    Aye Carumba - Bike Rider Magazine Summer Series - PMCC Round 3

    Racing can be a total bitch sometimes.

    Saturday was the practice day so the wife and I headed down to Taupo so I could make certain that the bike was fine and that I was in the right frame of mind.

    Pretty much as soon as I got there I caught up with Lewis who was sorting out a pit shed. I was keen go to halves so I parked up beside his vehicle. Sign in and scrutineering were a breeze so I got the bike on the tyre warmers and went for a wander.

    Aye bad luck with the battery as I have been there myself. Well at least you stayed upright to ride another day. Great write up also. Agree Nigel needs to practice his briefing a little.

    Brilliant review Shane. So relate to your description of finding the right gear for the right corner, so true! Electrics and Triumphs just don't mix sometimes do they, sorry they put you out for the day. Have a minter on Sunday!!!
