Partners race, November

**Henk** · 4th June 2012, 20:41

We are going to be running a partners race at the two hour.
Loose format that has been suggested is that all the ladies start, then after ten laps they pit for either a bike or transponder swap. We've got enough tentative entries now to make this a go so if you have ever thought about getting your wife or girlfriend out on track now would be a good time. One has already sorted out gear and been out for her first practice session.

My brother's girlfriend is pretty keen to get out and have a crack.
Just need a set of leathers to fit a midget.

Girls start?
Thats a bit to gender specific for the entries south of Auckland.
If you get entries from the south island it may be to species specific.

OOoooooooooooh, you better watch your back mister. Have you forgotten Luke & Shona live south of Auckland these days?????????

You need to get your daughter to come along, we'll find her a "partner" for the day.

South Island entries - we'd need to revisit the rules/regulations bwahahaha

How does she compare size-wise to Will? We could start doing an ask around, as someone's bound to have some leathers hidden away, or keep an eye on TM. Hard to believe he's got a GF, or is she ginger too? hehehehe

Seriously though, we've got a few months to sort things out. Tell Oscar to bring her along one Saturday, she can go out on my 100 with Tracy and see how it goes. If she'd fit my leathers, she could go out using them, but I'm no midget, so I'm assuming she'd need smaller leathers than that.

I sent Mooools a pm saying I have a set of leathers for sale,
small womans size that fitted Shona If anyone wants them.

Nothing is finalized on this, I think we'd probably allow father daughter or mother son teams if it came to it. Of course in that case the Biddles will smoke us all but you get that. Noth that I can see the Banks clan driving up to go racing in Auckland anytime soon

That's not fair on some couples - Gav/Julie, Brian/Mel (and we luffs Mel, 'cause she does lapscoring for us at North Island rounds, plus she's cool), we also luffs Julie, 'cause she's fun to race.

Hmm, must talk to Tuna - he can talk to Tanyas and get her & her partner/husband along as well.

Ellen & Steve would also be excluded (I think), if it was only married couples.

Married couples would only be Henk/me, Shona/Luke, Rick/Tracy, I think, which would be dull, and this way we might end up with more females coming & playing with us at other meets. Might mean revisiting who we get to do lapscoring, but we'll figure it out when/if the time comes.

What about civil unions ?
