Hey fullas,
Just trying to get organised and playing with some spreadsheets, I have recorded interest from the following names:

Myself, 1855, Alf, Umopom, the pom, MXNUT, Trailsrider x2, SHoshoni, Socialities x6 (incl Pomgolian, Jon the pom and others), Transalper, Woodman, Bushy, Cynna, Topo, tigerpig x2, Brp, Steelie, Dr Phil, Pete whose not sure if he's from Blenheim or chc, Whatastoner, Adux, Michael E,Underground, Mountie, nic, peachvw, timg, umopom, ADVGD, pouakai

I make that 39, if you're not on the list let me know.

Just a reminder I'll be collecting 4x $10 in koha's for each of the 4 stations per person at the briefing / Blackford Rd (2x $20 is fine) so plse have that handy

Make sure you are fuelled up and ready to go at Caltex Russley prior to my 8:30 briefing, we'll be on our way shortly after that and won't be waiting for stragglers (we'll see them at Fairlie), we will be riding using a pointsman system with myself leading and a nominated rotating tailend charlie (volunteers would be appreciated)

See you then,
Cheers Matt

Hey Leigh,

Route is the same as last year so unless the river level is to high we will again be doing the boulder hoping up the Orari River
See you then

Hiya Matt looks like Off-spring & I may be joining you as well, I got to be in CHCH on the 17th so might as well tag along

Heya Matt

Where is the official lunch spot this year?, the pub was a good feed and nice cold drink last year, happy to do the same but thought I would ask for the guys who haven't done the ride yet.

If you have organised a place to go then we should support them as a group.

Sounds good, I found the picture and web link https://maps.google.co.nz/maps?q&lay...CA&gl=NZ&hl=en

There was some confusion last year but if everyone can check the link out we should be all good
