    Welll, had a doofus moment and thought the Horror-rata was THIS weekend, got all keen and had our sleeping bags packed and then.....found out it is NEXT weekend when we're both working!!!

    So we won't be there - but we might go on a two person rally to somewhere anyway...like say Naseby to check out the suitability of this years KB Rally.


    Dang, will get it right one day when it comes to days off/rallies.!!

    I stuffed up as well.
    We will not be there even for a day trip as we are driving down south to Oamaru with the dogs for their 1st birthday with their up to ten brother's and sister's.

    So about twenty plus or minus two Wolf Hounds, will be running around the farm and the owners will be drinking to their health with Kilkenny's (breeders kennel name) beer and Bourbon.
    Feel the fear and do it anyway

    Don't confuse education with intelligence.
    There are alot of highly educated idiots out there.

    Well the rally is all done and dusted. Another year, and it was better than the last, the old site down the road, was still way better. But anyways it was done.
    The music was good from what I remember, the company similer, the exotic girls were there,Exotix but nothing like last year. No jelly and no guards on the bridge giving the heave ho!
    The wind was not there, but the sun was!!! and that made it great. The bro in law, musta got hit by the drink, the sun and went zonko outo! And that bought out the surfers on his back, sum humping, and dragging back to the confines of tent bliss to sleep the rally away.

    There was surfing in the late afternoon, Surfin, where da waves

    Indeed a suitably good night away so close to home.
    Check out the rest of the picks by hitting on any of the attached images here.
    I said in 07 I wont be doin 08.... now 09 seems like a posibility.

    it was just my luck to miss out on entering the hardluck competition if there was one

    started off ok after a hard night at work- took the mv out early to set up the tent then go for a decent ride. got back to the pub to be informed that my back tyre was half flat. headed off home only to find that none of the petrol stations air pumps had the right angle to fit my valve. got home ok tho

    waited for my partner to finish work - was a busy day for her so she was a bit late. changed bikes and headed off. right at the end of the long straight on the way to mcleans island i find i have no clutch ..... manage to stop ok after the sharp bend

    no tension but the cable is ok. didnt have the right allen key to get at the adjuster but we managed to tape up the cable end out of its joint to get enough tension. get to the turn off to hororata and didnt see the cop car behind the bikes heading back towards chch - watched in the mirrors as he pulled a u turn. $230 later head off again

    rally was good but got a bit too drunk

    woke up and there was only one other tent left. was before twelve i think. i have never figured out why everone leaves rallies so early.....

    just before heading back to the main highway my temporary clutch fix gives out and i have to practice my clutchless stop again. gave up rang the AA and waited about an hour for the truck to arrive. got home safe and sound

    apart from that had a great night
