The Burt Munro Challenge New Zealand Hill Climb in Southland has been cancelled due to bad weather, and tonight's drag racing event has been rescheduled for tomorrow. Since its inception in 2006, the rally has grown into one of Australasia’s largest all-round motorcycle rallies. A post on the organisation's Facebook page this morning said the hill climb could not be run due to strong winds. Challenge volunteers (from left) Sam Withy, Heather Ryan and Kirsten Hoyle take shelter at the entrance to climb this morning.
