    Never a truer word spoken about the GP125.

    We have 12 Wellingtonians comming but still no dorkland reps, sort a crew out asap.

    ps: bring the TZ sunday is a post classic meet.
    I should change my name to GPBucket or something as the TZ has become to expensive for me to ride or crash. I have become much more interested in Buckets. Buckets are much more fun, I can afford to fiddle with the bikes, developing them to suit the track, ride hard, and really learn to corner and best of all spend time with really great people.

    I would love to come to the Battle of the buckets, there are a few of us talking about the reality of making the trip.

    It looks like two/three days driving the van each way, 2 Fairy crossings and two days racing.

    Whats the practicality's of sending the bikes ahead (container) and flying down?

    Some of the guys were talking about doing this for the Wellington bikes, it would be worth looking into for next year. The key would be getting lots of bikes/riders to share the cost. Apparently there are freighter ships that go between the ports all the time.

    Yes your right, it is really to late to do something now, we did talk about it earlier between ourselves but at the time it was too hard. For some of the other riders it was their first season and they were not to sure about the merits of making the trip. If we have another good meeting together at Taupo this Xmas, like last year. I will push to get something happening for a trip to CHCH.

    I've carried most of the bikes here and made one trailer trip. The rideras of those bikes did the grab-a-seat thing and flew.

    I trying to get some of the Chch crew to Taupo, and more of the Welly crew too.
