weather looks good for tomorrow, be it a little cold, so remember boys and girls wrap up warm.
yay! good on your for giving it a go.....
i did the exact same, i rode a FXR150 to pukekohe, then went out on Bruce's weapon of a GSXR1000 (race tricked too ) i had only been riding for 4 or 5 months but Bruce followed me round on Daryl's bike.... got me hooked on the track and racing! Please listen to the pointers and what ever you do, dont look back, ride your own line and take the mirrors off or tape them up!
Taking it to the track thanks to: KIWIBIKE INSURANCE & PIRELLI TYRES, EXPERIENCE MOTORCYCLES, EBC Brakes, SUPERSPROX Sprockets, TSUBAKI Chains, RST Leathers, REPSOL Oils, FutureGrafix, Autolink
Cheers Chris and the guys at KIWIRIDER plus SUZUKI NZ. Very cold day but dry as. Had a great day, atmosphere was awesome and only saw a couple of minor lowsides all day. Very professionally run day with everything running like clockwork. Didn't bother riding in my last session as I'd had ample tracktime.
Considering how cold the track surface was I still felt reasonably confident with the level of grip. Those patched repairs to the track are very off putting from a pyschological point and the consensus I got was that they didn't offer the same level of grip as the original track surface.
Totally agree with Garry H... awesome day, well run and SO much fun
Thanks to all who helped run/organize/marshal etc... wouldn't of been able to be there if it wasn't for you who bared the freezing wind
Big ups to Goblin for gettin back on the track It was great seein you out there again
Lookin forward to the next one

Thanks for that, we're happy that you're happy. Great turn out and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Although we all work at Kiwi Rider the Suzuki track days are run by TrackFun (which is an events company owned and run by ourselves and is not part of Kiwi Rider) on behalf of Suzuki.
There's two days left now, 27th October at Manfeild and 9th December at Taupo. Anyone signing up for both will pay the bargain price of $75. For entry forms, e-mail chris@kiwirider.co.nz or call 09 416 5307 and ask for Chris or Julie.
What an awesome day - good turn out despite being a little chilly. I had lots of fun and managed to stick with my moto "This side up".
Thanks to Suzuki NZ and KiwiRider/Track Fun for putting on the day. Not only was the day well run but you guys got the weather right as well.
Looking forward to the next one.
Life is difficult because it is non-linear.
Just a quick note to say thanks to you and your team Chris for a well run day on Saturday.
Chris I noticed that there were a number of photograhers around the track at different times, will these phots be avaliable for us to view and/or purchase?
