I could not go before as I did not have the riding kit. Its been a slow buildup.

Its done- I have paid and sent in the form- now I am counting the days...

You'll have a ball R Sole. and get some good assistance.

I notice in the other thread you were concerned about moving around or what group. Graham recommended group two because of the speeds you will get down the straights and in group one we get smaller bikes (even had a couple of fast scooters last time). But having said that we keep an eye on everyone and often move people up or down so that they get the most out of their day and the instruction, which varies according to group level.

Look forward to seeing you out there.. hopefully we will see you on the weekend and ATNR rides as well.

I'm still keen, but I think the weather will be shit. Will have to wait till tomorrow morning.

Checked out some forecasts - looks cloudy in the morning but clearing, no rain predicted. Should be okay!

Just me on the ride today - but that was good also. Worked through some things in my head to do with cornering.

Just been to http://www.bikesbbqblues.co.nz/. I would say there were many hundreds of bikes parked there. Go on down if you haven't yet!

I was there just before 10am, and left at 10:15am.

Shame we missed....must be these dodgey gixxer clocks. Sounds like you had a good ride though. Didn't happen to come across a bar end weight at the servo did you?
