it rained one morning, they delayed the rqces till it cleared, a lot of riders don't even bother to take wets, they won't race in the wet as there's a lot of oil and deisel from the trucks on the front staight that would surface.

sensible decision, that track is to fast in case of shit happening for potentual dissasters with the spectators being so close

Any recommendations within 45 mins or so of Paeroa? I realise that in town and around will be booked out.

Stay in Waihi Beach. For example the holiday park. It's quiet, close to the beach (who would have thought...

) and in the morning you can ride/drive the beautiful windy road along the Karangahake Gorge. Google said it's 28 minutes away from Paeroa.

Forgot Paeroa is on. Is it February already? Must have missed that with all the noise of my deadlines whooshing past...I'd better book my accomodation, too.

The footy club does campsites for a minimal fee. $5 a night includes Showers etc. Last time I went anyway.

Stupid phone / Tapatalk, apologies in advance.

Well, yeah. But that lot could take the lustre off a family trip. Especially the Buttplug.

I always wanted to open a restaurant called the Bearded Clam.

I can think of a few more but really have to go and & put a nipple on me strimmer.
