Oh yeah, I nearly forgot... our travel companion Diesel Pig made the papers again...

Here he is, number 57...

He should have been disqualified for being pushed along by the crashing bike, some people will do anything to assist!

Man, he's always knocking someone off!!
Hey, one thing Kick, great reports and all, but can you strat by mentioning what your actually racing? Not just this report but all yours rarely actually mention what bike or if its even a bike! youre racing. Don't know why, but I read thta as you and DP were racing a sidechair, and was trying to imagine what a RG framed DR600 chair was like!!

OK, maybe its just me...god, I need a holiday!
Yeah, and sstop moaning FFS about people finding their grid spot, yours was obviously easy to find, behind everyone else!

Nah, good on ya!!
Its the only thing about street circuits, generally you only get the circuit closed for one day, you try and run practice and qualifying for as many bikes as possible, try and cater for all types of bikes, but always end up with few actual races per bike. Was a nightmare when use to be on committee for Nelson Port Races too, but what do you do? Wanganui being such a big event now too, really need to get the Port races and Greymouth as part of the Street series, that'd be awesome!

As you got to the dummy grid they put a sticker on your bike with your grid number so there was no excuse for not knowing, I was pretty much were I expected to be

Theyre already talking about trying to get road closure Christmas day to run practice and qualifying
