Stop that silly reverse trash talking, just get out there and brake later, lean further and get on the gas harder.

You mean I have to take the RSV over 3,000 rpm?

Our family’s would just like to touch base with everyone regards to this track day as the time grows nearer. Firstly thank you to everyone who has already volunteered to help out on this day. Every bit of help is much appreciated.

Our main objective for this day is for all of Bruce and Daryl’s good friends and family to be able to get together for a fun day to pay ‘tribute’ to two awesome guys taken tragically far too soon and to help each other remember the GOOD times, we all had with them.

Memorial ceremonies will be held to a bare minimum but both families are more than happy for any one and / or groups of friends who may wish to contribute something personal during this day.

Allan Ure (Kiwifruit) has been a huge help to our family’s in getting this day organised. Thanks so much Allan. He has a copy of the proposed fun program which include’s plenty of amateur stunting (something both the boys loved to a passion) but hopefully something for everyone, if anyone wants to add or contribute anything to the program for the day all ideas would be more than welcome. Either PM us or Allan.

Entry for this day is by DONATION only, We are not out to make a profit or even worried about breaking even, and will happily pick up any short fallings financially on the day if necessary.

This day is all about having fun in a safe environment, and to remember all the good things about these two awesome men.

See you all there and remember our prime aim is to have fun.

Would have been up there if I wasn't already going to the Suzuki one the next weekend. Can't afford to get to Taupo and back plus track day two weekends in a row. Sorry

Have donated a little to the fund though as I'm sure every little bit helps

Hope you all have a fanTAZtic time.

... on Tuesday 4 December there is an opportunity to make a case directly to the Transport Community as they are having a Road Safety Barrier Systems Workshop at the Suncourt Motel!

We believe this is maybe the best opportunity ever to get close to the decision-makers. The thread is here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=59471.

Many of us are riding up especially from Wellington or Auckland just to make the most of the opportunity to raise the awarenes. If you can afford an extra night or two in town, we'd appreciate your support.
