[feral1]

Gidday all KB'ers,

The Woodstock Rally, as hosted by the West Coast Touring Motorcycle Club is on again. The dates for the 2006 Woodstock Rally are 27th, 28th & 29th January 2006 (Ackl & Nelson anniversary weekend - good for you guys that are travelling)

It is guaranteed to be stonker as it was last year. Looks like we are all set to blow last years experience. Ask some of the KB'ers that ended up comming, having a great time and drinking a beer or two with us....

Hope to see the usual KB suspects from the last few years and a few new ones.
Go the Woodstock Rally.

Further details are posted on the Calendar section,
or you can check our website www.westcoasttouringmc.com

Good one Feral, asked on the site a few months ago if anybody knew what weekend it was, nobody knew but here it is from the horses mouth!

Will Crissie-Bimbo and I be allowed back openly or do we have to sneak in??

This time we'll be up for a day or two longer!

OK excuse my ignorance BUT where on the West Coast is this rally held as there are 2 Woodstocks in the South Island. one on the Nati moti rd out of Nelson and the other just out of Hokitika.
We went to a Rally at Charleston years ago and that was good, any excuse to ride some good top of the south roads.

[scumdog]

It's about 5km (I think) out of Hokitika, my head was too fuzzy to notice the true distance last time I left the rally.

Gidday there Scumdog,

be good to see you and Crissie there again. I am sure you wouldn't have to come beggin to get into the site, we forgive you... (not sure if that copper patrolling outta Wanaka has yet tho...)

Be good to see the guys from chch and toddy from the deep south as well.
I met NC30chick last time she was on the coast, don't know if she is still posting on the site (haven't visited KB for a little while now - my computer shat itself), be good to see her and a few others from welly.

Pickle; yeah the site is about seven km's from hokitika. The rally is held at the woodstock domain which is a bitchin scenic site looking into the alps and right on the Hoki river. Good comfortable site with food, good tent sites, flush loos/showers and a good bunch of fellow riders (and some explosive entertainment - think local coasters playing with big military hardware)

Come on down and have a good ride on the fine coast roads. Will be a good ride from wellington down.

Will throw the entry/information form on the thread as an attachement soon, so you can check the details

This one ?

ps: turn the weather on like that again, and we will be back

[Rashika]

Yeah from what I've heard it was an excellant rally and even got the weather right...cant wait!

[branco]

i'll be making the short, but quick, trip down from westport. Anyone else from this area going down to hoki let me know and we can ride together.

[feral1]

Dangerous: yeah, cheers mate, thats the one.
Look forward to seeing you and Manuboy from Chch. I hear you sold you VTR for some new sexy guzi. Will have quiet word too above regarding the wx... I am sure it will be another bitchen hot weekend.

Rashika: I will keep an eye ouf for that nice buell of yours on site. There is always a huge amount coming over from Chch and Canterbury, so it should be a good ride over the alps.

Gidday branco, welcome to KB mate. I see you are in Westport. Be good to see you at the rally. we have a few members of our West Coast Touring Motorcycle Club that are from westport. The club goes on regular west coast based rides, including up your way. The next ride up your way is an overnighter to Karamea, this comming weekend. Will be good. I won't be going myslef. But if you PM me with your email adress, i will send you the WCTMCC October newletter. No worries mate
I also see you asked about the bottled lightning - good run that. One of the guys in the club is involved in the organising and I will get his number for you and post it in that thread.

[branco]

Excellent Feral, thanks for your help. Shame about this weekends ride as i plan to take the zx7r over chch to meet some friends, otherwise the karamea trip would be a blast. I also look forward to getting down to hoki and catching up with u guys/girls.

[dangerous]

I hear you sold you VTR for some new sexy guzi

Na mate havent sold the Firestorm .... but need to, so spread the word

Why are you selling your beastie?

[hondav2]

Thats a good pic of us aye,
Dangerous I got a new oil filter for a VTR here if you want it. All going well I will be there again, BEST food and Music at the last rally, will try and bring a few more from the deep south. Cheers Toddy

[feral1]

Hey Toddy: good to hear from you again. Haven't had the time to look through your intredid travel logs yet, but look forward to catching up with you all for a beer very soon.

Dangerous: I will spread the word. there is a guy up Nelson way looking around for a new roadbike. he is interested in a CBR, VFR, VTR or TL. i rang him about my Tiller and send him info tro. But he had a go on a TL and said it wasn't quite for him - reconed he would be better of with a nice, quite and mellow VTR...
he has an add in last tursdays BS&E under M/C wanted. if you havent got a copy of the paper, i will PM you his number. he might like to know more about your shiny macine.
Yep - i am selling mine, it is a bit strange because i have owned for a long time & there is no doubt, i love the bike, it is immaculate and does everything very well - it will make someone a happy man, especially at the super deal price!!! But I am keen for a new(ish) inline four 1000. ...come-on toddy give's a crack on the RR

Branco - I will PM you my work email. You can send me a email and i will ensure you get the latest WCTMCC newsletter.

To the rest of you, looking forward to Woodstock 2006.

[scumdog]

Arghh, having a battle to get leave for that weekend - I gave 'em four months notice, how much lead-time do they need?? (obviously NZ Police is overstaffed -yeah right!).
C.B. has got extra time off and we were hoping to have a more liesurely cruise home thi next Woodstock rally, keep your fingers crossed people - of course if you don't want me there keep 'em uncrossed!
