      Was an awesome day with lots of money raised - yay to WIMA - we rock!!
      His online name is Bodir, we think it means cabbage in German...
      But yeah, fanatstic turn out...about 540 bikes/$18,000 odd raised this year.
      All the lights fazed green the whole way, awesome job by the Police.
      Traffic duties went well, car people weren't bothered at all at my point.
      Had to direct a few of them as well.
      And whats with that REPSOL HONDA fulla, I motioned for him to turn right but did he take any notice? nooooooo

      Wasn't it a fantastic day? I am so knackered My personal thanks has to go to the Police for today. Not only did they stop traffic and facilitate the ride, most of them were busy when I was attempting to catch the ride Fantastic effort WIMA! You all should be very proud of yourselves, and no doubt you will sleep well tonight.

      Bring it on for next year!

      Sorry if I caused any noise pollution , I don't like beeping, I prefer revving it 
      That was my first year with Pink Ribbon, I was confused usually bikers rev it, don’t they?!
      It was all Maha’s fault.

      A couple of us at the back had good old time on the rev limiter a few times...
      Some snooty blonde in a car waiting to turn right around the Pt Chev area copped a ear full of HNP just cos I could (she had her window open)

      HNP= Honda Noise Polution.

      I love to do that to disrespectful drivers, I love the look on thier face which tells they just did a little tiny bit of pee in their pants.
