Rusty Nuts: 2013 Southern Cross Road Rally

[insomnia01]

Have I missed something Pete ? Friday is doable as I have a thursday am ferry but notes say Saturday

Hi Mate

You've got me thinking now! Couldn't find a reference on Rustys site (quick look only) but page 5 reinforces my recall http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...rt-from-Shafty

May be a " word of mouth thing"

A ride report is compulsory btw

Good luck

Pete

I last did it in 2007 and it was a Friday finish for all. Think they changed it to Saturday after that.

First time for Dodgy & I but looking forward to it Can't Wait ......

I think all the heat & flack they have got over the past year or 2 has made them push it out to Saturday I dont know but its a cruise leaving East cape L/H on Wed & making Bluff by Sat... should be a blast

By now most of you will be sorting your ride for run up to the Cape. Wish I was going.

Not all bad though, just spent my SCRR budget on a ZZR250 learner for the young fella.

Hope you guys have a blast and all come back safe n sound.

weather looks good for the first three check points with possible showers in the east cape region & south island, will be a blast

Rain predicted around the East cape on Tuesday. The rest of the time ... pretty much clear.

However ... Rain is now being predicted on the lower south island west coast on Friday. Centered around Haast from the early daylight hours ... rain slowly moving north (and weakening) to about Fox/Franz by lunchtime. But rain still heavy over the Haast pass all day.

And you might need your wet gear mid day Saturday. It doesn't look like you'll bring it north to Paradise though.

that will give me a chance to try out my new rain suit, haven't had much call for it up these ways
