Any update on this idea ? I'm keen to join in and I expect there will be a couple of others from Hamilton, but need to know travel timetable so I can book the right accommodation in Palmy. Shane Hobson Ph 021 221 3999 Fx 07 957 0040 shane(a)liteup.co.nz On 7/01/2007, at 9:08 PM, Jo Booth wrote:

The idea was floated at last weeks Curry in Auckland about hiring a bus to travel to NZNOG, as there would possibly be quite a number of people between Auckland and Palmerston North interested in a less stressful and cheaper means of getting there.
While they don't offer an Auckland -> Palmerston in one day trip, a colleague recently took a trip from Wellington (to Taihape) using nakedbus.com - and got his complete return trip for $2.70. Checking it out further this evening I note there are seats available from Wellington to Palmerston North on NZNOG dates for the same price - $2 for return trip plus 70c booking fee. kj94n3 seems to be the magic code.
Worth a look if you're not taking a car, and need more beer money on arrival.
