    If we follow the current formula it will have to be up norf somewhere; maybe Nelson lakes, but as I don't have much knowledge of the area I'm happy to go with the flow.

    It's the SI K/B rally.

    You could start by suggesting somewhere to hold the thing.....

    I did have a vague thought about this place in the lewis pass

    http://www.boyle.org.nz/

    Same sort of set up as this years venue, don't know too much about the place or even if they do casual accomodation for bunches of scruffy motorcyclists, but it's in the right sort of northish direction.
    Riding cheap crappy old bikes badly since 1987

    Okey dokey then...I'm thinking and it hurts. Not heard of Doyle River but there's a cool looking campground over Tapawera way....also a fun one over Murchison way...I'll get looking around. xx

    Murch sounds like a good spot - but it has preferably be a spot where KBers can be in isolation so's we don't upset other campers.

    Other 'GoodThings'(tm) are a sealed road, huts instead of tents, a communal area where we can all sit around and talk crap (we're good at that) and cooking facilities.

    Feel free to add to this list if you feel like it you KB Gathering veterans.
