North Island Pocket Bike revival

[Racerno37]

Hi Everyone

I'm trying to get pocket bike racing going again on the North Island. The plan is as follows:

1) initial "play day" with buckets at Mt Wellington on a Saturday. If there are enough people (and they all behave themselves) this could potentially be a monthly event.
2) possible "play day" at Taumarunui Kart Track (I haven't arranged this yet, but hope to get this in place)
3) If numbers are sufficient, a discussion with bucket racers about attaching pocket bike rides to their NI bucket events (at various kart tracks around NI).


So, If you are interested in a Saturday at Mt Wellington kart track, please let me know so that i can get an idea of numbers.

Please note:

a) Full face helmet, properly secured is manadatory
b) Full body covering is required
c) Gloves are required
d) sturdy footwear to above the ankle required
e) No stands, brackets or other hazards allowed on bikes
f) Plastic foot rests and bar ends are required on ALL bikes. Protect our host's tracks and they will let us keep riding.
g) there will be a small fee payable for the Mt Wellington rides
h) ALL BIKES AND GEAR WILL BE INSPECTED PRIOR TO BEING ALLOWED ON THE TRACK.

Dust off your bike and register your interest with me and I'll see what we can do.

cheers

Great news guys: we have the ok from Tokoroa Kart club to use their track. Please contact me for more information. Please do not use their track without paying etc, otherwise they may withdraw their permission for all of us.

Tamarunui kart track is looking like a good option too. I just need to speak to the operators.

Cheers
