Magpie Madness Rally 2012

[cruza]

Bloody hell Dangerous , your getting alot of people confused.

The general view from get together at taitapu few weekends ago, was meet at yaldhurst tavern carpark and go via scenic inland route . Stick with well known roads . darfield- glentunnel - methven- mayfield ending at geraldine for lunch then on to rally site early afternoon.
That still is the basic plan. From a chat with folks today .10AM is the departure time , turn up about 15min beforehand fuelled and ready to go.
cruisey ride , quite afew 250cc bikes and "new"ish riders, trailbikes and of course big bikes. there will be a tailend charlie , and about 2 stops mid route.
no doubt we'll run into others along the way and at lunch in Geraldine .That still gets us there for lunch around mid day. There is no road captain or other shite, just group of friends doing the normal rally thing , See there is few posts by newbies , your welcome to join in , anyways a fun weekend .

Have to scrounge a tent. Girlfriend said that girls don't need tents, but not sure about the expected price required to share. hehe.

A small tent from the warehouse is probably cheaper than a quart of whiskey, Im sure there are a couple of other single girls who might be encouraged to share, a sleeping bag is probably more important.

If you get stuck I have a tent you can borrow.

I would pick a bottle of wiskey,rum,burbon,type drink would get you in most of the dodgy buggers tents

Whew! For a second I almost thought that you were refering to me...

Got the sleeping bag. Wasn't actually thinking of alcohol as the price of a bed. But then my bike pants are so bloody tight and hard to get off that nothing else likely anyway. haha.

Earplugs are another essential for bike rallies, as there are some hum dinger snorers that attend

I just thought it woukld be nice for a change for others to organise and pick us up on the way, but alas seems to much trouble, how I duno... dont cear either, ok fuck ya I do you know my passion n all for the rally seen (please excuse spelling and language as IM half cut due to having a evening less sprogs n missus, fark that was a good BBQ feed) ophhhhh where was I?
Ohh yeah... few meeting at ours and we will be en route before ya know it... and cruz. its onle ever been a "just group of friends" doing there own shit with a few new commers joining in, never had a complaint yet, but since the quakes nothings been normal...
