Learner Ride to Cape Reinga (20 November)

[Grant`]

So I am getting a new Throttle and clip on for my bike to replace the broken one and should be good to ride by friday Getting a service done on both my bikes as well

Just took my new SV650 track bike up the road for the first time, dear god the power is awesome!! Taking it to the track on Saturday to get the feel for it etc... really excited!! My GSX will be boring after that haha.

I'm also looking forward to meeting everybody as well, will be alot of fun!!

Going to suck being you after the weekend then, going back to a 250 for fun is alright, but becuase you have to your going to be pissed off all the time now, until your road bike is bigger and better.

I'm planning on coming up to Auckland after work on Thursday, staying the night at a friends house in west aucks, then being at the caltex bright and early... Already got it loaded into my gps, can't fricken wait!!! How many more sleeps??? Bike's running mint, gear is all ready, finances are all organised, hurry up HURRY UP HURRY UP!!! is anyone else as amped about this trip as I am?!?!?! :-D

Getting to the 'go from' point early is a good idea Scott.
Ride brief at 9:15am and away at 9:30am.
As 1/3 of the ''Logistical Managment Team'' (like that?) it is advised not to turn up at 9:05am...

I'm looking forward to the post weekend discussion, gossip, slander & speculation no doubt.... Possibly even blackmail. considering the number of cameras...
