**cowboyz** · 4th January 2008, 18:02

as far as I am aware Dragem jeans are not acceptable for the track. Just to be sure ask in the manfield thread and someone official like will answer.
Good ride tonight. Bit windy but had a good time on some familar roads. Others have gone for coffee in town but I piked and come home.

umm from the other thread re track day

==========
Just rock up on the day, no pre-bookings, we use the “old” track layout. ( not the extended track )

Just $40 for the day

Sorry no cheques

Sign in and Scrutineering Strictly 9am to 9:45am

Bikes presented for scrutineering must be of WOF standard

All glass to be taped. Sorry no sidecars

Bikes must be under 85db to comply with Manfeild regulations

All riders must comply with the following:

Minimum age of 15

Must hold and present a NZ Motorcycle Licence

Minimum gear: Motorcycle Boots, Draggin Jeans, Motorcycle Jacket, Gloves, and Helmet

CD’s reserves the right to refuse entry and/or to expel any rider who does not comply with event rules on the day.
===============

so it would appear draggin jeans accepted

good to met nobras too .. will see you on some more rides

Yea we enjoyed the ride tonight although a little windy, was hardly any on the eastern side of the ranges though
Good to meet you Nobras, im sure well see plenty more of you in time
I thought the brewers apprentice was a dam good place to have a chinwag, nice big table we could all sit round and plenty of room, Cafe Cuba is ok but nice to not have to sit on the footpath, I am starting to enjoy a bit more comfort as i grow wiser

Dam shame we missed the Hamilton crew, next time........
Enjoy track day tomorrow, dont think ill make it but who knows

I am a little tempted i have to admit but my son is heading back down south today so need to be home to say goodbye

Friday night ride, no one else has made any suggestions yet so ill put in my 10 cents worth
How about Leave Ashhurst at 6.00 pm and head to Cheltnam, over vinager hill, back down the main road towards PN then swing back towards Feilding through Halcombe to PN to a Cafe. If Cafe Cuba is still not open, back to Brewers Apprentice.
Any Takers..........
