RG.. Sounds like we leavin pram bout 8am'ish, So will be coming through Levin bout 8.30ish.
Welcome to join everyone (or whoever im with)

Quasievil..They usually let people who didnt get to go out first time go out the next time. (if that makes any sense to anyone?) so everyone gets a chance to go out.
People can always go Motel styles in Feilding. ("RaceWay Motel")
Would only cost about $20 each-MAX if you outta towners stay in the same unit.
Thats what lot of people do during Winter series. Its right next to the track!
Sounds like MR, RR and TS are needing a place to stay too. So get in touch and work something out!
Just an idea.

Easy to find keep an eye out in the forum to see which way everyone is going and at what time, or make your own way to Feilding, find the mobil gas station and take the road opposite. Trackdays have a slow class and it's tailor made for dudes like yourself. No pressure, no dramas, just awesome fun. No one there is out to judge other riders on ability it's purely a personal learning experience. You might have to be in possession of full leathers though. Other than that go for it.

Only if you want to.
They dont usually need to have that done to a road bike.
But it is always safer if you do.
Its your choice.
I wont be on the R1, But the Ducati has already had it done. So Im sorted.

MAN ITS GONNA BE A SLOW WEEK!!!
