Shawn Donnelly and Jay Lawrence instructed a small group of us including Weasel Bartman Jane and myself. Was a good move as we rode heaps. Only drawback was we weren't allowed to use any brakes.

After lunch it was onto the front track for a few sessions hooning around.

Shapeing up to be another fine day tomorrow see you guys there.

Pitty bartman chucked it away. Lucky I was only on the ZXR and not the gixxer.

We'll probably find out later we were down to run the sausage sizzle! Or lead the fast laps... :spudwave:

$40 for the day.

Cheers for putting on a great day Phil and Co. Do you have a direct line to the weather Gods or something ?

Missed the sausage sizzle and don't know who was leading the fast laps but I was trailing them.

Perfect day with the the usual KB Wellington Crew turning up. Even saw Mikey late in the afternoon.

Highlight for me was following Derek Hill riding SVS's bike. Following a rider of his skill level for a few laps is extremely helpful.

The fast laps were dominated by Pete (Aprilia RSV), Mark (GSXR750) and Jimbo600 - Craig Freethey went out in the third session and was quick also.

Craig Shirrifs was blindingly quick (as usual) in the race sessions.

My rear tyre went off in the third session and was fun with a bit of sliding here and there, quite predictable, but I pulled in not wanting to tempt fate too much.

Not bad, I'd put my money on Cycosis over him any day though.

awesome day...brillent weather...good people....good fun...

All that was missing was the dancing girls

good to meet a few of the KB crew...

**skelstar** · 23rd October 2005, 19:57

I (+ MoFun and PBastard) came up and watched for a few rounds. Sorry didnt know it was you cow.p, I would have introduced myself. A good day altogether, beautiful weather, the ride home was a bit crap from MacKays crossing onwards (bloody double yellow lines). Thought S.Bill's new bike looked awesome. So...who won the 'race'

?

Thanks to everyone who turned up - made it a great day. No real problems and only a few minor offs. Being able to arrange the weather was a nice touch.
