This will be held on the "old Track" $10 for 3 laps and it sounds like there may be a few classics there to try as well I'm sure you've all fancied yourselves as "swingers" :whistle"
Can I sign up Voltaire?
Can I sign up Voltaire? I'll even shout him the ride and give him tuition which will involve saying "don't let go"
Hope to be there myself, will depend on work. Itchin to have a go on a big wheeler, only ever done moderns apart from a brief stint on an A65. Just need to scrape my pennies together for new leathers n helmet. Hope I can get the lovely Mrs YR on one as well. Wearing her Heron Suzuki retro leathers
Yes I will try and make it too.. 2 piece and back protector be ok? I don't have any zip together leathers or a 1 piece at the moment
Yeah that will be fine, the rider has to pay the beer fine if the passenger falls off so they tend not to go to hard unless you ask them to
Unless they mistake my screaming for enthuiasm
sounds like a hoot is back protector required and can i hire one there if needed
Just tie me on and gag me then go for it.
Unless they mistake my screaming for enthuiasm Flying the chair high on my Ural/VW my 4 year old daughter started screaming,so I quickly stopped and asked if she was ok,she just yelled ''Do it again,do it again!'' Always like to make a kid happy. She said the same thing as a 2 year old when I spun out and jack knifed the Austin 1800 with a motorcycle trailer on the back.There were cars on both sides of the road,and the drawbar was touching the back tyre...I just wanted to get out of there.Not often you can do a 180 in a Landcrab,but I've done it 3 times...and only the once in my own car.
Unless they mistake my screaming for enthuiasm I'll tell them to "look after you" I don't think a back protector is required as they don't go "race pace" but I will have one there anyway
last time I was in a sidecar I was letting my mate pilot we went off the road on the Rarimu Spiral end of National Park....I have no wish to ever go on one again....even a bucket one..... ( I do however still have the sidecar...a Watsonian GP...see boxer thread)
sounds like this could be unoffical BFTP get together
A trip to Taupo is far enough for me to be wearing mine anyway. Yeah wickle, let's do lunch..
Im in, BFTP meeting at Taupo, Dont know which bike yet, TZR or LC....................Havnt riden the TZR on the road for more than 30mins, only did that to give it a once over before taking the lights off and fitting slicks.
