Well this crazy event is on again this year. Fastest Speed on Coldest Day
2011 Champion Dan BMC Poynton says
"Soooooooo excited!!!!!! Not going to be able to sleep tonight!!!!!!! I've been waiting 9 months for tomorrow to come!!!"
He has been in high altitude training whilst others are planning trips to Mt Bulla and Tasmania all over a $1.50 Plastic Monkey!!
Thanks to the boys at SHQ - we have a number of GPS's spare to help people out if they want to join in the fun.[}:)]

That's insulting Old Salty...
Firstly the monkey is not made of plastic and secondly
it cost $3 not $1.50 as indicated... We wouldn't want to seem cheap and tacky!
No postings yet... Its way too tropical today to get any significant
numbers!
Shocked to find carry over champ Dan BMC Poynton warming himself in the car whilst others went out and posted times
Is this part of Dan's cunning plan or is he going soft as Kato has suggested
Needs to be wind to post a score. Bloody forecasters!!! I knew an E'ly in winter was too good to be true[}:)].
At least by sitting in the car i'm still on 0 whilst Daz is on -0.3 after floating around the inlet for a bit.
How about a 35 knot Southeast gust at the Fish Club just now?
how to ensure he attends an urgent call to melbourne in the morning?
A cattle prod from the back seat of the car to keep him pointed in the right direstion..
Not superstitious or anything but Sunday's lack of wind wasnt an accident....
Whatever you do, don't spook the monkey!
