Wellington Convoy to Nats


KKtrips

Recommended Posts

Making a list and checking it twice - who has been naughty and who has been nice..

Flick me your name if you are keen to join a convoy and I'll add you to the list - then we can make sure everyone is there before we roll

Thursday - not sure on when people are leaving but someone pipe up if they want to lead a convoy..

Friday - meeting at the the weighstation at 10am on Friday - we'll stop for gas a couple of times and regular loo stops every couple of hours or so. The key is to have everything you are going to need for the trip up and Friday night/Saturday morning already brought on Thursday night.

Pretty sure Dave Broccoli and Grinter are heading up Thursday night..

Also will Cheffy be home by 8.30ish on that Thursday night to take the 4-6 people staying there??

I'll lead them like the Pied Piper to your place - still assuming its all good?

OK - cut and paste from the South Island thread..

Plan for the weekend..

Thursday

Ferry arrives Wellington.

I'll meet SI guys at the ferry terminal at 4.30pm

Providing the boat is NOT late we should be all parked in a group and ready to roll by 5pm

If there is time we will shoot to the veledrome for a quick look (its 20 minutes across town in traffic to get there)

Veledrome area is shut down at sunset so we will be kicked out at 6pm latest

Head to pizza joint for Welly meet (15-20 minutes across town again)

After a feed, at about 7.30/8ish we'll have half an hour to get any last minute food/booze shopping done at the supermarket (same site as pizza meet)

Beave will then lead convoy to his place.

I'll lead a convoy to Russells house then on to mine.

Friday

As my place is the furtherest away we will need to leave my place around 8.30am, collecting Russells guys about 20 minutes later. Beavers guys will convoy with him as he is only 15 minutes from the weighstation.

Convoy roll out time is now set for 9.30am from the Plimmerton weighstation. (its about 25 minutes up the motorway from Wellington)

First planned stop is for 15-20 minutes at Hunterville for stretch, fuel (if needed), quick feed and loo break.

(meeting the Manawatu guys there to roll out at 12)

Second planned stop is Turangi for 20-30 minutes to refuel and loo break.

(want to be in Taupo by 3.30 so roll out from Turangi at 2.15ish)

From there the weekend is fairly self explanatory and follow the pack..

Any questions?
