Well done, Ryan. I am glad it was a success and that you went through accident free.

Winter woolies seemed to be needed at times!!!

Thank you Bob, you should have come along for a look. Only snowed Sunday afternoon for a while, and light falls off & on Sunday night. Overall it was a good weekend, both weatherwise and event wise.


Thanks for ya comments Bob, after the issues and problems we went thru in the organising of this, I think it turned out very well.

And with all the support and offers of help for next years,it can only get better :wink:

yeah it was pretty good. although i'm still suffering from the return trip home!

Pumped those shitty SAT's up, two tubes were sticking through on the monday driving out. one lasted till just past palmy. dropped the LR off in otaki as the spare was on and didnt trust the other. came up a week later to pick it up, other one blew 5 mins down the road, then in town took off from the lights and the new water pump still had its long bolts on (which i didnt shorten at the time) so that chewed my fan out! Sounded like the auto fell out on the road!

all in all a wicked weekend, just the trip home was a bitch :evil:
