    What time do Buckaneers get out of bed?

    No idea what Bucket racers call themselves collectively

    Anyway, I've been in contact with a nice fella by the name of John who has said I can thrash (er pootle) the clubs FXR tomorrow to give it a go. He is busy winging his way back from some exotic over seas trip and didn't give me a specific time to come along.

    So, more or less what time do you guys start practice on a Saturday?

    Looking forward to meeting up tomorrow.

    We'll be there around 9am, no engines before 9.30. Not sure what time the club hack is turning up??? So anytime after 9 is good.

    You know where the track is? John won't be there Saturday, but we'll look after you.

    Wonder how long briefing will take on Sunday as we'll all be full of questions as to how the trip went.

    If you find someone looking lost in the pits and looking like a muppet in a day glo vest come and say hello and get signed on. Should be there about 9ish.

    I've got the carb that failed miserably at Taupo this year on Michelles bike on mine at the moment so I can test it so no real hurry. Curious to see if it still sucks and if so if changing from the Emgo pod filter on it to the DNA pod filter you have makes any sort of difference.

    Just because you refuse to get out of bed if there is a 3% chance of rain in the next three weeks. Maybe we should get some Honda stickers for your FXR.

    Hmmm, if I'm riding a Honda engine in a Suzuki frame, I guess that means I'm hiding the fact I'm gay? It won't mean I have to stop slagging Honda's though will it? I'm worried about this.

    Back to the original post, okay, so we've got the address sorted, time sorted, bike sorted (I take it you've got gear to wear), there will be a van with a blue bike (#13) and a purple bike (#44), and everyone should be coming up to us to get signed on.

    Make ssure you bring food & drink as there's nothing at the track - toilets & water's the limit. Hopefully we'll need sunblock and not rainsuits
