[enigma51]

Thanks everyone had a good day

Though i give the backing in thing ago so thanks Jay laurence for giving one or two pointers. I would not have giving it ago if it was not for the theme of the day (yes even if i said before I want to do it) I still did not pull it off other than to realise i can brake later if use the rear brakes so it was not all a bad "try"

[WRT]

Thanks to all involved, had an awesome time. Was definitely the most relaxed track day I've been to, great to see everyone so relaxed and enjoying themselves.

I finally lost my track virginity yesterday. I can't think of a more fitting day for it to have happened on. I had an absolute blast cruising about in the medium and slow groups and getting my head around the whole 'superbike on a racetrack' thing.

Steve, I owe you one bro, thanks for lending me your R1 for the day!

Many thanks to the families for making it happen, and props to Allan and Sue from MotoTT for their organisational expertise. A top-notch job done by all.



My final memory of the day is of an empty pit lane in the late afternoon sunshine, and the two small kids who were standing there, jumping and laughing as their balloons wafted up into the blue sky over the racetrack.

Daryl and Bruce would have approved...

Thanks heaps to Dale and the Mathies for the day...and everyone who helped organise it!! Marshells,etc... and for those that came!! Fricken awesome!!

[MadDuck]

That was an awesome day....and a very fitting way to spend the day remembering the lads.

Stuck out in "Marshall-no-mans-land" we kind of missed a lot of the atmosphere BUT the "wohoos" from the guys coming around lining up to do the stunting sessions was enough to put a damn big smile on my face!

Thanks to the families, Allan, Sue and Shane for a very well organised day.

What a wicked day!
Huge thanks to MadDuck, and Big Dog for standing out in the marshal boxes allllllll day. Cowpoos, White Trash and boomer for the priceless commentary.... really gave the day a great atmosphere. Mental-Trousers for holding it all together, the level headed voice of reason.
Thank you SueVFR (Mum) for your help, really was invaluable.
Thank you Peggy, Steve, Jenie and Dale. Was a real honour to be involved with you all to make this happen.

Thank you to the riders. I've never seen such well a behaived group at a trackday. Was awesome to see you all having such a good time. I saw alot of improvement in alot of you throughout the day, Dale and the lady on the blue SV most notably so. The stunt group went really well, some wicked skills on display there guys.

The lunchtime games were a laugh! Barbender = animal steel, that tyre throw was inspired.
The pizza hit the spot! Yum

I couldn't have hoped for a better day, everything went so well.
Thank you everyone.
Was a great tribute to the boys.

thanks for an amazing day, to everybody, had one major oh crap moment trying to catch an rs 250 into turn one....my bike decided to run wide and say zxr250's cant turn at this speed.....but managed to stand her up n stop real quick haha....

but yeah what more can i say i think evberybody has covered it really

the boys would be proud....

on another note.....anybody wanna buy a blown up zxr250?

[Keystone19]

I had hoped to spend the year refining my wheelies just so I could pull some for the boys yesterday. What with one thing and another, the practice never really happened (mainly due to an injury mid year) so I wasn't going to go out in the stunt session yesterday knowing that my efforts would be dodgy at worst and minimal at best.

After a bit of pressure (mainly from myself coz I'd said at the beginning of this thread I would) I went out anyway. Stoked I did, glad I could at least get the wheel off the ground for the boys, would have done the rest of the sessions if we had stayed.

Great to catch up with everyone. Dale - you're awesome!

you still owe us 10 push ups sunshine!!

[Mental Trousers]

you still owe us 10 push ups sunshine!!

Lucky it was a fun day. Riding in pit lane without a helmet more than 6 times after warnings would've been an instant go home at any other track day.

Great to see you out there representing on one wheel for the biker babes, Jill. Respect!



Pity you couldn't hang about and dish out that learn you've been promising me for years, but I'll take a raincheck for next time...
