South Island RAG Rally

Geraldine TOP 10 Holiday Park, 39 Hislop St, Geraldine

Friday 26 – Sunday 28 October 2018

This year’s South Island “Rough as Guts” Rally in situated in the pretty country town of Geraldine on the scenic inland route (SH72) about 130 km south of Christchurch.

The general plan is to make you own way to the TOP 10 Holiday Park on Friday, spend Saturday riding or whatever takes your fancy, then head home after breakfast on Sunday.

For road riders it’s the gateway to the Starlight Highway leading to the UNESCO International Dark Skies Reserve at Tekapo and onwards to Mount Cook and the Southern Lakes.

There’s little to disappoint the adventurous as well, with heaps of gravel and spectacular scenery in the surrounding hill country and passes. The three Gs’ will pull something together that’s easily doable for all who want to tag along.

At the site, cabins are available but if you’re planning on camping you will need to bring:

• a tent and bedroll
• sleeping bag
• cup, plate and eating utensils

You look after yourself for dinner on Friday night, there’s plenty to choose from and there will be others around to hook up with for a meal in town.

A contribution of $20 per person will be appreciated to cover the shopping we’ll need to do for the BBQ on Saturday, and breakfast on the Sunday!

We’ll have fruit juice and a few beers on hand, but if you want anything stronger than that you will need to bring it.

Book your camp site or cabin yourself. Just call 03-693 8147 or book on the website at http://geraldinetop10.co.nz/. Let them know you’re with the BMW Club and they’ll try to get us accommodated close together.

Look forward to seeing you there.
