Please let all riders know that there will be NO BEER at the Event on Saturday.

 

This is no fault of Hakahana Trails.

 

Rather spread the word and bring your own - and save disappointment.

Its going to be HOT!

 

Apologies.

Ok, so still no seeding mail??

Dirty Hippo will be at Hakahana again.

 

We will again give away 5 shirts in a lucky draw, with slightly different rules this time.

 

This time we will also let the winners know by SMS and they will have until prize giving to come claim their price. We realise that its impossible to claim your price within 30 mintues if you are still out riding

 

If you do receive an SMS around prize giving and you, by any change, are still riding, just SMS us back and we will hold your prize for you until end of day.

 

Good luck to everyone riding tomorrow.

 

Remember, it's just a hill...

Who's fault is it then

[vinylguy]

they should just have beer ect and make it a donation for the beer.... ie you are not selling it

 

some will give too little some will give too much....

There should be no reason for organisers to run out of water. All waterpoints on VG was close to a road. They can get one person with a bakkie and a watertank to service the waterpoints and make sure they always have at least some water. I'm sure the farmers in the area wont mind if they fill up the tank with fresh water if they ask them thus they wont even need to drive very far.

 

I recall riding past a water bottling company on the left on one of the district roads at Van Gaalens race. I don't remember which company it was, but they would have made themselves look good if they had got into the spirit of the day and set up a water point outside the entrance. I suppose we don't all think the same way though...

I actually bought Coke mid race at a little bottle store (the single track section next to railway tracks ) . Not sure if it's the same one. Some other riders filled up their bottles with water in the store. There was only an old tannie as the cashier, i guess it never crossed her mind to put a table out where the riders pass to make a killing.

 

However, the funny thing is, the week after the Nissan Van Gaalens, was the Rhino MTB race which went past there too (the exact same route next to the railway lines) . The organizers actually put their waterpoint right there in front of the store , which made so much sense. I have no idea why the Nissan organisers had the waterpoint like 2-3km further on some random corner.
