    Cool Well it's wet at the track !!!

    I went over and signed up ... there's plenty of people there but with the weather settling in for the day I wasn't all that keen on getting out there on my marginal front tyre !! Call me a wimp but just getting there it wasn't much fun either and as the heavens opened for unteenth time I decided that it was probably for the best and headed home for a hot cuppa and some toast .... Bloody annoying really ..... :sneaky2:
    Still thanks to Badlieutenant for the generous gesture he made ..... we'll sort out what to with that mate !! ....
    Oh and for those that read this now and feel like some wet weather riding ... they have made it a free day on the track ... so no cost just show up and sign up and ride !! .. having said that it's pissing down here in Palmy now ....
    A man can move much faster without a millstone around his neck, so if he gets the chance to lose her he'd better drop her and run like heck !! .. (10cc "Modern Man Blues" - Deceptive Bends)

    bummer, still there's no telling what the weather will do, it's bloody awful here today too, and we are sposed to have the monopoly on fine weather here.

    It's nice here. Not overly warm and a few small clouds in the sky. Hope some of you chch kb'ers are out enjoying it.

    Yeah, I went over and had a look. Track was very wet But there still seemed to be plenty of people on it just going quite slow. Came home as was still raining and wasn't very interesting to watch.

    turned up at 730 am to watch the rain fall.... hmm whos idea was this again???
    i missed out on a few sessions cause didnt want to go out in rain, it finally cheared up enough and i decided to go for a blat... went ok but dropped it in the final all comers session (the very end). lost the front coming into the final corner before the back straight, could not have done it better because my mate was standing right on the corner where i crashed with a CAMERA!!!
    will post it when he can send it up to me and will have full explaination.
    yeah... sorry bro, i thought that ment miles 'n hour.
