Early Reports from Invercargill Burt Munro Challenge

First we hear of a club out of Auckland, Deus ex Machina. They love to make custom builds and have created some very interesting designs. Mostly, they fill their showroom with 1970's era motorcycles which they then tweak and twist into a rather individual piece of art. At the Burt Munro Challenge, the team will do their best to win each and every event - but, their primary goal will be to have fun!

Next, an interesting person showed up at the event in Invercargill - an almost perfect double for Burt Munro himself. Sandy Begbie, who has been riding motorcycles for most of his 80 years, also brought along his wife and three daughters. Many other riders also came into town in preparation for the events this weekend.
