Canterbury Have a Go Day, Ruapuna 14 Feb

**gammaguy** · 14th February 2009, 19:30

I wonder how many of you were at the track today,i saw a few KB ers(sorry if i didnt get to say hi to everyone!)

I had a super day,the weather was a bit patchy at first but turned out quite sunny and warm.

I had a ball on the RG,i went in the A class cos i like passing wherever i feel like it(and being passed too lol )

The standard of riding in my class was high,everyone rode fast but with respect for others.

I felt a dam sight safer on the track today than i do on the road thats for sure.The way things are these days its the only way i get to ride the RG the way nature intended-FAST.

i thorougly recommend everyone who thinks they can improve their skills(and thats all of us IMHO)to "have a go"at the next trackday.

We are the envy of people from overseas,it cost me $60 entry today.some guys i know in the UK and US pay a hell of a lot more than that.

Get out there!

was glad my mate who was testing his bike for the Sound of Thunder told me about it and got me out there even tho I turned up late and missed the first round but did the rest for the day...

Helen why were you riding the wrong way down the dummy grid in the last???

I was there on my bucket. First time I'd ridden it and I had a ball. I reckon I improved by miles over the day. Really looking forward to getting out there again!!
