Looking forward to all youse jokers and jokeresses coming down here for a fine time. Right now the weather has turned cool but we had 30 degrees a couple of days ago. The forecast for the weekend is good. I like the fact the organisers have huge pavilions for everyone just in case a bit of scots mist blows in....

I'll park my yellow Duc in front of the main tent if anyone wants a spot to meet at. Apart from that I expect to camp somewhere near the goal posts, over by the tree line. Good shelter and peaceful.

Don't know if McJim can make it, we'll see what happens. Santa Parade and two little boys tend to grab his attention.

If anybody needs any help or anything while at the Rally, text or ring me 0274314080.

CB and I will be 'Harley-ing' down on Friday arvo (tassles flailing) with a tentative plan of staying at the site Friday night and maybe at CBs friends on the Saturday night....but things can change eh!

**Clairsky** · 25th November 2008, 21:39

Definitly going this year! Got the bug again last weekend, did the trip around the mountain Saturday avo in the sun. Beaut day.
Will you be there Friday afternoon Winston? That's when I'm planning on setting up camp site and coming back later - after kids sports.

**JMemonic** · 26th November 2008, 00:05

Mrs JM and I leave early in the morning for leisurely trip across to the west coast and down through Haast with our planned arrival on site sometime late Friday morning, early afternoon.

Will keep my eyes open for Winston001, scummy etc around the site, I am sure I will not becoming famous due to so random act of insanity on my part in front of some bloke wearing a KR hat carrying a camera.

Looking forward to this.

**madmal64** · 26th November 2008, 05:10

Bike is loaded and Im ready to head out the door to catch the ferry this morning.
Looking forward to meeting some of the Southern KB clan. Im riding a candy apple red Aprilia Falco and will be with cool new Kiwi Indian hard tail springer & a Duc 1098.
Staying in Christchurch tonight and then heading to Geraldine for a quick visit on Thursday. Havent really planned the trip down from there but will be there of Friday.
Im looking forward to doing a week in the South again, its been far too long since the last one.
Bring it on!!

**Winston001** · 26th November 2008, 09:15

Got two mates coming down from Chch and Cromwell so will set up with them on Friday afternoon. Beach racing on Friday evening this year.

How about KBers collect around my bike at midday on Saturday? It will be parked in the row outside the pavilion which is reserved for Ducatis, Aprilias......and the occasional HD.....

Thats assuming I'm not at Teretonga or elsewhere distracted.

Faarg...now I'll have to clean the bike.....sigh....

**Daffyd** · 26th November 2008, 09:15

I'll be heading down mid to late morning, setting up camp roughly where Winston said...seems to be the most sheltered place. Look for a red Yamaha Virago and/or an orange and grey tent.
