    Danae: Next ride, just say fuckit and come along anyway. There will always be someone who is happy to hang back, if needed.

    I had a blast haring away after Jafa but we still never ended up with much more than a minute or 2 between the first and last people in the group.

    Thanks for the ride guys, had a ball. Good to meet you all, too.

    It was all done well in the safe zone, I don't think anyone scared themselves or ran wide into oncoming lanes or overtook on blind corners...
    Pretty much same as the last one you were on Rob

    PS. Remember 12,000 is only about 70kmh in 4th for me

    Thats odd, because 12,000 is more than 70km/h in 2nd for me.

    First goes up to 60, then second can reach 80/90, third hits 120, so either your bike has no power or your thinking the wrong gear

    Well, it was fun anyway.. I should probably get to one of those track day things soon...

    Yes Wade, my bike has no power and yours is totally the better of the two.

    Your bike was a) running and b) the right way up all day. I wouldn't be too concerned

    Arkro Powder Coating, they're the guys who did Renegade Master's entire bike pretty much. They're the only place that I found that will handle it from start to finish for a reasonable price. $50 per rim and you just drop it off. The other quotes I got either required me to get it stripped/sandblasted somewhere else or were much more expensive ($80+).
