502175 2006-11-26 02:00:00 Wyndham has the street races today. Its packed.
One accident so far - not major.

Everything from old 1920s bikes to Harleys to Motocross bikes (But street racing them) to Formula bikes.

Rather than post links to my amateur videos, the pros were out filming everything so no doubt there will be better clips to view.


You should have come on your bike WInston! Even if it was just for the display area.

502176 2006-11-27 06:56:00 And what a great day it was too - especially the tour of Pctek's house and garden! I confess driving rather than riding to the race day but had my 11yr old son along. Haven't seen motorcycle street racing before - dangerous and thrilling stuff.

The Bert Munro Rally weekend was an enormous success with about 2500 motorcyclists from all over NZ.

Cool! My husband loves Glenham. If we didn't live here already he'd move.
And there is the famous garden place so I've been told a thousand times. Will go up sometime.
