Right.. sorry for the delay in getting info..

The Staging Post.. (40ish ks south of Kaikoura.. or north of Cheviot)

available for the 8th Dec!! approx 38 beds plus oooooodles of camping space!!! plus a few caravans.

$15 pp/pn

Spa pool in the trees, plus the swimming pool will be ready to be used! Tennis court. An awesome spitroast pit too.. we have had several pigs/sheep cooked to perfection over it!!

(one Plains doo, I had a wild bore hind quarters bungied to my packrack... defrosting on the trip down...

)

Great facilities, kitchen etc. Gypsy said they have done a heap of work on the place lately, painting, carpeting etc!!

There is a large lounge area for socialising.. (bigger than Otematata)!

The new front block is being kept spare for possible walkers on the Kaikoura Costal Track tours.. but may or maynot be anyone booked in when we could be there. Doesn't affect where we would be however, as the areas are VERY separate!!

Anyway.. there's the info!

You could zig-zag inland and out if you wanted.

Me? I sometimes fined it sothing to just cruise without having to put any effort into planning my lines through a corner, braking, changing gear etc... just chill out, relax and cruise - maybe it's an old person thing?

long straights wouldn't be as bad if I had cruise coontrol (which im working on) or they corners in them

**xknuts** · 28th May 2007, 19:37

Thanks Jantar. BUT why would Kwaka12R vote for every single one?? Because he is NOT coming?? Well thats my view. Makes interesting viewing, let the choice begin! Look for ya all under the KB flag on Saturday

**T.W.R** · 28th May 2007, 19:42

What the problem with a couple of straights & 160kmh bends

plus you got to remember every road leads somewhere

Alternatively, he's equally happy with all the options. I'm like that too, but I selected the half that most appealled, yet I'll ride to any of them.

Im keen to come, and am pretty easy on where it is.

Well I did not vote for this one, but all that seems pretty appealing as well, so I could have cast a vote here as well.

I wonder if this is all a bit to diplomatic... but hell I am looking forward to it where ever we may all be.

But most of all I am looking forward to this weekend and the Brass... bring on the snow I sayas long as it is not my bike that goes down rubber side up!!!!
