I'm in nelson so I'll meet up with the southerners on their way past.
Most likely just myself at this time (but you never know, there's plenty of time for a Datsun friendly lady to pop into my life between now and then haha)

I'm keen for the push right through (but I don't have the Lewis to deal with) so I'll go with the flow.
I just need to know about accommodation costs etc...
Cool we are just working out details and will put up costs etc as soon as possible
Cheers

Sweet! I'll keep an eager eye on this and the main nats threads! :beer:

Thanx Kobyn. How far to Ohakune from yours? As this is where the plan is to base ourselves this year.

I haven't yet, we get a discount if 5 or more cars, I will have to check on the easiest way to this with them. Looks like Bluebridge is the cheaper option.

Hey guys, in regards to accommodation, I'm going to put myself down for 2 adults at this stage (things are looking hopefull on the 'datsun friendly female' front :beer: )

So question, is anyone keen to go shares on a larger cabin etc to make it cheaper for us?

Not yet Vaughan, every time i think about it it is after hours. I did try a couple of months back at the top 10, they were meant to phone me back but didn't

A mate of mine from Auckland has just stayed there for skiing a couple of weeks back, looks like they had a house, am going to give him a call this week to see if it is something we can get. May work out cheaper if a few of us go in on a house.
