I'll be there. Where abouts at the westgate shopping centre do you want to meet? it's a pretty big carpark.
May I suggest the shell station just by the roundabout?

Mattt, was that you I saw on Old North road on the yellow gixxer?

The weather turned to crap just before the ride, I was running late and ninjaneil txted me saying it might be better to have the ride later in the week.

But since I had my gear on and was in the mood, I ended up going for a short ride up scenic drive etc and doing old north road a few times, before heading back the same way.

The road by those one way bridges on old north road is sooo slippery. Even the Zeal spun up the rear wheel as I was accelerating (not even from a standstill, I was already moving!).
