The Cold Duck Motorcycle Rally is on again next weekend, last year I had to work and so I booked 2 weeks off this year to make sure I had the time.

Starts Friday, motor on down to Waipawa (very small town) and then head towards the coast, park in a field with a few hundred other crazy riders and set up the tent.
Booze, food, entertainment all in the one spot, pub crawl ride on Saturday to half a dozen country pubs, burn-out comps, poker run....should be fun.

Night time rock bands and amature strip show, think I'll leave Jaffa at home, she might not understand all this carry-on.

First time for me on this rally but one of the guys I'm riding with it will be his 13th so it's been happening for quite a while.
Will take the camera and post some shots, aparently the Harley guys don't talk to anyone and no one talks to them.....suits me as long as they park their industrial tractors well away from my tent.
