Awesome day.
Learnt a whole lot from TR - changed my cornering technique a bunch. Felt crazy at first but definitely getting through the turns quicker and smoother.
Really sweet organisation thanks to KR (all teh lads were cool).
Groups were all good too... got passed by some freakishly fast peeps but learnt a lot.
And absolutely NO chicken strips left
Primo primo day, thanks to all that helped orgainise the event, thats the most track time I have ever had, and they let us do wheelies ...looking fwd to seeing some pics,...
Also had a fantastic day. Was having a huge problem with arm pump in my right hand- it was so bad at times that I had to pull in because I couldn't brake hard enough. I took till the second to last session to realise that the brake pads which were only half worn a few days earlier were now completely stuffed and overheating- the arm pump was masking the fact that I was pulling VERY hard. So I pulled in, resigned to not getting out again.
Then 30UTD offered a ride on his K4. How could I say no?:spudwhat: My god! What a huge difference! Brakes that actually work can make a huge difference And the handling - yikes! All I can say is man thats an easy bike to ride!
Got shown the correct lines by Tony Rees- VERY different to what I (and most other riders) thought was the line. What a bloody nice guy- very approachable and helpful.
A huge thanks to Kiwi Rider for organising a well run event and to Canterbury Rides for sponsoring it.
Mate...... I have never seen a front tyre with no chicken stripes, but in your case it was from bad riding... having said that after a few pointers you improved immensely, now TR had a lot to do with that and I was told that TonyB gave you advice too... but who taught Tony all he knows (sitting on the bike on the paddock stand in the garage waent so dumb after all aye T)Originally Posted by manuboy
Anyway.... whos this dumb arse
ps: I believe there is more pics to follow
cheers DD
(Definately Dodgy)
Had a bloody good day at the track. Even though I was only a flag marshal, I learnt a lot by watching TR on the track and listening to him at the lunch break. Man he runs sweet lines.
Dangerous, was that you riding the Fortuna in the intermedate section :-)
