AWNMR - Akl Wednesday Night Mentor Ride

[Big Dog]

Thanks for er, carrying the CaN?
Excellent night, nice to see even the "experienced" visibly having things click.

Can't remember who said it in what book but "The difference between a racing line and road line is that on a track there is a reasonable expectation that there is no-one coming the other way."

[Lteejay]

Once again another great night. Thanks to Noel for all the info, fantastic

Lesson learnt:take a look at my tyre pressure, hadn't even thought about it

[irishlad]

Thanks for organising the evening. Found it very useful. Now trying to look to horizon at all times. Will keep practising. Thanks Noel

[irishlad]

Also to say that Noel isn't a fat B. Because what'd that make the rest of us??

Thank you all for the kind comments.

Well, I ain't no racehorse, unless of course it is a Clydesdale race.
As for the food - not a problem at all, I got enough of it stored up to last a fair while.
Tankslapper, hopefully you wont need to know about this for a while, so we can cover that off next time.

You will not EVER encounter a true tankslpper on an FXR150. In fact they are so rare nowdays that not many people have had one. And if you do there's not a lot you can do anyway. You either live. Or you die. Which, is in the capricious hands of the Biker Gods. Forget about them.

Unless... your bike was naughty and threw you off... then you can slap your tank.

SUGGESTIONS FOR NEXT WEEK?

- On a postcard: PO Box Disco Dans Brain.

As discussed last week, we may go for a slow easy ride to Huia.

Insert feedback here.....

Frosty, could you please do some 'pruning' of this thread.... lots of pages for people to read through!! 'ta'

[Karma]

Practice sessions are one thing, but you can't beat some real world experience... I'd vote for a slowish ride somewheres.

[deathstar]

hmm 9 1/2 style Disco, had a 10 walking round work today in a bikini top but that was a different matter ... i wish i could ride properly

[M1CRO:Me]

Unless you do a few things wrong and create one yourself

I agree, there is a fair bit to wade thru to catch up on discussions.
Perhaps we can get a new thread started up for 2007?
