    I wanna get knee pad before if I am going.

    POLL: Banzai should go to the ride tomorrow?
    -YES
    -NO
    -PILLION
    How on earth does under 95kmph equate to under 80kmph?! Rie reckons you're all good for tomo, but I wouldn't wanna piss off el presidente... Maybe explain to him how much practise you've done and how many more k's, and see what he says?

    I'll be hanging out at the back with any L-platers to keep an eye on things, and hopefully be able to help out with the lines into corners etc... But I dunno about under 80kph Banzai? Is it cause of your gasket problem?

    But yeah I'm just gonna be cruising and enjoying the scenery, lol well that's what I'm saying now anyway... Those twisties may brainwash me in my dreams tonight.

    actually, rie had momentarily forgotten that banzai's gn is without necessary gasket et al and cannot go over 95kh. (sorry man. i actually had no idea when we were going through the motorway today.)

    rie is actually really, really slow - in fact she is so slow that she's become quite good at it.

    so if banzai's allowed to come she's happy to do 80.

    if not, you all have to be super nice to me.

    No worries I'll be rocking it out with ya . Everyone will go at their own pace, and I'll chill with whoever is hanging behind, no probs.

    WELL.......

    I think GN can do 100. But then above 6500rpm isn't good for that engine.

    On the way back to uni from Haldanes I hit 95 so I'm just saying 95 is ok todo but not sure about how bad its stressing the gaskets.

    I don't know how bad is the gasket, I'm waiting for el presidente to come online on MSN....

    All good, well if you come you don't have to worry about anything as at least Rie and I will be chillin' with ya, and we(I at least) wont be going much over 100 anyway cause of the cops up that way. As long as you reckon you'll be ok open road doing at least like 95 on the straights, the corners will be nice and slow so doesn't matter how fast she goes then.

    Had chat with Stephen and Rob, decided not to go this time. Only 1 week on the road is bit too weak to go for a ride.

    Planning to shop around tomorrow, so can join my shopping ride if any of you want to!!!

    Have fun guys!
