Support the Top Guns of Bushlove
>> Monday, February 22, 2010
You can spend all year training to be the Top Gun, but there eventually comes a time where you must put those skills to test on the battlefield. The men of Bushlove Top Gun are on standby, with battle set down for this Saturday 27th February. Our foes have flown in from throughout New Zealand. What will you say when your grandchildren ask about the Raboplus 2010 Mountain Bike National Championship Battle?
Latest intelligence says the combat is set to occur on the slopes of Mt Victoria. The best place to view the dogfights between the invaders and the brave men of Bushlove will be on the saddle of Mt Victoria (on the below map where the Mt Victoria tunnel crosses underneath Alexandra Road).

We have managed to intercept the battle plans of the invading force and have our pilots ready, we can now share our battle plans with you.
At 1000 hours the first battle will commence – Code name “XC Age Group Races”
Squadron Masters 1 – Tony “Tiger” Keith, Ricky “Slacky” Pincott, Jason Goldie, Davo “Maverick” Aldred
Squadron Masters 2 – Clive “Angry” Bennett, Jonny Waghorn
The second battle of the day will commence at 1400 hours – Code name “XC Proelite”
Squadron Proelite – Dave “Monolith” Sharpe, Edwin “Fastest Man” Crossling, Alistair “Iceman” Crossling
Our intelligence informs us that the invaders jets (aka mountain bikes) don’t work well in noisy conditions. So make some noise!
Bushlove is also fighting off the invaders with other members of the PNP airforce, be there to support all pilots from Wellington!

Lol at my inclusion in the Squadron. I hope I'm not so far back that no-one realises i've been gunned down into the bush.
Its great to have such an important race in the Capital. Go Go Go - All Bushies and Wellingtonions!
I shall make sure there is a TOP GUN salute team at all times for all Bushlove racers.

I can't believe I am going to miss the battle. I know that you will do me proud you dreamy guys
can't wait for the battle. my only hope is that we all finish it off with a topless volleyball match (davo you're goose in that one)
Ash - topless vollyball sounds dandy. You can go first.
Good work Top Gun communications.
It's going to be a mint day and even better with all our local supporters to cheer us on 10% lift for locals.
Max lulz if there is a real Volleyball comp on at Oriental Parade on race day and we can go down for some topless lulz on the court. Ash told me she was looking forward to getting her kit of the that scene.
Ricky's a legend, how he can find the time to be a pro-elite sifter in between opening for Faith No More during their Australasian concerts is beyond me.

Good luck topguns in your gunning for top ten alround.
Please be sure to post photos of the topless volleyball celebrations.
Lol @ scotty
It's looking like there is going to be an epic battle in Masters 2 with 2 time Karapoti winner (and possible past national champ, or runner up) Craig Lawn and ex pom pro Rob Kilvington. I know english rob has been training specifically for this race. Waggers and Angry better look sharp
