2013 KB South Island Rally

[Jackal]

Went for a wee ride today with Mrs J. Ended up doing a 200k figure of eight from home through some of South Canterburys great bike riding roads ending up at home again. On the ride we went through a rural area called Raincliff and came across this Youth Camp. Soon as I saw it I thought Camp KB, 2013! Googled it and it has a web site. (Just google 'Raincliff' and it has all the info needed.) There are a few great loop rides for the Saturday ride and plenty of places to stop at for a lunch. (Geraldine/Fairlie/Cave/Pleasent Point/Rangitata etc) All on sealed roads to. So if there is some interest I will make some enquiries as it looks like a place that gets a bit of use so booking early might be the go.

Be a possible . $750 cover and $15 a person . pretty reasonable if there is about 40ish attend. See you have to apply for permit to drink on site , guess it shouldn't be too much of a hassle if booked well ahead

I have made an enquiry about this venue for the 2013 KB Rally and have just received a reply. 2nd weekend in December 2013 is free and we are most welcome to make a firm booking. The lady said they have recently had a group of "mature" bikers use the centre. That sounds like us, "mature", well most of us anyway!!!!!! The way I read it, all we have to do is gain written permission from the trust committee to have alcohol there and it will cost you $15 a night. The $750 mentioned is just for functions like weddings. So no one is to get married that weekend, OK. Unless anyone can see a reason not to go there in 2013, I will make a firm booking and get them to send out a booking info pack.

you would need 50 people to cover it

Looks good to me, nice ride down there and plenty of really fun roads nearby for a lunch trip on saturday.

Sounds great to me, I know this place as I once carted logs from the Rainclifs forest. :-)

The way I read it, the $750 charge is for functions held there like weddings etc. Not if we book it for the weekend. Then it is only $15 per person per night. Just waiting for a 'Booking Pack' to arrive and will be able to confirm costs.
