    no cheap shots from me my man, I wouldn't accuse you of such a thing!
    Merely a reminder of the dangers of an out of control fire!

    Found some cheap extinguishers.
    Here...

    Ordered 3 of these bad boys. $19.95 each 0.4L.

    Got in touch with someone from Epic Events to ask if they required the extinguisher to be of a certain type. Ie: chemical, foam etc.... They had no preference so these should be sweet. They come with a mounting bracket of some description.

    Safety first, that's for sure.

    BUT part of the reason for every bike having one is that you should have a steady stream of supplies... hopefully, but of course there's Murphy's Law. The few times I've seen fires dealt to, the site has been littered with spent extinguishers.

    haha cheers! Yeah ill check the ramp/hill out first, if its too rough I wont bother. Not too worried about hitting the jump but having 1000 people watching is a bit off putting...

    Yeah, I'd been keen to meet up with the clan from the Wellington Shire.
    Maybe the 6 fingered folks from the Naki as well if they can find their way there??

    4stroke and myself will be with the Rodney MCC/ Spectrum Motorcycles crew close to sign on (rock star parking I believe). We'll also have a big white eazi up with The Kawasaki Sandpit banner attached. Chilly bin will have compulsory ice and green bottles inserted for post ride drinks.
    However we are staying in the capital of carrot country for the two nights.
    Kezzafish lets go a ridin!!!
    4 stroke will be a tad conservative on this ride I believe due to earlier circumstances.
