    Not to sure how MNZ would react to us Welly bucketeers. Even though some of us have MNZ licences we don't actually run under MNZ, we run under the kart club....

    Would definitely be worth asking though, just best it comes from an MNZ licence holder which I think Dave and Rich may be??

    I've heard a rumor that there may be a possibility that there might be a truck to transport bikes if we can find a van to transport riders, share costs...
    WHEN I am famous I will definitely remember: K2 Racing (Wharfy), Ride Life (Alex Hockly), RaceFairings.co.nz (Billy), Motodynamics.co.nz (Shaun Harris), Jeff Whitehead, Moto Academy (Steve), Victoria Motorcycle Club (VMCC), and the Crofts.

    Well Rich launched the idea. How many we would need to make it worthwhile & people to rely on keeping a commitment.

    Be good to see you guys make it down. Maybe we should broach the subject on sunday racing.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Victoria Motorcycle Club is making it's truck and a 12 seat van available if we can get 12 riders together.
    Price will be less than $200 plus your personal ferry ticket (about $55 return). This price covers the fuel and the ferry crossing for your bike.

    If you're keen on this offer contact race@vicclub.co.nz ASAP! Preference will be given to Vic Club members but I'm fairly sure we will have room for you all.

    If we don't have 12 confirmed by the end of this month we will not be able to do this - so hurry up!

    This is being posted on FB as well (For the gurls F5...)

    Yup This sounds like a great plan, I'd be in & have sent email.

    Only one of my crashes that I don't take all the credit for too.

    B track is only one corner I haven't ridden isn't it?

    Yeah, that's what I thought after watching Richards footage from last year.

    Funny thing, I've done a few days on that track, and never once noticed the facility to turn left there. I'd hit you up for a bed for the weekend, but being a breeding factory now I think I'll try my luck elsewhere.

    If we come down that is.

    Add me and GirrlRacer to the list Skunk. This might benefit from it's own thread? Will be great to get down there with a good VMCC/Welly representation. Might have to upgrade my licence I s'pose.

    I'm not sure I want to ride on something that's been intimate with Drew I will end up looking like an amateur.

    I guess I could put some bikes out of the garden shed into the garage and you could sleep out there
