I will be there. 7 years since my last one. i have had a lot of fun in the South Island for the last 6 years.

Will be there with bells on, same as the last 10

Rumour on the street here in the Bay is that this may well be the last Duck.
From what i have been led to beleive, due to the health and safety nazis, there wont be drums dotted around so we can have our own fires anymore and thew club itself is going through some sort of strife. Gotta stress, that is only rumor, i dont know anyone in the club...

It will be good to see you again... I hope you provide the same entertainment this year & maybe she will wear a bikini when you "drop her off"!

Well as somebody in the club, I can tell you that not only is this a viscous rumour (but hey any press is good press!) but we do have fire drums, outstanding entertainment, cold beer, hot food and running water as always!
Oh and a brand new stage roof so you won't get wet!

But if you want to believe the rumours then best you make it along to the last Cold Duck ever and bring all your mates with you along with lots and lots of money so you don't miss out on what is likely to be the biker party of the decade and many decades to come!

Hope the weather improves for you campers,yesterday was diabolical in Waipawa,lucky the event date not this weekend as per mums' day weekend.Had to check a job in area around 3.30ish,was wet,foggy and not condusive for dry tent sites.
Hope the week gives time for ground to dry out by Friday.
