I've deliberate on posting this but....

After all that, they then cornered like a stuck pig along the scargill road so ended up overtaking them anyway.

I realise that everyone had the right to participate in the ride, but that behaviour doesn't make sense to me. If you get your jollies from passing people in a straight line then try drag racing. Cornering is where motorcycling is at, and I suggest not bothering trying to get to the front of the group if you're no good at it. I also suggest not trying to put other peoples lives at risk or this will result

Agreed

Know exactly who your talking about...he passed me on the left earlier-like Transalper, I dont like that!

hope he reads this, but don't think he posts here

I'd prefer a few bent bits so as to wear the tyre evenly

Yes Mr Net is right, anybody can go fast on the straights, even me, but it takes a few corners to loose the "Rossis".

Next week SC we will have a few corners for you!!!!

Where abouts in Goona should I meet up with guys on the ride?

Gloplug, any chance you put up the route in google maps so I can figure out the best place to meet up?
