If you need somewhere to stay theres a motor camp next to Turoa's place....

At this stage I may be lacking room as I'm bringing gear over for the brothers.
Is the gearbox in Nelson?

Have paid for the tickets, so once the money clears I will book the sailing

$225 for a return sailing on the Interislander for car/2 adults

Has that guy in the blue surf sorted out proper towhooks yet???? (I think it was him from memory that dodn't have them last trip :roll:

Post by **Mark** » Sat Jan 27, 2007 9:20 pm

Wacko, I'll be going down to Nelson and returning 3/4 March if you can wait that long. I'm getting the boat shipped back from Nelson to Wgtn and would be able to put it in that if you want.

Meeting Time: 9.30am
Meeting Place: Cnr Haywards & Moonshine Rd (see liink to map on page 5 of this thread)
Drivers Briefing: 9.45
Trip Start: 10.00

So can I get a show of hands of who is coming? I will need to let RallyWoods know the numbers when I call them on Friday to finalise access details.

So far I know of:
Me
Stinky
MrO
WACKO??
blackbetty??

I just saw this on the CCVC website... so unless someone knows better - and can justify it, we'll obey it too:

We have been asked by the property owners of Rallywoods not to use Wong Way or Turbo Bog tracks. Vehicles playing in Turbo Bog affect residents water supply and the land on which Wong Way sits is of disputed ownership.

Yip that rule has been around for years, those tracks are so overgrown now you probly wouldnt bother even if you were allowed on them.

Hopefully I will be there, will let you know tonight.
Probably head over in the morning and do red rocks or something on Saturday to keep myself entertained, and head back Monday.
