Post by: EML on August 09, 2011, 11:38:29 am: First of all what does Kukutauaki mean and can we bring some outfits???
Just a note on the 2 day format----We just had the Conondale Classic last weekend and it ran over 2 days with 2 races saturday and one on sunday followed by some novelty relay events and a "last man standing" event at the end. The reason I mention it is as not only did it make for a more laid back event but it also encouraged folks to travel further to the event and it also wound up nice and early so we could get home. Not to mention some frivolity on the sat night. Great format all round.
sorry about the thread hike.

That's my choice of airline for the AU-NZ journey too. The best value for money in the air.
