Finally got me knee down! And fliped the bike.. :(

I'm still thinking laps of western springs lake . . . you'd probably only get one in before being politely asked to move along please, but what a cool track!

i would, but i'm scared of geese..... they have shifty eyes and they work for the russians.....

yep yep
and don't even get me started on them eels

[Postie]

p.s. there aint much racing on till next year but were keen to go "practice" somewhere.... you in??

Just need to change the tyres cause we are down to the canvas....

pfftt, excuses, get yer gear on and lets go and tear up some rubber and clothes and sliders and watch people do superman impressions......
where to?

[aff-man]

yeh i found out the hard way what decking out standard pegs does... well there wasn't much left of the peg.

pic 1 = customised pegs (higher and more in)
pic 2 = lean angle
pic 3 = front tyre
pic 4 = rear tyre worn through

[WRT]

Well done Aff-man, looks like you have been getting those tyres properly warmed up!

Buggy, Postie, what sortta lean angle to your's get standard? Cant be too far off that . . .

Actually it's a lot less than that with the standard pegs..... you can't really see it proper in the pic but it's quite a steep angle for the sitting position.

the lean on ours is pretty much that, must be different bikes.....

[WRT]

Thats what I thought. They lean over just far enough to balance on the pegs without tipping, but still far enough to spill the petrol . . .

[aff-man]

Nope it's not ... believe me. the old pegs when tucked up were still decking out really badly, with these pegs you can lean a lot more without decking the pegs out which cause the back to slide out something cronic. These ones allow you to get a little lower and drift the back around corners (due to shitty tyres not power... believe me)

Hmmmm we have found a few car parks out this way that are basically deserted in the evenings/ sundays... We should organise something....

And so the underground racing ring begins mooohahahahaha

[WRT]

Yup, know all about that, especially when your back tyre isnt quite fully inflated . . .

Speaking of which, anyone know a good place to get cordura wear fixed? I'm in need of a good seamstress (no smart comments from Terry Pratchett readers please) as my gear now has some nasty scrapes on it. Bloody things only a month or so old too . . .

[Devil]

Damn, what do I need to do to get a go? (Apart from buying one)

[White trash]

If ya let me know where yas are going, I'll come along and show you how it's (not) done.

[Broomie]

Do you guys not travel passed the small set of hills to your south?

This weekend we have a huge event lined up in Edgecombe

Car parks ..... lakes ..... footpaths ...... just don't f*ck the sport up for the rest of us

Cheers

Good point Broomie. This shit happened in Wellington recently and the bucket guys lost one of their best venues due to pocket bikes using it for unofficial practice.

There's heaps of events everywherefor these, there's one tonight at Silverdale indoor karting at 7pm, let's not get lumped in with the mini chopper brigade by riding wherever the hell we want.
