A couple of the organsiers are from Chch, so we might have to try to arrange a group. I'll contact them and get them to put a message here. Cheers.

Im going down. We should meet at say the Caltex in Yaldhurst Rd at 1pm and ride down as a group via Sheffield and the Rakaia Gorge. About a 2 hr ride.

Sounds good. Do you have a preference for how you want to get there? It's gonna dictate where we meet.

You guys put on a great little rally. awesome effort! Shame about the lack of numbers but that was the only downside. I do hope y'all keep your chins up and have another crack next year.

If I hadn't been such a sad ass last night, I might have had a chance at a prize!

I may actually enter my bike in the "Best presented Guzzi" next time around tho.

See y'all next year
