    The perfect road....But!

    I just like to start with...
    Petrol is 10c a litre more here.


    Went for a ride around lake Kaniere the otherday, found the best twisty road down here yet. But it's gravel For a short time I was contemplating on getting that Aprillia 550 just for the roads down here. They are a bit of a shambles and their signposting for tight corners always gets a nervious chortel out of me.
    Suprise corners, you have only some wiff of an idea that the sign 6 corners back might have been refurring to this corner too.
    But I'm sure that they keep it that way for a reason, something to do with Farmers drifting their tractors? Who knows?

    Anywho if they made that gravel road into a tarsealed road it would be nuts! 10km of tight twisties, and a lovely dip in the lake if you bin it
    The world will look up and shout "Save Us!", and I'll whisper "no"

    Nice to see you've discovered roads that aren't sealed.

    The same aprillia 550 that needs an engine rebuild after 60 hours of use. If aprillia wise up they will build a version of that engine that is bulit proof and stick it in an RS frame, and reinvent the 600cc class.
