Do you mean four points
it encompasses the four points (funnily enough) of the compass (ha, get it!?) of the north island
so thats where we going; lake ferry, east cape, west side of egmont and the far north, total distance is expected to be around 3200km ish
entries closed a coupl eof weeks ago i think

It's organised by the Manawatu Ulysses Club, of which none of the KB (and now McR) regulars are members AFAIK (we're all too young and handsome! ). And unfortunately entries closed a couple of weeks ago as Yod mentioned.

It was mint then, and it will be again. Really looking forward to getting on the bike for 4 days and just riding.

I am still in 2 minds about southern X. Have to see how expensive xmas is first. Planned on selling one of the kids to raise the money to go but Yod started making his own.
update. just checked my mail. Got my rego. there is no card in there this year! Did you get a card sarge? I got a ribbon, and a piece of paper with the points on it and a number.

Nope, thought it looked pretty sparse.
oh well. last time we got a little cardboard card that we had to get stamped. I guess we just take the instructions with us and write on the back.
I'm hoping to do the Southern Cross next year, sounds like a great ride.

It sure is - I've got 2 under my belt and will be there next year. There's some write-ups on my website about the '05 & '07 events.
