South Island 2008 KB Rally

Well Scott and Margie will make it 40 now and don't forget some of us will have pillions.

My old trout may end up coming as well, but she hasn't registered as she isn't an interweb thingy person.

Hey Margie & Scott, keep an eye on the registration thread. Numbers already 38!

When is takeover day?????

You asked, "When is takeover day?" -- If you mean, when do Margie and I take over the camp, it's the end of July. If you mean, when do the Kiwi Bikers take over the camp, I guess that's up to you...

Turn in @ Maheno, esp coming from the South. Keep following signs to Tokarahi, Enfield and Duntroon. Turn left before Duntroon @ Danseys Pass Road.

Yes Oakie, that's my normal route in and out of Oamaru on the bike.

It was very heavy wet fog (almost drizzle) from the coast to about Aviemore and the roads through Weston, Ngapara, Duntroon, get a lot of cow shit, tractor mud etc, in other words, as greasy as a butcher's prick and dark as at night!

Cheers John.

Thanks Chris - I've been over it once in the Mistral (no, not one of those Jap wannabe off-roaders)from Danseys Pass Camp to Maheno and there sure seems to be lots of sealed road wandering around between the two points.

Good to see another KLR rider on here. Where are you based until you take over the camp ? Stu
