Bike only Open Day at Puke

Well if we get enough bikes turning up, maybe he'll tell the cars to piss off, if any turn up as far as they are concerned it is still only a bike open day.

I'm definitely in. I'll go in to work next friday to start my catch up on workload so IO can have the 16th off. Better order my crash bungs huh?

So that my wheels WILL be in motion!
I'm planning on being there on the 16th. Is it $80 for the bikes only day?
9:30 start? till 4:30? or my first Crash, which ever comes first!

Isn't there a rule at Pukie that states no engines can start prior to 10:30 or something? I may be wrong here... I am sure about the money being $ 80.00 though.

Yep doesn't start til 10:30am. You can get there early and set up, just the track doesn't open until 10:30.

Hopefully I'll be there. My engine is in a million bits and pieces and I'm waiting on some parts from Japan which will hopefully turn up soon so I can get it back together in time to overtake some 400's on the back straight

Gee, i'm gonna be knackered on Friday night. I've just signed myself up for the Life FM great race which is Friday arvo. My schedule now looks like
10am- turn up o Puke
10:30-3pm:- GIve the gixxer death round the track and not crash!
3pm-4: rocket back to the city
4pm: leave the Life FM studios to barrel off down to Mystery Creek (some odd places to visit thrown in) in an attempt to get there before a whole bunch of lemmings doing the same but stuck in cars! (for once, heavy traffic will rock my world!)
5:30ish - chill out and unwind in Hamilhole with a very well earned coffee as I peruse my new hard-earned 10 CD collection and 2 free tickets to Parachute next weekend!

6pm- try and see if I can find any more grotesquely one-sided sure-thing competitions to enter!

SWEEEEET!

Good detour, Drury, Old Gsr to Runciman Rd, Tuimata rd, Capehill Rd .

Take care folks

its bound to be hot, humid and rain a bit too. I've got heavy one piece leather suit with not enough vents and a back protector that will roast me even more but I Can't WAIT for tomorrow!!!

If anyone has a digi camera can you PLEASE bring it with you so we get lots of shots?

cheers

**Motoracer** · 15th January 2004, 16:27

Not looking forward to the rain bit at all with the slicks on but see you all there tomorrow

**Coldkiwi** · 15th January 2004, 16:39

don't worry. In this heat and humidity, the roads (and everything) are drying really really fast. it won't slow us down for long

**Hoon** · 15th January 2004, 17:34

I won't make it as my parts haven't arrived yet

**SpankMe** · 16th January 2004, 14:53

Some cut down images from the day. All the full size ones can be viewed in the gallery.

Thanx for the pics man. Was good to see everyone + new faces. Had 3 good runs then I was hit by food poisioning out of no where. Could hardly even walk so I had a lie down till 4 and then I drove off home. All in all a good day except for me being sick and possibly getting speeding ticket when I was on my way there in the morning with the van.

Good lucky for the weekend Racey
