A picture paints a thousand words and I am a man of few words but here are some more.
About 40 people attended from Northland, New Plymouth, Tauranga, Te Puke, Stratford, Napier, Waikato and Auckland. The food was AWESOME. Clifford again doing his wonderful spit roast ably assisted by Greg, Jean, Wendy, Lesley and others. Lots of vegies (6 trays of roasteds), greens and salads to accompany the meat. About 6 tents were outside for those hardy souls. As for the trophy........... I wish you had never asked because yours truly dropped the LT in the driveway before we had even set off!! 😳 Only a few minor scratches, but oh the shame. It took myself, my wife and the lady across the road to lift the machine upright again. Anyway enough of that and back to the important stuff:- The rally consisted of lots of talk and stories all surrounding bikes and rides, some drinking, but most of all comraderie. Some were early risers to get back to Cambridge for the Toy run, others left a bit later to find their way to the Boatshed, Karapiro for lunch (some getting there by a very unplanned circuitous route), one to go south for his mother's 86th birthday and others just to wend their way home by various roads. A weekend enjoyed by all.
