After my last round way back in April '07, getting taken out in practice, I was a little more nervous this time.
I went out first in practice hoping I wouldn't get tangled up in anymore incidents. All was going well for the first few laps then I was shunted from behind on turn 4. Thought it was all over again but I stayed upright and the guy passed me propper a few corners after. I qualified 8th so I was happy to be on the second row.
Posties Race 1. Got a fairly good start and was about 6th out of turn 1. Kept my head down, bum up and tried my best to keep up with the bikes in front but they were way faster than me. Benk got passed me so I tried to tag along with him but he was getting away at a great rate. I could hear someone right up my jacksie so tried to hold them off but Abby got by me on turn 8. Last bike to pass me was Kevin Kingham on the big GS thou, and I finished 10th.
Race 2. Bike cut out on the start grid and I didnt race.
Despite the shunt and the DNS I had an awesome day.
Thanks to PMCC and BRM and all the marshals for a wicked event. Thanks also to Doc for being my pit bitch.
Hope to make the next Taupo round with a properly sorted bike.

Keep an eye on those braking markers. Pity about the DNS. Still, guess you could get a beer into ya then !



, I too kinda have a curvy figure which makes it worse beacuse im a guy. Well the waist kinda goes in and the bum pushes out. When I was in college the girls in my year would slap me on the arse and squeeze because apparently it is firm, tight...
I wear jeans
