Mt Victoria 20 Jul 05

Course Planner He writes...

A great turnout and some excellent technique at the World Record Pizza Eating Attempt atop Mt Victoria last night. Excellent all-round culinary skills were observed from all diners on the night, coping with the sophisticated dishes on the menu, some not at all familiar to the palates of the 24 hour all-you-can-eat brigade. (Although a handful of diners only counted 4 spiral hooks at dish #36, but have been excused due to the overcrowding at that table). Some dishes were indeed hard to find, particularly the Orange Fettucine hidden amongst the Spinach Pizza but diners coped extremely well with the conditions ie the romantically lit but slightly underheated mess area.

Even with a sole-diner penalty, Irish International Bill Edwards managed to scoff his way through all but three dishes. Taking into account that Bill lost 5 minutes at dish#46, a ravioli-pizza in a shallow bowl, and that the remaining two dishes were very close to the mess hall, it is considered by local pundits to be extremely likely that he could have indeed devoured all 27 dishes on the menu and claimed the World Record. Behind Bill were local chefs Bryn Davies and Andrew McCarthy; 5 minutes behind them but with an equal dish tally were gourmands Matt & James Flannery.

Prior to the Pizza Eating Record Attempt some diners were observed warming up for extended periods of up to 90 minutes in the forest. Which doesn't seemed to have affected their appetite at all.

Well done all and thanks to Michael Wood for drawing the menu up and assisting to set the table, and waiter Mike Sheridan and others. Results (bonus points 5 per minute, penalties 10 per minute and 10% solo)

Winner's routes:
Al Cross (1st) writes, "forgot my map (to bring to work)... but I can tell you that I dragged my mapless running partner down South Karori Rd and over to 43 - up Leaping Lizard and across the western ridge flank of the MTB park grabbing all contrrols on route to the Makara Rd saddle. Then all controls in the forested area behind Karori Park - controls on the park itself then a 20, and a 40 and 5 pointer in the residential area to the east on the way home."
