Its actually quite easy, ive barely practiced - just tried a few times. you just have to watch that the bike doesnt lurch, so i always do it in 6th and after accelerating.

You looked like you had improved greatly yourself Str8, I found I had to work to pass you up the takas on the way to lake ferry.

Thanks for organising the ride str8. Good to get over the hill. Even tho there was a wait for food it still tasted alright and gave us all time to talk anyway.

I was watching you do that just before we parted ways at Haywards, then remembered that I should really be watching where I'm going! My heart stopped as I turned (a bit too fast) and followed Sels across the traffic, not sure if I'd actually checked to make sure the lights were still green... so many damned distractions on the road!

air Str8, was great fun.

Damn, sounds like I missed a good one. Bright side is that the VTZ of doom has had the Plugs, timing chains, oil and a few other miscellaneous jobs done. So shes all ready for the next one.
Was going easy on it until I could get that stuff done so yay! Can't wait to get her back tomorrow and try her out.

Shite... Sounds like I missed a good one. Spent the week-end, ill in bed.

Glad you guys had a good ride.
