    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    That was a great day

    Those that stayed away cause it was raining really missed out, the weather turned out to be fantastic for most of the afternoon.

    The bike ran well and stayed together. Was getting more used to it as the day went on.

    Looking forward to the next round already, where I will turn my head in the corners.

    I am so proud of you baby! You worked so hard on it and you and Skunk have done a bloody good job!! I have to say I rather enjoyed my 5 or 6 laps on the Silver Slider, I reckon you'll go good on it once you stop worrying about all the little rattles and the wheel sizes and just ride it like a bucket. Gotta fix those vibrating foot-pegs though, good golly gosh!! (without the phone)

    I had a wicked awesome day!! Pamela has got to be the most reliable little girl, she just goes and goes (once she is persuaded to go in the first place) and just handles everything I throw at her. No wins or placing for us again today, but we rode every session we could and finished every B grade race (even after stalling on the start line! grr), managed to hold up as many other racers as possible with the "Norf Welly Massif Block" and had a fandiddilytastic day!! (still grinning!!)

    Oh and one of the highlights of the day for me was seeing Skunk doing so well out there on Pamela's big brother/sister. Well done Andrew, you deserve it!

    Was an awesome day alright.

    Just peeved that one of the chain adjusters broke on Lady P, send the rear wheel out of alignment and throwing the chain !!
    This happened twice and both times it happened I got some horrendous slides that I still don't know how I didn't crash !!!

    Great pics, Sully dude !!
    Yeah the battle with Bungbung and I was a hard case, some serious elbowing going on !!

    Big credit to Kendog for working so hard to get his silver beasty out there and going so well, and hard luck to Sully for blowing a valve on the Lead-Sled.
    Goddamn you were pulling some revs when that throttle stuck open !

    Onwards to the next meeting, this month too !!!

    No, I believe the axle is okay length. The chain adjuster bolt broke off taking out the washer that sits on the end of the swingarm, this being the LHS one. So, it pulls the wheel sideways under acceleration while cranked over, taking the sprockets out of alignment and woohoo, I fight to keep the bike from highsiding me !!!

    Well that's my theory anyway, but I hear what you're saying
