Heads up guys. A wee way ahead but thought you should all know. 24 - 26 November. Beach racing followed by track racing at Teretonga Raceway, finishing with speedway. Some of my mates are already organising to come down so it would be good if some Kiwibikers turned up too.
This has the potential to be a big event because it will be embraced by the local community as well as bikers.

The views expressed above may not match yours - But that's the reason my Dad went to war - wasn't it?
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, .... but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out,... shouting "man, what a ride"!!!
Well shag, Far Queue. I did a search and came up with nothing so thought I'd give a heads-up. I'll bump it nearer the time. Thanks.

There's 20 of us heading down from westport. Should be a blast.
There is a few of us from the North Shore looking to head off on the 22nd to Wgton ferry over that night and head to Invercargill on the next day (Thursday). Looking to head back on Sunday night to Hamner and then wander back north on Mon/Tue. Unsure of numbers at the moment possibly a couple of Guzzi's a BMW and the odd Triumph and of course the Bandit.
Hope the HP are a little more liberal in the South than up our way at the moment as it might end up a long slow trip.![]()
Myself and a few workmates will be heading down from just north of Christchurch for this. Probably head down inland and then come back up the coast. Sounds like a great weekend planned.
cheaper boat tickets for bikers & thier machines too.
$35 for bike each way + $35 per person each way.
there is a number you must quote to get the discount, i think it's on the southland website.
theres also a link from the radio hauraki web site.
im lookin at coming to this, with any luck. thinkin head down on wednesday, be back by the following thursday.
gonna try and do a fast run going down, but will take my time coming back up to look around and shop.

the really happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery when on a detour.
What day are you leaving JT. At this stage a few of us are leaving Rangiora Friday morning. Looking at heading home Sunday or Monday. There is a mixture of bikes so won`t be breaking any land speed records but should be a good weekend.
Going down on the 22nd. wiil be on the 2.00pm ferry. Back on the boat on the 28th. Heading down via the west coast. should be about seven of us.
If any one wants the cheap ferry. You ring the Interislander groups desk ph 0800878898 and say you are attending the Burt Munro Challenge and quote wh5100 Cost is $30.00 for a bike and $35.00 for an adult.
Yeah leaving friday morning also. This is the first time I'll be riding with them so just tagging along, think there'l be about 6 or 7 of us. Not going inland anymore though as we staying just south of Dunners on Friday night, but may come back up the west coast depending on weather.
