Always tempted. Keen to play on the Mangamukas again

[English Kiwi]

Sooo...i've just found out i'm already in Negative leave

So I will be riding up straight after work on the Friday (Lanky has a more suitable bike now to carry all our crap )

I roughly know the way to Coopers so if anyone else is riding up later on Friday let me know and I'll be more than happy to have a buddy

Looking forward to it already

I checked my calendar at work and someone has booked me for that weekend but they still can't tell me if they actually need me.
Really want to go. Will harass them this week.

Kawia was only 1 night and that was a great trip, can't wait for this. might get a bigger back pack to survive the 2 days, I tested my bikes range last week, I can get 150km (of 'spirited' riding) on my first tank before needing my reserve. So I don't need so frequent gas stops lol. My reserve is 4l and my main tank is 7l so I might get 250km on 1 stop.

Legend may be driving up after work on Friday, or maybe on Saturday. But still not sure at this stage.

I cant believe that it was a year ago, time has just flown by. I was thinking of Tony the other day and remembered how cool it was for him to tick the cape off his bucket list. I cant wait for this one.

So, I have some good news and some bad news... it turns out my bike rebuild has eaten into my finances a lot more than I had initially expected, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it on this trip. The good news is though, the bike is coming along really well, and I'm hoping to be back riding in time for the summers track days! Unfortunately though, being that the bike will be only track capable, that means no more road trips for me until the 600rr is safely tucked up in the garage... hopefully this time next year! :-)

(I know I said I'd be more than happy to bring the cage, but it drinks more petrol than I do coca-cola and red bull put together! Sorry!)
