Central Districts Touring Club?

Are race bikes allowed? If so I hope to be there.

Whats the cost?

but the guys are heading down Friday and staying the weekend down there. They do the trip every year I've done it once when I was still a pillion and was bored to tears at the track all day with no wheels. Chris will be there on s 04 R1 and I think he'll be accompanied by a VFR800 anniversary model, ZXR750RR, ZXR400.

I'll be leaving here Param about 0800 it's limited numbers so first in best dressed.

I imagine there will be a contingent leaving WMCC too so I'll hook up with those lot at the Southwards car museum turnoff.

Slow, Med, Fast and race classes!
I think its about $30-40 for the day.
I will have the R1 and the Ducati up there.

I was going to go with Bruce, but er, that doesn't look like its happening now...

Do you have to tape up headlights and take off indicators? Cause I can ride up there (at 70kph

) if I don't have to worry too much about that

Just tape up glass (mirrors indicators lights etc) you can do that on the day. Also pays to turn off headlights as the heat can melt the adhesive in the tape. For those dudes who can't turn off headlights unplug them. Some folk remove mirrors but I leave them on as it pays to know what's going on behind you. It's not a race and you can't rely on people to take the proper line. I also like to see the look on WT face when I outbrake him.
