly interested parties that are without internet please pass the invite onto them.

[far queue]

I'll still be there camping on a more stable patch of land than is currently the case.

[Dave-]

I'll be there next year, no racing this year

[Ghost_Bullet]

I prepaid the weekend before this... and before that what we just had.
Great intention of still attending, though remaining rather fluid in the plans.

[kerryhare]

we have prepaid, but not sure if I will go. Going to see how the week goes.

[orsem]

I'm still heading down friday, can't wait to just get away. My thoughts go to those affected by the quake.

[dangerous]

hmmm.. of two minds really, got a sitter n all and NEELS its mine and SuziQ's BD aswell.
So will see how the week goes etc, proberly do us all good to clear the head and get away from it all for 48hrs.

Whos up for a Saturday ride via Geraldine, Fairley, Cave?

[Suzi Q]

I was planning on being there but my lovely new bike was in getting clear coated to stop stone chips. It is inside the cordon. It fell over but landed on carpet and is apparently unscathed. there is a very slim possibility that I might get it friday but not counting on it.
