Vincent Rally - 1st weekend Feb - any adv riders going?

[Ruralman]

Just out of interest how many adventure riders are planning on going to the Vincent Rally this year?
At some stage I want to ride the full length of the Dunstan Trail from Clarkes Junction right through to the Ida Valley as well as doing the Nevis Road. I was toying with the idea of doing the Dunstan Trail on the Friday on the way to the Vincent Rally, having a "NOT TOO HORRENDOUS " Friday night there, and then heading off on Sat to ride the Nevis and back to the rally site via Queenstown and the Kawerau Gorge (plus maybe a Crown Range deviation). Then maybe leering it up a bit on Sat night.

Anyone else interested ? - I know many of you did bits of the Dunstan during the Brass Monkey and on the way to my place for the Pissed Penguin Rally, but doing the whole thing in mid summer might be different.

... doing the whole thing in mid summer might be different.

Yep, it would be ... bloody dusty. I'll be at the rally, but as a tar baby, and only on the Saturday. Have fun guys.
