Well now that the high has pushed the real rank weather off NZ we can look forward to reasonable day tomorrow and a BRILLIANT day on Monday. :niceone:

Anyone for a ride on Monday, I need to get a couple of rides longer than four hours under my belt before . . . . .

the Eighteenth.

PS I think that I will call Mondays ride the "See what you are missing out on" ride.:D

Yep last night (Fri), I slaved through the pouring rain to get my bike ready for todays Puke track day much to the astonishment of everyone around me who thought I was crazy going out in this weather.&nbsp; Even this morning it looked dodgy, I bought me a new race BT96 intermediate rear tyre for today but it stopped raining soon after I got to the track and by lunchtime the track had dried out and stayed dry all day much to the satisfaction of us 5 bikers who were hard enough to turn up :)

&nbsp;

Blue skies with a few grey clouds now.&nbsp; Weather says the worst of its blown over to the east coast so hopefully it'll stay dry for tomorrows race (fingers crossed!!).

Well it was a geart day in inner Auckland.:)

I hope it was a great day for all the stalwart racers who showed up at the track.:rockon:

Good luck for tommorow and here's to it being an even better day.:beer:

Lee, you'd&nbsp;better order up some decent weather for the 18th.&nbsp; Don't fancy another 1000 miler like the '96 event with gales and driving rain:confused:

Seriously out of practice this year like Mangell.&nbsp; Did a 500 k round Coromandel ride last weekend, only stopping for 5 mins to refuel and munch a banana and my wrists hurt after that one!&nbsp; Have just fitted a couple of 100 W halogen bulbs in anticipation of you sticking us down the loneliest, twisty road you can find in the middle of the night!:argh:

cheers
