Hi Flew from Dunedin to Melbourne , Left my spousey with her good friend and caught the plane to Kuala Lymper. Had 8 days there staying with an old mate. Had 2 days up at Penang Island, highlight was hiring a honda 150 for about $8 for half day and touring the Island, I won manya drag race at the lights with the locals.Got totally miss mothered in Gorge Town. Night life in K.L. is great, Spent 3 days at MotoGp. Aprilla the best trade show, each bike had a dolly bird, racing was great, all the local ladies are passionate '' Valentino " fans. About half the crowd was female where as Aust had about 20% females. Big night after GP got to bed at 3am slept in , late for flight,sitting next to Vesa Kallio on plane. His brother is Casey Stoners team mate, made it back to Melb, into rental car and of to pick up spousey at Yarawonga. Next day headed west to Swan Hill, Hotham checked out Harley shop, down to Portland and off to Melb via great ocean road, Checked out bike shops at Gelong, Off to Philip Is, got a caravan about 30mins from track, Great trade displays, To all you guys TV dont do the bikes justice . Met Linda Blair on race day, wearing all the Ducati kit, Great racing, would have preffered a honda win. We bought 2 new honda riding jackets. Malaysian ticket costs are cheap. 50rm about $20 NZ for 3 day pass to sit in best stands where as Philip Is is $125 Aust to sit on grass. Will go back to K.L. next year and might go to Super Bikes in April as well. Any one interested into going to K.L. next year and need some advice send me an email. Cheers Toddy
