KB Gathering (North, South, East & West) - Queens Birthday '07

**Ms Piggy** · 24th March 2007, 09:26

Love to! But like White Trash said the last time we stayed at Tokanuu (can't recall the name of the place) the proprietor asked for more $$ when we were leaving and I think the organiser ended up footing the bill. Had a blast though!

I seem to recall being dripping wet and having to peel my clothes off when I went to the loo at Bulls McD's but the weather was sweeeeet on the ride back.

Oh hang just looked at my calendar and it looks like my final 3 essays are due the week after

To save ourselves a lot of misery and hardship (and so no-one can rip us off) and the fact that I ain't going to be paying for someone's wild weekend

- everyone will be responsible for their own bookings (just like we did on the Northern Exposure Tour etc...) If we can all decide on one spot and then I will get the details up here so you can start booking in when you feel the need, the sooner the better........... however, as 80% people on here leave things to the last minute, don't come crying if the place is booked out to other tourists...

So is everyone happy about where we are going to have it or do you wanna go somewhere else?

I could be keen but have to see if I can ride by then..... Hopefully.... It will be a great trip. Can catch up with colabitch and the rest of the crew.
Have to check schedule also.

A multi-day event should have some mandatory meet and mingle requirements. Otherwise things could get a bit cliquey. If it's just a weekend of drunken debauchery and squid-bike hooning, then we're probably past our use-by dates. But if it's something like Quasi's National Park gig from last year, then it may have some appeal in the Hitcher household.

Cant see any reason not to be there and can see a number of reasons for being there

Count me in, details pending

**Nasty** · 26th March 2007, 13:51

Sounds like its coming together in the right way .. so me and the grub should be in .. I know he just wants to go riding ... so he would love it!!

The lastest..........

Got an email back from the Oasis.
Goes something along the lines of: Sorry we do not have enough accomodation for 60 people - otherwords, F#$k off we don't want you here.

Thats fine with me. Meeky Mouse suggested we check out the Taupo Hot Pools and Ive just emailed Debretts Holiday Park and see what they can do for us.......

Any other places we orda check out?

Just tryin to think of places that are central, with hotpools and good roads around. What about Rotorua? I can't say what the roads are like up there, but it's central, there is heaps of hot pools and lots of places for accomodation

I think Taupo would be better

Central to everyone,
I am also working on an Event in Taupo that weekend that may involve a few KBers (they just dont know about it yet)

What about Morere, about half way between Gisborne and Wairoa, not far from Mahia. Hot pools, camping ground, wicked roads!

**Hitcher** · 26th March 2007, 20:01

What about the camping ground at Turangi? They host the Grand Challenge every year, so can't be too averse to gatherings of bikers. Plenty of food and beverage outlets within walking/staggering distance. Just a short ride up the road to Tokaanu's hot springs...
