    Thanks Garry so it wasn't the corner I thought it was.

    I'll check it out on Google Earth later.
    Cheers

    Holy fuck, I ran wide on that corner and alomost lost it.... I hit the shiny patch and my bike slid across to the other lane. My bike has almost zilch suspension and just kept jumping across almost right to the other side of the lane. It shit me and I was quite lucky I wasnt going that fast but the road is pretty tricky....

    OK so here's another shot from Google Earth showing it as not the corner I thought it would be but the one Garry has photographed.

    Just checked my GPS track and on our leisurely ride I was doing 108km/hr just before that corner and at that corner I dropped to 83km/hr on entry and Str8 was following right behind me.
