Legends of Dirt Festival and Triumph Bonneville Display - Easter

**merv** · 13th March 2008, 20:20

OK who's not going to Rock 2 Wgtn and will have time to go to Wanganui at Easter for the Legends of Dirt Festival?

Read all the guff here http://www.britishdirt.co.nz/legends/legends.htm

Motu surely this is a must do for you? I'm thinking of taking Mrs merv up for the Saturday at least, leaving my lovely son & daughter sleeping at home recovering from their music gigs as they are both coming home for the Easter happenings in Welly but aren't really into bikes.

The racing should be good seeing all the old bangers out on track.

I see when this was last talked about here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=59461 there was no response, probably because it was too far out at that time, now its only next week.

I'm a plastic bike rider and have never owned a Pomgolian bike but this does sound an interesting event with three world champions in attendance.

Be there

!!!!!

So just too many choices this Easter huh!

Now just as an aside we had our annual meeting at Motorad on Tuesday night and Brendan gave a slide presentation on "Under the Africa Skys". I said to him, "Now you don't sell BMWs anymore, whatcha going ride on next year's adventure?" He said "Triumph Scrambler". Now would anyone believe that?

Yeah I got a house to work on today (unlike Hawkeye this will definitely be a one-dayer) and will go up there tomorrow (in the cage) and maybe finally get a bike ride in on Sunday.
