Is it shitty weather wise in the Manawatu today?

**banditrider** · 17th October 2009, 07:20

Dunno, but according to the Dom, it's pretty crappy everywhere we're going...

Overcast, but very mild at this stage (quite pleasant actually).

Wind is currently about 5 knots, so it may be blowing its arse by 10am. Check back later.

I think Cowboyz is ready:

The bugger of thinking I'll go to bed late,wake up early,then grab another couple hours sleep say 11ish,then the nerves,excitement hit and can't sleep.

A little bit of insanity goes a long way, all the best guys, Lance you have had a hair cut eh?, either that or you sleep with your helmet on....

115miles?? HHmm I was hitting reserve not much over 100miles when I was riding to work weekly. I thought that was just cos of riding through town. Might google the RF fuel range and if not right get it looked at. Then again, you might get another 80miles on reserve lol..

Wanna test that one out for me? lol
