2013 KB South Island Rally

**Jackal** · 1st December 2013, 19:55

Hi all. Went for a ride out to Raincliff (Kamp KB 2013) today with Mr Triple to check out the venue. It all looks good. Plenty of room for everyone. There are 12 rooms each with 6 bunks and two lounges at each end of the complex along with the main hall/dining room and well equipped kitchen in the middle. Got the tour of the place with the very pleasant caretakers who live down the road. I asked about a few of the important questions like, fireworks, no problems there. Bike parking, it's OK to park them in front of the dining room as long as they don't leak petrol or oil on the grass. I assured him no worries as there won't be too many Harleys

It will cost you $32.00 per adult and $15.00 per child for the weekend regardless if you are there for 1 or 2 nights. This you can pay to me when you get there or if you want to pre pay PM me and I will give you our bank details so you can do that bank transfer thingee.

There is very large outdoor fire/BBQ area so bring a sausage. I will also bring a gas BBQ so that can be used as well. The place has a large walk-in chiller so cold storage for the beer will not be a problem. Kitchen is well stocked with plates and cutlery.

So, it is all set for an awesome weekend. Anyone that has been humming and harring about coming this year bite the bullet and make the effort. If you have not been before you will meet some great people and have a great time. This will be my 5th KB rally and have made some good friends at Kamp KB. When I turned up to my first one I was made quite welcome by those that have been there from the start. If you are still not sure give me a PM or txt, or get in touch with someone going who lives nearby you and ride together.

Saturday lunch will be at the Chequed Flag on SH 1 Rangitata at 1pm (ish). If you are turning up there on the Saturday and won't be there on the Friday night please let me know as I will be ringing them on Friday evening with numbers for Saturday.

Cheers....................Craig

That is a shame. Are you sure you cannot do Fridays work on Mon/Tues/Wed/Thru and make it up on Saturday? The KB Rally IS Mr and Mrs Shrek!

Rammy is ok, ya see Q wondered if a white sheep could jump, so he stacked up a few crates in the paddock jumped on Rammy and did a circute, lined the hurdles up and went for it... now Q thinks he has big balls but honestly Rammys are bigger, shit they drag on the ground on the coldest days... well rammy made it over the hurdle but is cods didnt, brought the poor old lamb chop to a stand still, Q however carried on landing arse over albo in sheep shit, some what imbrassed and smelling he ran to the hose to wash down, what he didnt relise is one of his turkys had got out and chewed on the Griso wiring loom, draging it across the path, Q fell flat on his face and well hey come on we are all thinking it this could have only improved his looks... feeling some what pissed of Q took a swing at the Turky with his boot clean missed and kicked the house... while hopping around holding on to his foot he seen his favoret MJ doll being molested by the cat, in a hurry to save poor michell he stood on the boys skate board this sending him at warp speed down the drive straight out onto the road were Mrs GB was hooking the swift to the left in order to drift on up the drive, not seeing Q she cleaned him up smack center of the grill, Q went clean over the red demon landing on all fours... ummm two's thinking to himself fark Im a lucky bastard did a highland jig in the middle of the road said 3 hell marys then fell down a pot hole hes been meaning to back fill all month... you guessed it, braking his leg... fucking muppet aye, Rammy then having seen the hole thing pissed him self loughing forgetting that his nads were stuck in Q's empty beer bottles... heres hopping Q removes em before his next brew up, or maybe that be a boil up.

Bloody hell the imagination... love it, great story, should convert it to a script and make a movie!!!!

This leg def aint flash, the ankle is still hugely swollen. And on top of that in a brace that means I cant bend the leg, that kinda sucks to, getting into a car is a mission, let alone fitting right.
Last drive was last week into Rangiora and that was an uncomfortable mission.

In a sense I would be love to be able to blame the home brew. Though only having a couple of bottles of lager over a few hrs... it was not that.
I have had people reckon I wont be on the bike in ages, but I aint gonna listen to such crap. The sooner the better.

Sadly I shall have to await the rally's of 2014 and next years KB, gonna be a shame to have a gap in me collection of KB badges.
