Ok, we have the opportunity to race this Sunday with the Karts in their endurance day.
The morning is sprint racing like normal (practice + 2 sprint races)
The afternoon has endurance races, with the bikes having a 30 minute endurance race.
Who's keen?

Can't make this one, committed to a track day at Taupo.
My apologies as we do need the numbers out there.
Hamish, if you can't afford it, I'll pay you $45 bucks in return for a couple of hours hard labour landscaping at my place

I will show up. Sounds like fun if we get a warm up and 2 practice races and then and endurance. I will try muster up another 2 more people.
Haha cheers Adrian but that's ok I get paid on Friday so I will just manage. Thanks heaps though!! I try to never ask my parents if they could lend me money... just their bikes on occasion haha.

I'm revved up after the BOB. I'll just have to change my gearing somewhat & get over this stomach bug.

I am keen as, but BOB has cleaned me out. Also would need a lift to the track and back. Might not make it sorry.

Ummmm it's gonna be pissing down on Sunday. Ugh. Is anyone else still gonna turn up? Does someone have wets they wouldn't mind lending me? I have room for your bike Richard but I live in Upper Hutt so I would have to get up hella early and make a hell of a trip on gas money I don't have haha, sorry.

At this stage play it by ear if it is pissing down we should all show up and make a call from there.
knowing our luck as soon as we say fuck it the sun will come out and we will have to seek shade.
That sound like a Tui add

Well hope day went ok. I had my fate decided for me. Doing anything involving getting into hard to remove clothes & jumping around a considerable distance from a toilet was deemed a bad idea. On top of that I had all the energy reserves of an old Russian D-cell.

Must have done something you rode well today Fish concidering it was wet. Two race wins and a third. Not a bad days work. Pitty about the weather. Fine from Upper Hutt south. Wet at Kaitoki. Only one bike crash from 8 riders wet all day 2 sprints one 20min race thats good. Hammish almost had an off in front of me good to see you pull it back in.
Hopefully the weather will be better next time.

Cheers mate like always the wet is hard on the head to find that fine line between vertical and horizontal. Vertical is always better. You rode well to in that first race I had nothing on you and Hamish

Cheers for the fun day, was a bit stink that it was wet but can't expect them all to be dry. Yeah that was a bit freaky, thought I was going to have another high side onto my head. Didn't let it bother me though, it's all fun haha. Bugger about Nigel's crash but glad you were ok. Andrew, it's good to have you back and going much faster. I am keen to get some wets though and I heard talk of a bunch of us buying some in bulk together from some guy down south. I am keen. How do we get this idea rolling?

That was a good days riding, even if I had to end it was a crash a few laps from the finish.
Skunk and I are discussing a bike only day in November with our own 1 or 2 hour endurance race. Just an idea at this stage.
You guys keen?

Hell yeah I'm keen. Would be nice to be able to stand in the pit area and not hear "EEEEEE.... EEEEEEE.....EEEEEE". God my ears are still ringing haha. In all seriousness though, I loved the last 2 hour endurance but it fuuuuudged my tires which weren't even that bad to begin with. So if it was a voting matter then I would like to suggest just lots of 15 lap races or something. Otherwise I'm happy to do what suits everyone else! Track time!!!

Very keen, but earlier Nov means I'd be allowed to be away from the phone.
