    I searched for hall, hall Wairarapa, 1898, websearch, image search, searched for halls on Google maps (found an aweful lot except this one), hall Featherston, hall Greytown, hall Gladstone and any other town name I could think off.
    Nothing, nadda, niks......

Especially after a full day at work. Your welcome to it boy's.
    Me thinks telling Dakar to HTFU may have been the Catalyst to "Rapa Week" for the Kapiti Tag which we sometimes share with you folk .........

    On the off chance Quasi don't appear to give ya a clue !

    Think 1/4 mile sprints and your close but not quite smoking that cigar !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    OK got it now. Now I also know why I couldn't find it. The marker on Google Maps for this hall was in the wrong place. It was right on the intersection of the two roads, about 200 metres from the actual place. Problem with that was that if you looked in streetview, there is actually a building on that corner which looks like a hall but not the one where are looking for, so I discounted this location. So I have now updated the location in Google Maps in case someone else in the future might be looking for this location.

    November eh? Sound like a plan, see if the Trumpy really is good for 260. It get up near that speed (indicated) mighty quickly so it may do it.

    Now..... fishing or the tag??
    I love holidays.

    It appears the Rapa riders dont like playing in their playground either. Ah well - looks like it gong to be a welly week/coastal weekend thing

    No Quasi, It doesn't need to be that way. I'm quite happy for it to end up in the Rapa at the week-ends. The fun is in the ride going to get it. But being from the UK, I know how black ice can cause chaos on the roads. And that hill is not good in the dark especially when the temp drops. It's certainly the last place I would want to go down when I'm by myself.
    There is also the time factor. On the week-end, people have more time available to go wider afield. Mid week, family/work commitments limit riding time, so the need to keep the tag reachable in a reasonable short time frame becomes more important.
    Once daylight saving kicks in and the weather warms up a bit (at night), then distance becomes less important.

    Just my 2c worth.
    I'm only wearing black until they develop something darker
