    hey is there actually a reason we're leaving shannon at 9? we dont HAVE to all be up that early do we? racing usually starts at about 11-11:30? (i might be way off there)

    i'm not bugged...just wondering...but the poor buggers coming from wellington having to get up at 6ish to ride on winter roads.....why not leave it til 9:30-10? (and 86 will appreciate it too)

    the guys from welly want to leave early .. is my understanding .. or mis understanding they coming to look at a bike in palmy .. so can take them the long way through ..

    .. I am always up early so no biggie .. & thought it gives us a bit of leeway to have a ride prior ... & perhaps a cafe stop before getting to manfield .. will still be arriving about 11ish

    didn't you know best part of the day is early morning ??

    [QUOTE=86GSXR;1136213]Well, enough of me, what did YOU think of my performance LOL QUOTE]

    What sort of performance you planning to put on at 8am in the morning for Yod

    I don't think a complicated lighting set will do it for him

    Maybe just sing in the shower instead!!!!

    Yod has a point though, you two aren't that slow on two wheels you could probably make it 9am and still be fine for time. Nowt to do with me anyway, will be cuddling Koalas I think

    As long as there's a cafe stop early is just a state of mind (and body).

    Still a few days to go, plenty of options.

    yep....weather is 50/50 as far as i can tell right now, finges crossed its not too damp

    mrs yod may meet us at manfeild later in the day - partly so she can sleep in, partly so i actually get to experience the RF 1-up for a change (aint she the sweetest), can barely remember what its like

    so nice to be able to pillion her 'properly' tho...the difference between the viffer and the riffer is...... just ridiculous

    lightweight

    As to your earlier comment, high speed internet ruins one for anything else after a while

    Does encourage KB when I should be working but it is so quick I see it as necessary relaxation

    Ah, you young un's. When I was your age, I'd get up 5 hours before I went to bed, run 20 miles in the snow and then swim home for a hearty breakfast of lamb chops. Aye, those were the days by crikey
