anyone from the south island care to add commentary?

this was originally suggested as so as to get the north and south hooking up. Wopass has limited 15 wagons to his version of pureora, with several from the north already putting their hands up.... so are any of the southerners actually intending on heading up?

If we all go to Puerora then we can save gobush until summer? should be ok to allow more than 15 on Wopass's trip?, probably get a few from south of taupo? thoughts?

UPDATE

Ok Have decided to postpone this until SUMMER, and I want to get up there and have a nosey round and get some pics and stuff for you....Summer is better as your missus is more likely to join you and that means you can be allowed to go and stuff....

There are plenty of other things to do up there as well, ie the LUGE and stuff, and looking at the other options as well, ie maybe the chicks can spend the day at the hot pools and the mud baths or something whilst we play in the mud...



Don't panic though WOPASS is running a trip that weekend 5 mins down the road and the thread is here http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/modules ... 4394#74394

Please have a think about possible weekends to run this, start saving up for it, mark it in your calender, book your leave, start grovelling with your missus.

WILL ADVISE MORE ON THIS AS IT COMES TO HAND
