We will be staying at the racecourt motel, if ya wanna catch up before hand

Staying there as well now, should catch up for a drink tonight.

Sweet as Kendog, we not leaving tauranga, until about 3-4, depends on what time motogirl finshed, so most likey won't be manfield until 8ish but fire us a txt when ya get there, and we let you know how we are.

We be pretty easy to spot bright red van with 'Rider' custom seats on side of it, with the yellow devil inside.

We're leaving Tauranga at 2.30 and I think it's only 5-5 1/2 hours to Fielding?

Ok I'v decided to ride up Sat morning as I've got a fare bit to do tomorrow (today for all of you as I'm just going to bed)

So will be at that bit you can pull into (I think it's a police weigh station but not sure) just past the roundabout at plimmerton at 7.15 and will be leaving no later than 7.30.

So anyone wanting to join me I shall see you there.

Thanks

The Hitcher Ensemble (Casey Stoner Hitcher and her pit crew) will be leaving Ngaio some time between 7:00 and 7:15. If we see you we see you, but please don't wait if we're not there by your preferred departure time.

I am definitely going to attempt to be there (though it's freakin early!). I can't ride very well so you may have to be gentle with me...

So I guess one is not expected to be there particularly soon after the gates open at 7:30, for the signing on? I'll probably still go a bit earlier than 7, though - especially since I'm trailering 'just in case'. I don't want to be still frantically getting stuff compliant when it comes to briefing time (can you tell I've never done this before?)

As the briefing is at 9.15, and you should have registered and been scrutinized before that time, I am not sure you are leaving early enough.

Ouch! The accompanying documentation was a bit vague on that point. Having just re-read these, I thought that "scrutineering" applied to non-road registered bikes and that pointing at the WOF would be sufficient?

I'm assuming I at least also have to point to my taped up headlight, missing mirrors and leather gloves etc ...

I'm also wondering if it's ok to remove my indicators - will find out when I get there, I guess, but would like to leave sufficient time to remove them if I can.

It all worked out in the end, was a little more relaxed with the scrutineering than other track days I have been to.
Was a great day. I have photos to share and will do a write up when I am a little more awake.

It was a very pleasant ride back too...

Yes well..........
Sorry Tazman, I didn't realise you were going to ride home with us, I would've made sure the boys had waited!! Then again, you probably got home an hour before us!
