Kiwi Biker Track day 2 18/12/05 Taupo

[GSVR]

Huge thanks to everyone that was involved in the organising and running of this.

Despite all the problems with crap all over the track at the start and the ocassional shower this day was excellent. The track surface is getting better and better as more of it gets resealed.

Same again, big thanks to Frosty, Doogal, Pillion, baby-bikie ("get yer pants on buoy!") et al who all made it happen for us. It was a good 'un for this track n00b.

Here are some pics I got.

Is that right Swanny? I saw his/your R1 at Puke the day Daryl came off and was hospitalised, and not for one moment did I know it was your old one! Daryl, it's great you've overcome your injuries and are back at the track.

Glad to hear you had a great time, sorry I couldn't join you.

Maybe its jinxed.

[FROSTY:Me]

For those of you that diddnt know--we were the first ever to go on the new sweeper so i guess it was little wonder it was so slippery -not helped by the baked in coating of clay

Thannks to Frosty and team for a fantastic day. I loved every second of it - even the rain!

HUGE thanks to Frosty for organising the track day. I really enjoyed my track debut. I was the slowest one out there, but my confidence starting developing through the day.

Huge thanks also go to the marshalls (one in particular who helped me with a wee problem I had with my bike - sorry I didn't get your name but it was very much appreciated), and to all those who helped behind the scenes.

Was good to meet so many KBers and have a good natter. I had a fantastic day. Cheers to everyone.

I have heaps of photos - will start a thread in the stunting forum with the wheelie pics.

Can't thank everyone that helped to make this happen enough. Was nice to have some selfish time on the track after Marshalling @ Puke, so REALLY appreciated what you guys and girls were doing for us out there. Well run Tony/Frosty. Flagging system seemed to work well. Nice of you to try out the inside edge of the hairpin for us Glad you and the SV were OK.

Thanks Frosty and the team for all their efforts. I had a great day. Rain, what rain.

[MadDuck]

Thanks Frosty and crew for an awesome day. I too bailed when the heavens opened as my gear was still damp from the ride down on Saturday and I was totally sick of being wet.

Great company and cool to catch up with some I havent seen for ages. The track time itself was fantastic and I am keen to have another go...I think I am getting just a tad faster.

Only downer - getting a SPEEDING TICKET just north of Taupo dammit!

big thanks to Frosty and the crew.. good job on the day, despite the weather Gods letting us down. And just when I was really getting into it too. Oh well, already looking forward to the next one!!

I got every wheelie on film btw (well mostly, I missed a bit cos I would focus on one of the two riders.

I'll post it here and there when I have a version of a decent size.

Ditto to what everyone else has said, didn't think i'd even get the bike off the ute given the forecast and my bung body.

But suprisingly, a good dose of painkillers and adrenalin meant that riding was fairly painless throughout the day, until home time when I hurt shoulder loading bike back up, nevermind, some more drugs and a couple of healthy bourbons when I got home soon sorted that out.

Cheers to those that made it happen and look foward to next time.
