Road Racing Hill Climb - NZ National Championship

[fatboyzed]

Mummy says that i was the difficult one right from birth,good to see nothing has changed :-) .
Had an awsome time both days,and after some advice from Drew my times dropped rapidly (thanks again).
There may have only been two bikes in my class but im gonna call it second anyway and aim on that elusive first next year.
Cheers to all for an awsome weekend and see you there next year.

you guys will have to keep your eye out for Johno Burkhart, he was 3rd overall and 2nd 600 in his first race only been riding for about 2 months.... i dont think being an ex nat mx champ helps haha anyways its good to see more and more mx boys doing well!

Another moto boy was skidda in 2nd f3 on a pro twin spec and another days practice im sure i would have been in the mix....?

Anyway it was a great event with an excellent atmosphere stoked i made the trip

Well done everyone!!
Was great to watch and hear you all from the timing station taking off on your runs and returning amped and grinning each time. Sorry if I told any of you to F off, we were a little bit stressed and trying to do our best for you all making sure your times were correct before posting them up, promise we'll try to be more like the "well oiled machine" we were starting to become by the end of Sunday. It was wicked to see you all becoming faster as the day went on and also the friendly competition between riders to take out certain classes, very entertaining!! Glad you all had fun!

Edit: On a personal note.... A Huge Big Thank You to the lovely Number one, couldn't have done the timing with out you doll, you saved my sanity!!! And thanks to Carolyn too, you had this innate ability to appear just when we were in need of someone to lend us a hand and just do what needed doing without needing to be asked and hand-held, thank you SO much!!!

It was quite impressive. He got a free tyre from some kid for his efforts.

Johnno was very impressive - so were you with a 2.17s on your first time there !!

F3 was a hard fought battle (mine is a pro twin spec too by the way)

Be good to see you back next year - 12 months is too long to wait isn't it ?

Fuckin awesome weekend!!! Great to hang out with everyone, soo many people to thank for help so I'll do a report sometime soon.

Just had my times pmed to me, and after lunch on Saturday, the guy at the top taking all the info down still thought bikes were starting at 30 second intervills, I was second to run, and posted a time of 2m38.9s

Anybody care to do some maths?

I maybe shouldn't have kept making drastic changes to my rear suspension to try and find traction.

[Mooch]

On the up side I got a time of 2:16 with the timing at 30 seconds. That was a 40 second improvement on my last round which would have made me biggest improver. I fessed up and told them that in no way would I ever be able to do that kind of time.

[Drew]

Cancel my last, turns out there must have been other timing issue going on, with what others times came in. It's ok folks, I'm less gutted now.

[Sully60]

Your SV logging on now for you?

Only if it miraculously picked itself up off the floor and put it's own suspension and wheels on!

That was the "in" joke from Saturday, you had to be there. The butt of that joke did take it well I must say.

F3 was a hard fought battle (mine is a pro twin spec too by the way)

So mine was the actually the first F3 bike bike since you and Skidda were racing pro-twins?
Still clutching in vain at any hope of victory

Full in depth report of the scintillating Cliffhanger F3 Battle to come.

Looking forward to seeing the real results posted

I should type up an effort at a report when I get enough time on the 'puter. I have to give a very excited young lady first dibbs.
She is still totally fizzing.
