Welcome to another week everyone,
Well it is Spring and that means that the upcoming road tours can throw up any kind – if not all types – of weather at once.

The Yunca Junior Tour of Southland is the first cab of the ranks next weekend so we have plenty to talk about there – on we go!

All welcome tonight - Tuesday 26th, at 6.30pm in the Champions Lounge.
