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.

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.
