All being good, Ray Clee will once again be there. Tony Rees should be recovered by then and if he is available he has said that he will come along. I might even see if Briggsy is available, maybe tempt a few more motard boys to come along.

I had that down for the 14th. Dunno why, that's a Wednesday. But 4th is a Sunday. Something strange going on.

**Sparky Bills** · 18th July 2005, 16:47

It's been a long day! The text has been rectified.

**Marknz** · 18th July 2005, 17:48

Count me in.

And as a non wheelier, I'm more than happy to stand by the pit wall and watch the other lads giving it a go.

Keep the wheelie session on I say.

Cheers
Mark

**JohnBoy** · 18th July 2005, 17:58

i can neither confirm nor deny my presence....

will have to wait and see, do we need to book ahead?? sorry for asking a lame quest but i wasn't around last time

**MOTOXXX** · 18th July 2005, 18:20

sweet action

ill be there

MD · 18th July 2005, 19:29

Thanks again Chris for a good format

. I sure will do what I can to make the September day and I know some others keen to return. I think you will find most riders got enough track time as it was (knackered by day's end). So as for the wheelie session I think the break was welcomed, but hey I would say that. My avatar sums that up. Hard yacker pulling in from the wheelie session to go straight back out for the next ride session.
Where was the hot drinks dispenser? It was cold you know.
Cheers
MD

I pm'd ya my suggestions Chris

**jimbo600** · 18th July 2005, 20:08

I guess that I don't qualify as the special guest then.

Yeah I'm in. That last effort was primo. Keep the wheelie session as it breaks the day up and encourages normal folk to act like goons. Ray volunteering his time again is a bonus. It's bloody great that guys like Clee and Bernard take time out to come down and watch us lot wobble around the track.

Suppose I'd better order my K5 1000 soon so it arrives in time for the 4th.

Frosty email me a entry form theres a good lad.

**Deano** · 19th July 2005, 08:11

I've already entered - I'm pissed I missed the last one.

LB · 19th July 2005, 08:27

.
.
Hamish and I will def be there to watch.

My 0.02: the wheelie session was great and I'd like to see it stay.

**Slipstream** · 19th July 2005, 09:36

Me and the Lil-Monsta will be there with bells on. She's mad about bikes ya know...not her mother...oh no

...

.... yeah right

Will have my video camera there again to tape on to any bike that wants some footage of the track...and the sky if they can wheelie

**rammstein636** · 19th July 2005, 10:40

I'd definantly be keen. I'm slowly building a bike for racing but that's a wee way off, is there any track time where I could just take on my normal bike without perhaps thrashing it ( What I mean is do people get p1ssed off at slower riders )

**Deano** · 19th July 2005, 13:20

There are three categories of rider, so you could start in novice and see how it goes ?

I'd like to see you *not* thrash it after a few laps though...

**loosebruce** · 19th July 2005, 16:28

Count me in for the September day, i'll try and drag some Aklder's down as well, but book me in for sure.
Where do i send money to? no Deano i wont accept your account number.

**White trash** · 19th July 2005, 16:52

Yup. I'm in for this puppy. New paint job and all.

Keep the wheelie session, Chris. If people know there's going to be a "show off" session during the day, they're less likely to stunt it up during track sessions. I know from other KBers it makes the non wheeliers feel inadequit and small peckered when we wheelie past them.

Can I have an entry form, either from you Chris or that Frosty fellah?

(Oh yeah, Tony? Do you ever want your van back or can I keep it?)

**FROSTY:Me** · 19th July 2005, 17:02

tHE DEAL HERE IS GUYS THERE ARE 20 DEFINITE kb PLACES AVAILABLE ON A FIRST COME FIRST SERVED BASIS.
i AM GOING TO BLOCK BOOK AND PAY FOR THOSE 20 PLACES.
Money talks and bullshit walks in this case Im sorry so first in with the $50 gets a definite place

**slob** · 19th July 2005, 18:54

Well I'm definitely keen, so you can add me to the head count!

**jimbo600** · 19th July 2005, 20:01

Bloody hell Sep 4th is going to be cool as fuck. I've been told that my K5 1000 will be here by then. Just got to run it in first.

Hey some people can pull wheelies, others can spell.

**Racey Rider** · 20th July 2005, 08:55

will try and make up the numbers, if bike and money allows.

AHH BOLLOX MIKEY --There were people in the slow group I was lapping--and in some cases well more than once -and they were on 600or bigger bikes.
there are 3 straights well long enough to get past a slower rider easily and safely
Don't lwet having a slow bike put ya off.I was on a slow as a wet week XJ900 and still had a ball

Once you understand that you have more than 1 gear, you might be surprised at how fast your bike could be.

It's a track day, not a race meeting.

They have not paid to race, they have paid to take their bike on track at a track day. You were a slow cunt once, and may still be.

ill still be holding other people up an feel obliged to move out of there way, if i was on a CBR1000 doing max speed down a straight i would be screaming green red an blue murder if there was someone on a 250 ruining my line into the corner, possibly sending me off the track to avoid hitting him, wouldn you?

if someone is on a cbr1000 and is screaming down the strait and still cant get past you on a 250 then there is something wrong with them. there are heaps of places to pass.

if your not confident on the track just go in the slower group and dont worrie about other people. just hold your lines and faster riders will move around you.
the accidents happen when slow riders try and move out the way of the faster people and get hit from behind.

im slow but i still go out. if someone cant get past me then its there prob.

its all about having fun dude.

**FROSTY:Me** · 20th July 2005, 18:09

Mikey--pull ya head in sunshine.
Trust ol frosty here --a two fiddy or for that matter a FXR150 will be fine on the track day.
I'm 100% certain that faster riders will find space to get past you --even inexperienced fast riders.
Just the same as the taupo track day except there are 3 straights to pass on not just one. I came up behind guys a shit load slower than me a heap of times and it only slowed me down for one corner maybee two.

**JohnBoy** · 20th July 2005, 18:45

Milky.. the best advice i was ever given on track days was to remove my mirrors. the idea being to concentrate on riding your self... let the others pass you. remember, its not a race and hopefully no one will try and stuff it underneith you into a corner or anything.

I think you're missing the point mikey.

It is not a race and if you were doing max speed on a ride day and someone on a 250 was "one your line" and you binned it trying to avoid him/her... it would be your fault not theirs.

If it was a race then you wouldn't be in the same class as someone on a 250.

This is a ride day which is something completely different from a race.

**Uncle B** · 20th July 2005, 20:26

I'm in for this one...save a spot for me.
Gonna use it to try and brush up on some skills.

**dss3** · 20th July 2005, 21:21

Yep im keen too, just putting in a post so i get some reminders as the day draws nearer.

Ciao

Anyone going full fucking throttle into the corner should have enough skill to go around you mate. Mobile chicanes are all part of the fun.

And you are quite a big cunt but certainly no brick wall.
