Disappointing about Twilight Rd -- it's now gravel. Leong and I took a nosy up to see how far the gravel extended but it was decided the pansy-boys with fairings might not enjoy themselves. So we carried on straight.

You said you wouldn`t tell anyone ........Bitch.....

Yeah ummm those other pansies with fairings

Twilight is gravel now? Bugger! Rode through there last week and it was still sweet as tarmac with a few patchy bits.

Wish i could've made it, but some inconsiderate people actually sent in stuff so i had work to do today. Honestly, some people just have no consideration...

Next time!

Great ride all. Loved it, especially that long 25km/h corner , my biggest lean so far, very happy with myself.

Here are the photos I've been taking troughts the ride:

Yes, Thanks for organising howdamnhard. It really was THE most orderly KB ride I've ever been on - helped by the fact that there were only 7, and that the pace was legal. For those interested, I got 180km out of that tank before reserve.

Thanks for the pics Toto - you phone does take good pics!!

Cheers for taking the photos -- I see you managed to catch me twice in the motions of starting my bike

Actually quite tired from all that running today, I've got soft from being able to kick-start when cold around town. Have some coils and CDIs that I might have a play with tomorrow.

Yea , your bike has a Soul brother, was great fun to watch you

I loved it. Not in a funny laughing at you way but in a "So dedicated" way. You are made us all look like softies and you as the HARDCORE Biker

, great stuff. You gotta teach me the trick in case I need to push start my bike sometime...
