Fun run this Sunday 4th May
Discussion
CLNZ are organising a fun run through the North West and ending up at Murawai Beach - Gannet Colony. As per other Lotus runs they dont mind well behaved Phers joining in on the fun
Dust off the P&J we could probably use some more numbers to make it a good day. If the weather is rubbish I wont be there otherwise its business as usual 
Be at the North Harbour Stadium at or before 10.30 am pls.

You should.. makes for some great conversation. I had a nice old gentleman approach me at Westgate shopping centre the other week (not the trench coat variety
) he must have been sitting in his car and facing the rear end my green machine. I came back to my car and he started prattling on about how he used to own a white S4 Loti 7 and did I know of it. 
Well there are a quite a few white S4's about.



Looks like there is a cycle race out West for whomever is setting the route

Great spotting G, will pass on to the event organiser for revised route.
Did you have relatives/friends involved in the Whenuapai accident ?? We certainly heard all the sirens
I had only met Wayne a couple of times but he was good mates with Phil who is in that club and is also building an ultralight. Phil's coming up from Rangiora so I'll be trucking him around a bit.Did you have relatives/friends involved in the Whenuapai accident ?? We certainly heard all the sirens

If he heads back on Saturday night I might be in for a run

Oh well only a handful of die hards turned up today. With intermittent rain the plan was to go to the stadium carpark for a catch up and then go home if the weather persisted to be wet! Big tires in the wet with lots of grunt aint much fun so learning to keep the turbos off boost and under 3k rpm was my personal challenge for today
Ive never done this before
. Naturally got talked out of going home by the others and decided a change of plan. Got through some nice twisties over Albany then our leader did the right thing by pulling up for a wet road review. One of our members cars nearly got rear ended by the other in a full skid past him
so we decided to take the straight roads through to the west coast beach. Lattes, flat whites, nice hot food and run banter was all good at the local cafe there. No piccies sorry.




Roads were real greasy and slippery in town too (snow was just up on the hills), had a few moments playing silly buggers and getting a good deal more crossed up than intended. Nothing unrecoverable though

Shore St for those of you who know Dunedin
