Bugger Puke this time

assuming I can get my radiator fixed in time is anyone keen on a blat down to Manfield

to support the Kbers racing that day? would look at leaving Friday I guess ?, pm if interested.

F/F

Would love to go F/F but only if i got to race, and i think 600kms of riding is too much for the RG, and it will cost too much to cart my bike down

oh well

KK, ill be there

if im getting 1:21's and 1:20's ill be happy, as long as those fucking drifters dont drag any mud on to the track.....

**Cajun** · 18th July 2004, 12:04

if weather looks good i might give the k4 some laps around puke

**curious george** · 18th July 2004, 14:26

There with bells on.
(only if it's good weather though)

The drifters may be putting the crap on the track,but track management should be making sure that either the drifters clean it up or track staff do.

Don't just bitch about it on here, make sure whoevers running the track know about the problem and do something about it,the more people that get in their ear about it the more chance of something being done.

Yep, im going to ask Gary next time to clean up the track after the drifters...

Strength in numbers! It's not a quick job, track sweeping, but if 10 of us go and complain, or grab a broom, it might work?
Or he could make the drifters sweep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah I'll probably come along weather permitting. Just take it easy on me this time and keep your distance KK!

**Darryboy** · 18th July 2004, 19:07

Hey guys,

I'm keen to take my bike on the track but I haven't had much riding experience (1200kms).

Would going to the track be good for building experience or should I get more experience on the road first?

I hope this makes sense (2x 21st in 2 nights has left me jaded)

Cheers!

**Kwaka-Kid** · 18th July 2004, 20:10

hard to say really darryboy, to be honest id usually so go get some more street exp @ getting smooth etc, but looking @ TS he has picked it up so quick etc that out on the track he was without much exp (although more then you have..) i wouldnt like to make the call for you, it will definatly improve your riding im sure - but at this stage theres loads of that improving that could be done cheaper i.e on the street.
Tis up to you, maybe just come for a looksee?

**R6_kid:Me** · 18th July 2004, 20:24

hey guys,
im keen if i've got the money for entry. How much is it? If i can afford i will be there with some knee pads (from the skating days) as knee sliders

Its 80 bucks Gareth

lol that sounds like a KK thing skater knee pads LMAO...... Lets put it in perspective, i had brand new knee sliders yesterday, i rode my bike for 20 laps and MR's bike for 20 laps..... after that i had no slider left and a hole in my leathers

i say, forget the sliders and just go out and have fun

Cheers,
