Being a trackday virgin I reckon I am allowed to wax lyrical just this one time

Could barely sleep friday night cause I was sooooo excited and even beat the 4:40am alarm. Met GSVR at the Gull and loaded the blue beast up, it knew something exciting was in store, packrac off, cowling on and an early start usually means some fun to be had

The rain on the way up never really materialised but being in the van meant I could doze and try and keep the adrenaline under control.

From the moment I walked up to pre-registration and Peter recognised my name to following other participants along the side of lake Taupo on the way home it was a fantastic experience. This was my birthday pressie to myself and one of the top ten ever. Credit card meltdown and a track bike are on the horizon

I was blown away by the help and support I recieved from all and sundry. I don't need to tell anybody how helpful and fun all from MotoTT were. I never expected the level of personal training that I got both on and off the track. Special thanks to Peter and all the 'liners' for letting me follow them ,be followed and quiz them on return to the pits

Even giving advice on tyre pressures and suspension and a chat by the map about the double apex.

I met lots of new friends, caught up with a few I haven't seen for a while and the weather was kind to us too, what more could I ask. Thanks to all in group 4 for good overtaking, some nice lines to follow and a great atmosphere on the track and dummy grid. Fun to meet Donna from Taurmanui another 'virgin' on her CB1000R, see you out there again soon I hope

From the girl on the coffee cart who was enthusiastic and encouraging to another girl who came to say bye to Sinfull and took the time to tell me she thought I had improved over the day. These epitomised the atmosphere of all at Taupo on saturday.

I am hooked

Great day, great people and bxxxdy great fun. Can't wait til the next time.

: Anybody who hasn't given it a go should get booked up soon.
