    The GPS?? Do you mean Global Positioning System or something else??

    yeh, i actually got to have a go at decent pace in the end because we got mixed in the medium group, and the pace leader 'busted' opened it up a bit for some fun... me and buggy were right behind him.

    Looking forward to this time as i wont be worrying about my cam chain dying on me - and i might even have had the valves done and had the bike tuned which means more power

    And i will be in my leathers this time!

    Who needs a motel room?? I'm going to book a room on Monday and so far it's me and Ninjaboy sharing a room. Let me know quickly and I'll make the booking.

    Come along. They have a slow group if you don't feel confident. But a track day on a new bike is the best thing you can do. It's THE best place to get to know your bike because it's a control environment and no speed restrictions.

    Yeah, Ill be out there on my new bike. Not really interested in top speed, just tipping it over (not all the way) through the sweeper etc. Keen to have a closer look at the corners....closer than from the grandstand anyway .
