Roll-call
Who's racing? I am in one of (or the) OUMBC team. No idea what it is called, but should be a fun race.

Have loved it the last two years though. Awesome course, fantastic atmosphere. Brilliant. Well worth travelling down from ChCh to.

Been keeping an eye on the forecast for a few days now, was horrified to discover that they are forecasting snow showers to 600 metres for the Saturday! Rode there last Sunday, sunny, calm and mild. Don't mind the cold so much, as long as it is reasonably dry.

And Naseby's 2000 feet above worry level 
Have a good race guys, its a great course, really enjoyed it last year. Hopefully be able to make it done next year (probably instead of the hanmer 12hr)

Given the weather in Dunno's and the forecast, it would take a brave young man for the nudie lap.
Shrinkage factor would be high!!

Just posted a few pics in the gallery http://www.vorb.org.nz/photos-album-3044.html
Snow was falling and settling on the ground one hour before the start. Overall it was cold all day, but the track was pretty good condition and improved during the day. Today (Sunday) was heaps warmer and sunny. It was hard to believe it was snowing the morning before.
