    Bike Rider Magazine Summer Series Round 2 - PMCC @ Manfeild

    Frustration. It's a very annoying word. A bloody nuisance when it applies to an entire weekend.

    Metvuw said no rain so, thankfully, the wets kept collecting spiders webs in the shed.

    Steve picked me up, we picked my bike up and hit the road. The drive down was uneventful and we got there in time to leave the trailer at the track so we didn't have to fight for a space the next morning. A burger and chips eaten on the bonnet of the car and we were off to Palmy North for the night.

    We rocked up to Mumbles place, parked ourselves on the couch and pulled the top off some cold ones.

    Mumbles told me I could crash in the spare room but Stevie said if I did he'd jump in too. I really, really wasn't keen on waking up to find a half pissed Scotsman who'd been babbling about shagging earlier spooning me. So I crashed on the couch .....

    Wow, great write up mate! Racing can be such a bitch can't it?! I find once my head is in the wrong place then I may as well pack up and buggar off.

    Chin up though dude, it'll be better next time!

    I'd better have the throttle problem fixed before PMCC round 3 cos if it plays up at all there I'm pulling out of Paeroa. Fark having a sticky throttle on the streets.

    Sometimes it's just one thing after the other isn't it. Well done for staying on the bike after the throttle issue - nasty thing to happen! Pleasure to meet you Shane, hope you get the throttle sorted for Taupo. And Paeroa
    It's only Rock and Roll but I like it

    If I'd known you could toss me off I'd have given you abuse too.

    The second to last time I seized the RG on the track I was put on the trailer on top of my bike with the trailer attached to the quad. The guy went waaay to fast and as he rounded the corners I could hardly reach the ground. Then at one point he turned so quick I couldn't reach the ground in time and the bike fell over and wedged me between it and the trailer, the guy kept going for a few meters while I was hanging off trying the trailer and trying to keep my head off the ground, he couldn't hear me yelling and only stopped when someone pointed at me . Was pretty horrible at the time but at no point did I abuse the guy trying to help me.

    It's funny NOW though....

    Good read Shane , also good talking again. Thats a fine looking bike mate and i will accept your PM offer for sure and maybe give some good feedback to you.
    As for the couch thats a good call even if its a late night . Imagine wakeing up next to that -----> lol.
    Keep better company with less jinx attraction and you will get to a better level.
