    I can race against Carolla till 50kph and my power to weight ratio is 22bhp/129kg=5.86bhp/kg which is not a bad figure!!!!

    It was really good weather so I went to get Fish and Chips all the way to Kaiaua today!

    Took waterfront way to Howick, then whitford road to Clevedon, then to Kaiaua!

    Road were pretty dry but few in few places mud and all sorts of stuff in road.
    Few places there were road works and road condition were pretty bad as well.

    Theres that famous twisty bits between Cleverdon to Kaiaua with moss on the side and centreline of the road, I went there really slow. Keep it in 2nd didnt do anything stupid. I let so many biker pass me there, geez they went like 4times faster than me!

    After that it was good fun through all the corners (I let many bikers pass me there too haha).

    Overall I thought it can be done as Learner ride but gotta take everything really slooooooooooooooooooooooow. Especially that twisty bits coz so many crap on the road. Also its gotta be done when its Sunny and roads are dry too!

    I was bit tired so took SH2 and 1 back home (It was suppose to be easy ride but something wrong with my carbs so sitting in 5-6k makes bike really jerky)

    I thought we could do here as L-plate ride sometime when others are doing Coro. Again, roads gotta be dry and nice weather tho.

    It was good fun
