red medium older style quasi, have a small piece of grey duck tape on one of the gloves.
Left them near where luke was doing his bbq. I knew i forgot something!

Bring Them along next month please, they are spares so don't need them urgently.

Well I was in a pretty naff mood by the time I got there yesterday, I’m usually a pretty even tempered guy, but the later & later it got the more agitated I got. So what does it take to wind me up? 5 larger petrol station, 2 foodmarts & a supermarket later. All I was after was a prepacked Sammie for lunch & a decent pie. Apparently a hot commodity on a Sunday morning. Fail.

So now pretty wild & quite hungry from the swearing, I return down Brooklyn hill & I ended up going to the bakery on willis street. I got only the pie “oh we don’t make sandwiches in the weekend” Sheesh! Obviously I have unusual taste in food. Who would want a sandwich? Not on the weekend.

Swearing at every fothermucker & current who got in my way or pulled out & did 35kph I was destined to arrive late. . . To a foul wind. & a weird track.

Bike stayed in the van. I could only see crashing & a bad time. Time to return to the tranquillity of the mancave & fettle 2 stroke motorcycles.

Oh well, Taumarunui in 3 weeks.

Yopu could have bought a sausage from Luke, and a chocolate brownie, and a thing that looked like russian slice. There were even cupcakes with hundreds and thousands

**F5 Dave** · 22nd September 2008, 15:42

Well I had one of the brownies, but I try not to eat bbq sausies unless under extreme duress.

The chocolate brownies were stupidly good.

I didn't like the top corner arrangement at all, I couldn't for the life of me connect those corners at the top, I think everyone managed to lap me at least once even though the bike was running the best it has (except for the last race where I had some carburation issues.
So unlike previously, the track just didn't feel to flow, but...
I did finish both points races, after breaking a chain in the fun race, and managed a 6th place for the series overall (the top placed back-boned bike

)

I'll have the FXR-GP ready for next season...bring it on!

Hmmm, where did I come in the backboned class? Third I think...

Anyway - I may be the only backboned bike in A grade next year.

Slingshot; have you looked at the two stroke vs four stroke breakdown. You could be first there too. Did you beat F5 Dave?

Nope, he was 4th overall (I think) so he's taken out the top spot for two-strokers and F5.

Sooooo, those who tried Nigel's Chocolate Brownie liked it eh, sweet, I'll get him to make it more often

Nice one, I saw SC taking snaps...by that stage I was so far behind in the race so I thought I'd do some race poses to make it look like I was going fast on camera.

PS...are you hosting these on your server...cause I can't open up the big images, it's just taking for ever.
