    cheer bro yea she is already begging me to finish it - she has her eye on it.. she is also wanting to flick off the gn and buy herself something more like a sports bike. (she obviously doesnt think the 2stroke wil be finished anytime soon haha)

    I went for an hour's ride last night, 7.30-8.30. Went on my first 80k area (went up to Mosgiel lookout on three mile hill road). Felt good.
    good man, yip if you went out those ways and up to 80ks you'll be fine coming along with us on the port/peninsula rd etc, think u only allowed 70kph out there

    Either day suits me but looks like maybe rain on Sunday, so perhaps try Saturday first.

I'm riding with a couple new riders at the mo, gn250 gets along ok but is slow because.. well its not a grunty motor. and the zxr250 is building up some confidence but still a fairly sedate pace. Nothing that would scare anyone im sure

    I'm getting new tyres this week so hoping to head out on sat or sunday for a squirt somewhere and scrub the new tyres in

    Hoon eh! Well I do like to explore the acceleration capabilities of the mighty 225 from time to time

    In terms of exploring though, it's not Everest!
