Sidecar 'have-a-go-day' (19 October 2008)

[deanohit]

All I was thinking while making that was "fuck that tarmac looks close", but yea, definitely gotta do it again. Maybe tape it to the sidecar insted of my helmet.

[Kickaha]

Its never made me suicidal

Me neither

Although over the years there's been a few times I thought I was going to die :lol:

[sidecar bob]

Me neither

Would you bother doing it anymore if i promised you that you would never experience that feeling again?

[McDuck]

Would you bother doing it anymore if i promised you that you would never experience that feeling again?

Cool, Mr Enigma needs to get his ass down to Timaru for the car meeting in 3 weeks to swing for Scrivy, id happily sit in the stands & drink piss for the weekend.
Its so easy, like falling off a log, or maybe falling off a sidecar possibly.
Have a go day date not confirmed yet, but will be October most likley because it fits in with our season nicely.

[kiwifruit]

Looking forward to it

If you steering im not coming i dont have all day!

[scrivy]

Mr enigma will have to show you how its done then :jerry:

Oh here we go again........... another year of breaking passengers ribs at the have a go day!!

This will be fun again!!! My favourite day of the year!!
Especially as Mr enigma51 will be able to show Sidecar Bob how to hang off it with 2 fingers, taking his other hand off to wave to the masses, and swing from side to side under full throttle and texting at the same tim, all without breaking a sweat!!

I reckon fruitibix will be amped this year (kidney belt in tow)!! Especially since we are now going to be.................. and also......... and then the owner will modify........ and remove...... and then........
Should be an LCR beater then!!

[scrivy]

Lap 2, turn 3!! Enigma51's demise!!!

[Kickaha]

Lap 2, turn 3!! Enigma51's demise!!!

Does that mean we can pre order the beer?

[sidecar bob]

Sweeeeeeet im there! :niceone:

You will be changing your username to Enima 51 after 3 laps with Scrivy.
Rather than order the beer, im taking bets as of now that you find some lame reason for not being there on the day.

[McDuck]

I am sooo there.



But i will deffently not be calling my driver a softie. (unlless it is kick, because, well, he is)

[Kickaha]

OOOOOO trust me I will be there you have no idea how much I wanna swing on a sidecar


and trust me I am under no illusion as to how difficult it is I think i will have to do some "training"

[enigma51]

All the riders are soft, the real men hang off the side:rolleyes:

Im buying you a beer!

[scrivy]

You know it Kick!! :drinknsin

You know Kick well too huh! :yeah:


All the riders are soft, the real men hang off the side:rolleyes:
Sort of - the real men hang off the side of a yellow short rig!! :not:


Im buying you a beer!
Correction enima51, you'll be buying a slab after the have a go day!! :apint::yes:

[scrivy]

I think I'll only take hardened passengers this year. You get too tired taking every man and their dog out all day!
Slow thrill seekers can go with Divvo and Kick, as first timers get a thrill on it even if you go slow, whereas the dudes with the kahunas can passenger on the side with either me or Sidecar Bob. Its not fair sticking high speed lunatics that wanna go fast on slower rigs.
I think mine will be reserved for the nutters only! :crazy::wacko::eek5::blink::shit::weird::headbang:

[Kickaha]

Slow thrill seekers can go with Divvo and Kick,

So you'll go out on the side with Divvo then?

[scrivy]

So you'll go out on the side with Divvo then?

Mate, on one of those LRC, CRC, CCR, CLR thingies, even my mum could swing on one!! ...and she's been passed away for 6 years! :blink:

I tell ya what Kick......... I'll swing on Divvos rig, AFTER you've been for a swing on mine!!! :clap:

Sound fair????

BRING ON THE FREAK SHOW!!

[sidecar bob]

OOOOOO trust me I will be there you have no idea how much I wanna swing on a sidecar


and trust me I am under no illusion as to how difficult it is I think i will have to do some "training"

Seriously now Enigma, Unfortunately sit ups, press ups & all that stuff will prepare you for swinging no more than talking shit on the internet.
Its not a physical thing, its more a slowing down of the mind to enable you to move around safely under adverse conditions, (that is Scrivy hard on the hammer drifting on 2 wheels) Its about accurate movements & precise timing.
No have a go try out, maybe with the exception of Brett Sproull, has ever done a proper left to right swing even under trailing throttle, let alone race pace.

[Kickaha]

That's me fucked then:rolleyes:

[scrivy]

That's me fucked then:rolleyes:

Mate, the only movements you control are your stools!! :doctor:
As for your precise timing - you always finish ya wank before Joni gets out of the shower!! Pretty good timing if ya ask me!! :lol::bleh:

You two softies coming up again?? Shit, my daughters got a new cat now..... I'd better send it to a cattery incase you get frisky again.... Oh yeah, do you still need the extra large bottle of jack off lube beside your bed Kick??? (Oh, and can you please bring your own sleeping bag this time - I had to throw out the one you borrowed - it was so full of monkey spank and gerbal fur!!! Where did you get the gerbal from anyway???)

Mate, if Kiwifruit has one hand to spare, then he'll probably be swinging on your slower rig...... :shifty::bleh:

[kiwifruit]

I've a feeling i'm going to be a bit under the weather that day and unable to swing, as much as i'd really want to....

Fuck me its easy to get the red mist coming down!

[enigma51]

I reckon me and mr fruit have to do a little competion lets see who can do the fastest laptime and DNF dont count! no bribing the driver mr tooty fruity!

[enigma51]

:woohoo:

(Fark, I might just sit in the stands and watch Sidecar Bob wreck havoc on you poor bistards!!) :yes:

Dont worry i promise i will go easy on you!:dodge:

[McDuck]

Lol could i marshal please?

[enigma51]

Apparently mr tootie fruity has borowed dovers excuse book! and will not be getting on the sidecar.

[jrandom]

Sidecars, eh?

<img src="http://i32.tinypic.com/2wpk03t.jpg"/>

My grandfather drove one of those back in the day. All the acceleration and handling of a car combined with all the air-conditioned comfort and safety of a motorcycle. Sounds like a great way to get around if you're a masochist who's not running late.

Then again, I hear their lap times are just about getting to the 125GP level these days. I guess being overtaken by the safety car at race meetings got annoying after a while.

:yawn:

Still, on the whole, it's pretty good going for a bunch of tired old codgers who probably consider two mugs of lukewarm Horlicks a heavy post-race drinking session. Good on them for getting out there and giving it a go, I say. Don't let age win the battle, guys!

:niceone:

I'd best come out on the day and show you lot how it's done. I'm a bit on the heavy side, though, so that underpowered rig of scrivy's might struggle to get on the boil. Does anyone know if any fast sidecars are planning on turning up?

[kiwifruit]

Any chance I could have a go as the rider? Might help me make the decision to start racing chairs? Been a swinger, bugger that again! But it is a shit load of fun, swinging, and the swinger does a lot more than the average person realises eh Sidecar BOB!

Um, I could go and buy the world chumps one....... but it is only fast in a straight line........ :shutup:
As for on the boil, well, our engine boiled on every race. So no probs for you there your randomness!! :sunny:

If you've been buggered while swinging then you've frequented the wrong swingers clubs Shaun!! :innocent:
Sidecar Bob doing more than the average person???? He's mister 'Unnecessary exertion'!!:yawn:

[McDuck]

what are the chances of a few slower laps on a rig so i can have a go at properly swinging?

Yeah mate, it's not classed as a race day. You get to choose who's sidecar you'd like to go and swing on. Tell them to go as fast or as slow as YOU want. They do the rest!!

Fruitibix, Enima51 and his Randomness all want to go hard and break some bones I believe. So we will endeavour to have the TV cameras there to catch the events unfolding!!
There could be a poll to come on this I feel.......... :cool:

[Devil]

oooo! I wanna go! :D

You will need training to do it 100% right so i say lets go fast :laugh:

Anything to see Logan get flung off the chair will be entertainment in itself :buggerd:

I rekon it can be done, probably wouldnt want to make a habit of it tho, It has brake & gears on the "wrong" sides & people that arent used to it tend to jump on the gearlever to stop, Gearbox rebuilds are faarkin expensive & that sort of behaviour has cost us at least one.

Could i have a ride to? ;) :baby:

[sidecar bob]

Could i have a ride to? ;) :baby:

Hmmm, This would be a Scrivy decision, If it encourages someone to buy a sidecar, then well & good.
Prior have a go days have conservatively cost us in excess of $2500 in repairs & upkeep.

[Deano]

October 13th is also the Vic Club round at Taupo so if you're traveling to that you could make a weekend of it

Yeah, I've heard from Kiwifruit about his experience....sounds like fun.

I'm keen to swing.

Yeah, they are expensive - but bloody fun!!!
I don't own the rig, and if it was bent, the rider has to pay!! The owners rules - not mine!!
Only prob I can see is that it is getting a major overhaul this year - lots of major changes that will make it very difficult for anyone else to ride. Cant give away details, other than it will take me awhile myself to come to grips with it. :whistle:

So your going to practice on kiwifruit before risking the proper swinger? Top man ;)

[Mental Trousers]

I guess he's getting old and slow. Maybe it's time he retired and made way for someone who gets a hardon from kicking arse??

[scrivy]

I guess he's getting old and slow. Maybe it's time he retired and made way for someone who gets a hardon from kicking arse??

Fookin ouch man!! Too old??? We still set the lap record at Timaru in the presence of far superior machinery!!
I can't wait to see how many of the current LCRs will be circulating at the front of the pack when they're an old post classic sidecar like mine in 15 years!! :cool:

[scrivy]

Maybe it's time he retired and made way for someone who gets a hardon from kicking arse??

I doubt any of the newbies could or for that matter would!! :lol:

So 1 right hander 1 left hander and a 10 sec straight and you'll have it sussed then?? Mint. Roll on the cartwheeling kiwifruit/jrandom/enima51 day.

Just had a thought, I will likley be taking my pre '76 BMW outfit, Its slightly less valuable than the Suzuki & has the gears & bits where everyone likes them so no worries taking that one out.

Shouldn't have mentioned that. Shaun will want a go. I want a go. I'm sure jrandom and enima51 will want a go just to see if they can dislodge their swinger ....

Unfortunately I will have to decline going out with you at Taupo have a goat day, shoulder surgery a month before means I can use one arm, although cause you're so fucking slow I could probably do it one handed anyway :finger:

Well Kick, Bob uses only one hand anyway!! So either I am slow, or he's shite loads better than you??? :shifty:
Saying that, he does have strong hands..................how exactly he got them, I don't know.........

Hold on Kick and Kiwi, what if I take you out on the even older post classic BMW sidecar? Would that be more akin to your fitness levels?? :yawn:

Kiwifruit weighs about 200 kilos less now, so he is more fragile than last year :eek:

[jrandom]

I'm fairly sure that most c00nts in this thread could swing reasonably well after a few practice laps if scrivy rode the sidecar fast-smooth-lap styles.

However. I don't believe that scrivy will do that.

I believe that scrivy will be putting in seriously crap laps, easily beatable by, say, Joni riding sidecar bob's old BMW rig with Enigma's missus swinging, in his efforts to create sufficient sudden G-force changes to throw people off and break bones.

Just an impression I've gotten.

Dude... you been taking ESP 101 classes?? :whistle:

Nah, seriously, I aint in this to break peoples bones, or make them fall off. I want to let people feel the full race pace of these beasts, and experience a hell of a thrill. I will only go as fast or as slow as the passenger wants (or is capable of.....) ;)
But......... following Joni and Enemas missus, now I could do that all day long....!!!! :2thumbsup

You clearly have no idea of the sort of penalties the sidecar racing association impose for throwing a member of the public off at a have a go day, suffice to say it involves large quantities of ale, Very large quantities.
If he throws me off the situation is vastly different.
Actually, on that note, who can i pay to fall off & divide the spoils with?
Oh. . . & im fairly sure that most coonts on this thread would need a few seasons at it to swing reasonably well.

I'm really not shitting you, I have shoulder surgery in just over 2 weeks and won't be able to do it, I'm looking anywhere between 4-12 weeks recovery time depending on how badly they carve me up


I'm fairly sure that most c00nts in this thread could swing reasonably well after a few practice laps if scrivy rode the sidecar fast-smooth-lap styles.

Even fast and smooth without a fair bit of practice most people would be fucked in a couple of laps

I'd pay Scrivys ale fine to see him toss Jrandom on his arse :bleh:

I'm really not shitting you either Kick - I'm pregnant, and due in 3 weeks!!!! NOT!! I think you're just soft!! :baby:


Even fast and smooth without a fair bit of practice most people would be fucked in a couple of laps
Well, that's me screwed then. I can't ride smooth to help meself!!


I'd pay Scrivys ale fine to see him toss Jrandom on his arse :bleh:
Tossing?? Arse??? You two guys on the wrong website by chance??

[Katman]

Did three laps on Aarons a few years ago. For the whole of the third lap I didn't think I'd be able to hold on any longer. As we slowed for the pit entrance he turned around and gave me a thumbs up. Relieved to be almost finished, I nodded and he promptly fucked off around for a fourth lap!

P.S. You still wanna bed for you 3 Southerners??

Note: I did say 1 bed for the 3 of you!!! Bloody Southerners!! (Bloody Sidecar tot'n, banjo playing, homos):laugh:

[Kickaha]

Until we get to hear your lame assed excuse for not going out on the faster chairs.....:shifty:

I can't even go out on the slower chairs


P.S. You still wanna bed for you 3 Southerners??

Definite maybe, Dave isn't coming as he's doing South Island Cup, dunno if I am yet as Jo might swing on the chair with Dave for it in which case I will stay for that

[scrivy]

I can't even go out on the slower chairs
You finally got it!!! :laugh:

I don't want any trouble

[007XX]

Am gonna have to give it a miss for this time...I was so very much looking forward to trying out the sidecar action.

Maybe I'll be allowed next year? Pleeeeeaaaaase?

[sidecar bob]

I don't want any trouble

Sorry, You have already lost that privelidge.

[kiwifruit]

Its gonna be a mint day alright :sunny:

I think i'll approach it as i did last year.... have a few goes on the not so crazy rigs then have a go with scrivy (HIGH FIVE!) :love: I won't be the fool that rocks up in pristine leathers telling him "go fast", however.

[Kickaha]

I won't be the fool that rocks up in pristine leathers telling him "go fast", however.

Thats ok we've already told him that for you

[scrivy]

AGGGGGHHHHHHH...... my chairs still in bits and won't be ready for the Act-a-goat-day. (AKA Have-a-go-day).

The owner hasn't finished putting the Ducati GP800 engine into it.......

:crybaby::crybaby::crybaby::crybaby::crybaby:

For all you guys that wanted your 'fix', you can still go on all the other rigs there. Just tell them that they're 'soft', and they'll treat you with the same respect I would..........:cool:

Oh, Sidecar Bob will have his mint BMW classic there too. It'll be the one drifting around Taupo with a lunatic at the controls..........:headbang: Rock up and ask him to be 'Gentle' with ya......


Scrivy,
Guttered........:thud:

Scrivy,

Guttered dosent cover it, I NEEEEED my fix on the big bastard badly.
The BMW will be doing a few quiet laps with me in the drivers seat to run it in (about half an hour) Then it will be over to scrivy to see how hard he can make it go. Even tho its my outfit, i actually bought it to swing on, You know the saying "you dont keep a dog & bark yourself"

[scrivy]

:shit:

But, scrivy, I wanted you to take my swinging cherry. It was going to be something special between us.

I've got ya covered Random. I'll either take you out on someone elses rig, or I'll take you out on the BMW...........
Either way, you'll be deflowered, popped ya cherry, or whatever else you want to call it. Just don't go getting obsessed. I ain't interested in any civil union!!:laugh:

[jrandom]

I've got ya covered Random. I'll either take you out on someone elses rig, or I'll take you out on the BMW...

Sweet.

That said, I might not make it myself. No licence, no bike - it depends on getting a convenient ride down.

Hopefully I won't miss out.

[kiwifruit]

Stink bout the freakshow :(

[scrivy]

Stink bout the freakshow :(

Well yeah. But now Sidecar Bob has his BMW there, it'll be the freak Ho!!

[sidecar bob]

Stink bout the freakshow :(

Not sure you need to grieve for the freakshow yet, id say the BMW has a greater power/traction ratio than the Suzuki. Id say the freak hoe will be there in some form.

[scrivy]

I cant wait to see some high speed front exits.......

[sidecar bob]

I cant wait to see some high speed front exits.......

I cant either, BY YOU!!! for a talented sidecar driver, you really are the most akward passenger ive ever seen.

[sidecar bob]

For those that are wondering WTF front exit / rear exit is. Classic sidecars are required to be "front exit" in that the passenger must be able to swing left in front of the side wheel, they may optionally be rear exited, but must retain the ability to be front exited. Modern sidecars are all rear exit, (behind the sidewheel) Rear exit is a fast & tidy way to go across the machine, But a fronty is a bit like rock climbing to get from behind the rider to the front of the tray, especially through the Manfield esses.
I have neatly converted the BMW to dual exit, so i can keep up with the driver. Have-a-goers will be encouraged to give both styles a try.

[kiwifruit]

Got a pic of the said machine Bob?

[sidecar bob]

If i was really clever i may be able to post some up before the day is out.

Oh, this sounds like fun! Might have to go down to see what this is about...:rockon: May even have to have a go! Are there age limits on kids having a turn?

[sidecar bob]

Oh, this sounds like fun! Might have to go down to see what this is about...:rockon: May even have to have a go! Are there age limits on kids having a turn?

No age limit. I have a photo on my office wall of my son at age 3 on the side with scrivy in behind him.
The biggest problem i had with him that day was him jumping up & down in the trailer on the verge of a breakdown because it wasnt his go yet.

[MadDuck]

No age limit.

Cool. I will be heading back from Manfeild and if old chicks are allowed then maybe ...just maybe....

[nodrog]

Is it like this?

ive seen it bro, it looks like and angry little fucker.

[scrivy]

No age limit. I have a photo on my office wall of my son at age 3 on the side with scrivy in behind him.
Careful how you word that Bob!! There are bad deviates in here!!
My daughter was 2 when she went on it!! Infact, I think we lapped quicker than Kick did......
The biggest problem i had with him that day was him jumping up & down in the trailer on the verge of a breakdown because it wasnt his go yet.
Follows in his dads footsteps!!!

Old chicks have more experience....... so I've heard.....


ive seen it bro, it looks like an angry little fucker.
Ain't called the widow maker for nothing........ :laugh:

Bob reckons he's gunna go to sleep on it compared to the Busa! I can't see it personally!!
Mind you, he has been known to play tic-tac-toe while on the Busa...........:shit:

[scrivy]

Found these great pics of Bobs sidecar and Kick doing...... well, Kick being Kick really.........:pinch:

[ital916]

Dammit I just found this thread :crybaby:, is it too late to sign up for the have a go day? I have always wanted to give it a go. What gear do we need, man if its not to late where am I gonna get a leather suit from.

Edit: Damn I have work at the bike store on the 19th...mega damn, man that just killed my week. Is there a sidecar day in auckland....i reckon being a swinger on a sidecar would be sick as.

[Kickaha]

[MadDuck]

Old chicks have more experience....... so I've heard.....

Dont believe every thing you hear.....or read....or see ....

[kinger]

Only just found the thread, but as one or two know, I'm aware of the day and will be there.
Scrivy, this isn't just a get out from my original abusive post is it...:laugh:
Still, see you there chaps, looking forward to crapping myself.

I know I was told that street gear is okay, but do I get a bit more of an adrenalin type run if I'm in leathers?

[Kickaha]

I know I was told that street gear is okay, but do I get a bit more of an adrenalin type run if I'm in leathers?

Just tell Scrivy that you've heard he rides like a girl (he does) and you'll get a good ride

[kinger]

I've already abused not only Scrivy, but, by association with my mate Bruce Moore, all three wheeled race types....:Oops:

[sidecar bob]

Just tell Scrivy that you've heard he rides like a girl (he does) and you'll get a good ride

Id be quite happy for someone to tell me i ride a sidecar like a girl, So long as that girl was Tracey Anderson!

[nodrog]

how hard can it be? the fucken things have training wheels, all you have to do is sit there and enjoy the scenery

i think Glen needs a lesson :shit:

[kiwifruit]

Thats asking for twubble G-Ride! I'll be sure to point you out to Scrivy and Sideshow bob :yes:

[CookMySock]

My kids (14 and 15) are so looking forward to this. They race B1 rep pocketbikes and the older one has his own roadbike, so they are looking fully grim and ready to deal to these silly three-wheeled things.. Like how scary can they be? I mean really? :cool:

edit: anyone got a camera on their sidecar?

hahaha should be a great day!

Heaps of sidecars to choose from, classics, short and long, Its my best day out this year,
if you want a buzz this is definitely the way to go ,safe well i only saw two offs and one sliding along the track hanging on, looked like he was doing a hero act :Oops: LOL not really the acceleration is mind blowing and he slipped
A good day Thanks all you guys and gals :Punk:

[kinger]

Couldn't agree more bud, what a hoot eh? Even my mate Dave, who had a wee slide along the ground at the hairpin, seemed quite happy with his day.

I can't believe how friggin exhaustin' them three lap runs are.:shit:
I saw Scrivy and apologised for my slightly derogatory comments earlier, and now see all three wheeled racers in a new light.
I had four runs on all sorts of chairs, and must admit, am tempted with becoming a swinger!!!

[R6_kid]

that was f00ken mean... best tenner i've spent a looooooooong time.

[naughty]

That was mean, on the calendar for next year already, even tempted to sell the bike and buy a sidecar. :yes: The best fun had in a long time! Got to swing on a few different bikes, started on the girly bike, and had a great few laps on Bretts machine, holy shit! :gob: There was no doubt in my mind he was there with us today. :first: Great machine mate, rock on. I think all involved had a fab day. Cheers to the sidecar association for putting it on for us...yeeeeehaaaaaaaaaa! :niceone:

[sidecar bob]

What an awesome day!! Thanks everyone for showing up & having a go, The Beemer went hard all day, with the exception of a set of bolts working loose, which was soon sorted.
The big news is that Enigma51 went down the road on his arse today!!! im sure he will be along with all the reasons (excuses) why shortly. p.s, I didnt do it, or Scrivy either.

[CookMySock]

That was a quality family outing. Many thanks to the good folks who put that together - mum and the kids had a fully mean time.

Will be along to the next one with bells on. Thanks again. Steve.

[saul]

A real adventure into a different culture for sure.:shifty:

My lad (18 years) loved it and informed me that I didn't get close enough to the ground, then waxed on about his lean angles:laugh: He was great.:love:

Put us all on an even platform as noobs:laugh:

Thanks very much it was great and some really funny moments which I will tuck away and treasure.

[CookMySock]

Yeah it was cool seeing some grandads there, and some little kids. Not so many younger teens which surprised me.

Steve

[Genestho]

Hey thanks for the hospitality at the AGM last night guys, damnit, reading these posts, I regret not going out to the track this morning, and I kind of knew I would as I drove back.

Sounds like it was a good day, I'll be there next year, erm...photos please?!!!:Punk:

[Jiminy]

Had an awesome day today with all the sidecars guys. That was a good crew out there, thanks everyone! It was awesome being so close to the ground on the front exit chairs :)

After my last go (with John), I was wondering if the 3rd wheel was there for aesthetic reasons only because it wasn't used much :lol:

[Kickaha]

That would be an affirmative chap, Turns out that joni is way harder than him.
Oh. . .For those that dont know, Joni took Kickahas place on divvos chair on the weekend for a training day, i got a few fairly nervous texts, but she did great!!!

[stify]

Even though I felt worse than a crack ho before benefit day I'm so farkin glad I made the effort to go, what an orsum orsum day out, thanks to you all!!

highlight of me day was having a turn on the bmw chair....3 up, cheers to the pilot, you made that young ladies day.

[nodrog]

mistake number 1 was picking a girls sidecar first thinking it would be a good starter, well i broke it after half a lap and had to push the farkin thing about 3k's back to the pits and i was knackered. they got it sorted and back out we went, FUCK ME that chick is bloody mad, i was shattered at the end of 3 laps. after the second lap the arm pump was that bad my hands were numb and i was hoping they were still holding on.

mistake number 2 was jumping on with sidecar bob when i still hadnt recovered from my first outing, flying into the first lefthander i just remembered kiwifriut's words of advice "win or bin", so i just gave it my all. well holyshit:shit:, my shoulder rubbed the ground and i thought "fuck thems my good leathers" a second later i thought "fuck it, at least it will look cool" so i ended up dragging my shoulder right through at least 2 of the turns, its a fuckin wicked buzz and i was laughing like a mad man while it was happening.

by the end of lap 1 i knew i was fucked and wouldnt be able to hang on for much longer as i was having trouble pulling myself back off the ground, then as we exited the turn onto the back straight, i pulled myself up too soon and me and bob did the good thing and decided to jump the curb and mow abit of the lawn. thats when i pulled the pin as i knew i was too fucked too do a proper job anymore, and i didnt want to end up like the poor bastard who decided to get off half way along pit straight.:doctor:

sorry to cut the run short steve, i was just too knacked, but i had a fuckin ball mate its the best fun i have had on the track i reckon.

anyone who hasnt done this and thinks it looks easy needs their head read, fuck knows how they jump around on the back for 3 laps, let alone a whole fuckin race.

mad bastards :yes::rockon:

[Kornholio]

Id be quite happy for someone to tell me i ride a sidecar like a girl, So long as that girl was Tracey Anderson!

Oh god, she was lovely wasn't she... and she went very quick too... Is she married :p

Had a ripper day, couldn't get enough... I also joined the shoulder down club and the lawn mowing club on the inside of some corners(cheers Bob ) :D

[sidecar bob]

Yes, Yes & Yes. :spanking:

[jrandom]

And I've yet to see anything by Jrandom? did he pussy out and not turn up?

Yup. Gutted.

Woulda been there if my licence wasn't in a cupboard at LTNZ and my motorcycle in a police impound yard.

But I wasn't about to take a bus from Auckland to Taupo just to avoid getting called a pussy, I'm afraid.

Letter of apology

It is with my sincerest wishes that I publicly state my apologies to Sidecar Bobs Post Classic BMW sidecar.

Big tripod Fwrrrrrrr, I must hereby apologise for constantly taking the piss out of you, both to your face and in the public domain. After yesterday, I now have the utmost respect for you. You are truly worthy of the Scrivy/Sidecar Bob freakshow status! You were so gentle on me for my first ride, that it was like you wanted me to take the piss out of you. Then, once the gloves were off, you just upped the ante, and gave me the learn. I am humbled big Fwrrrrrrrrr. You gracefully showed me that you don't need big horsepower to have fun. I am forever in your debt.

Regards,
Scrivy
(Big Fwrrrrrr..... convert)

Great day, thanks! I think i'm a little traumatised from last year - I found it more frightening this time round.
Went out on the pink 600 first up, whey hey hey!, she's pretty quick.... lost my grip coming into the first turn on the third lap, that slowed her down some, thankfully. Then out on the long white / orange rig which was pretty straight forward. The most "enjoyable" ride was on the classic triumph, strange feeling swing off the front with nothing infront to rest against on the brakes. I was rooted by that stage :)
'ad a go on the long Lawernce bro rig which was gentle for the first lap, comfortable for the second and a bit much on the third.... I wondered why he opened it up for the third lap, apparently Mr Scrivener was giving him hurry up waves from pit wall, thanks Andrew :love:
At least i stayed aboard, aye O' / Logan! :gob:
Thanks again all involved. After a lay down in the afternoon i made a full recovery and continued my normal activities.
:sunny:

[scrivy]

I am still waiting for Enigma51's reply.................... :shit:

And before he tells you some imaginative story of how he was dragged for a whole lap, or how he was delt to by some deranged lunatic, or even by a 240Hp engine in a wild bucking bronco ride................ :eek:
.
.
.
.
I must state he was riding on a 'GIRLS' :love: sidecar, with about 110 Hp, and she was taking it ever so gently, being the professional rider she is.

I wonder if he said anything to Tracey prior to going out with her along the same lines as he said to Sidecar Bob 'I hear you are a soft cock.......'
(Ya see, Tracey would've taken exception to that......):doh:

having a protein shake and going for a 50km run aint normal bro!

[kiwifruit]

Apparently it was Tracey's father (?) that flicked Logan off the pink rig :jerry:

[McDuck]

I am a little pissed i missed it, assignments called. Next time.

[wybmadiity]

Im going to make a special effort to hook you up with a girl rider so you can go "GIRLY PACE" It will be the same pace we used to come second in the classic series. OK???:lol:
The girls took my virginity! The rocked and rolled! (had planned to have another ride with them ... )


Is she married :p
That doesn't usually stop you :p


highlight of me day was having a turn on the bmw chair....3 up, cheers to the pilot, you made that young ladies day.
Was great to see you Stify, and meet the family :D

I had the best day ever! went out on the PB racing bike first off and after that I was almost just going to ride with them again, however with the people queing I thought I would give someone else a go. Wanderered off and bought more tickets before going on the black one with "Don't lick this bar" written on one of the grab rails (#47 or 57?) believe it was the swinger driving so had a nice sedate ride :)
Highlight of the day.. Having a go with John, on the then imaculate looking Guzzi which Brett used to swing on. Apon climbing aboard I first found the hand holds, then looked up and thought... Hmmm not much to hold me in here, best I hang on tight. With a push from the nice by-standers (no face plant like the other poor guy I saw do it) we were off, into the first corner I figured these guys don't need to warm up the tires, cause we were off and racing!A bit of air here and there, and on what I thought was the last lap we continued on past the pits for another! YEAH! Pace was getting pretty quick, all was going well.. Small incident on the last lefthander, hit oil on track, bit of sideways and superman action, creating a not so immaculate looking Guzzi, yet I still wanted more! John was straight back out there with another punter. I think I told him a dozen times that day.. If he needed a swinger he could call anytime :D Guess I finally understand what Brett used to rave on about!
Sorry I didn't get a go with you SidecarBob, had a broken visor on helmet and Sue kindly loaned me her helmet for the ride home so didn't want to scratch it up or anything :no:
Cheers to all teams and the sidecar association, for a great event! Once a year just isn't enough!

The look on her face said it all!!! Nervousness, fear, panic, excitment, fear as we got faster, shock, panic, excitment, excitment...... relief.............

Hopefully she will be buzzing for a long time!!! Fantastic to see young kids experiencing these types of thrill rides (esp. in this over PC world)
My kids look forward to this day each year!!

The highlight of my day was a 3 lap unofficial race with Darren Pate on the orange GSXR1100 outfit, (Which the BMW won incedentally)
After learning the BMW for about 2 hours i thought i wasnt going too bad until scrivy got on it & made it do everything except for talk!!
The huge wheel up slides exiting the left handers & backing it in at the hairpin were awesome.Im SOOOO looking forward to a season on the side of this thing with him at the controls, he really does have freak status.
Bring On The Freak Hoe!!!

i think you bastards must have broken enigma51

Only his spirit.:2thumbsup

[Kornholio]

Only his spirit.:2thumbsup

He also cried a little when the pink bike spat him off :D

[sidecar bob]

Apparently it was Tracey's father (?) that flicked Logan off the pink rig :jerry:

Yep, Roger Stent, a hard charger from way back, he had a massive crash at Wanganui a few years back & is a bit of a mess so now he just runs the bikes for Tracey & Brian his son.

[scrivy]

He also cried a little when the pink bike spat him off :D

You wouldn't see me playing with a 'GIRLS TOY' EVER!!
It's just not natural!!! Besides - you don't know where its been.........

C'mon Enima, where are you?? It might not have been your fault at all.
