Battle of the Buckets 2014

[Kickaha]

Yeah but I've proved that I'd rather push my MB than ride a GN

You've proved that quite often

[F5 Dave]

I'm not suggesting this year will be any different.

Any chance of being allowed to camp at the track in a self-containment certified camper van?

...make sure you have the paperwork, in triplicate please...(sorry, couldn't contain myself)

I don't like your chances on that, track is locked up at night, there plenty of other places you can park , you don't need to be first there in the morning.
The Cams club who are running the meeting are pretty good at pushing the rounds through so nobody misses out

Thanks for that. Alpine View camp at Templeton looks good.
Anyone know which track layout they will use for the buckets? Likely to be long and fast or not?

...B Track...short and fast...

Hmmmm... sure looks fast. Which direction do we race?

For those not familiar with B track here is a video

[Yow Ling]

so who is coming down from North Island? GPR were hinting over at the other side, that they coming.
stay for a couple of months and go to the Cams thing down at Timaru, 3 days of Buckets and old shitters what could be better, other than the BOB of course

I won't be making it.

Damn, you are a veteran
Can we do anything to make a new decision ?

[Skunk]

No, I wish there was. I'll be back sometime.

Working towards three GPR boys, we are going to have to impose on someone perhaps for accommodation again though! Thoughts are to spend two nights in Christchurch, and then look to head to Greymouth, but that will just evolve as we work it through.

Just doing our costings at the moment, it is a work in progress (bit like my barrel)!

CAMS is also holding the F4 cup in the last bucket race of the day for any bikes left that make it though the BOB.

Sign in 8-9.00am
Riders breifing 9.15am
Practice from 9.30am
Few beers in the new CAMS outdoor area at the B track after racing 4.00pm.

All the usual Post Classic and Classic classes + junior clubmans, senior clubmans and moderns.

We will need some help re qualifying/grid positions for the BOB and also handicapping the F4 cup.

If people want to camp at the track I can ask the track manager ?
But as above you would be locked in (they have security cameras so those late night naked runs around the track will be on facetube the next day )

Cheers
