Ye Right! If its wet but not poaring down I,m game for a ride but not on the country roads as there's heaps of crap on the roads due to verge side grazing and it will be slipery as heck.

In the spring? Let me know what you are booked in for and I will try and get along. Time to do it again. You over estimate my riding Dave. Been a while since I thrashed a bike let alone on the track. But yep lets get a track day sorted. When is the next Zuki one?

Was a great ride from them for sure. I recon it is going to rock at Philip Island this year. Might have to pick a rider to cheer for while sitting in the stands. Maybe "go Rossi" Wonder what the 500 ozy supporters will think of that.

Looks shit for Saturday.
I've pretty well given up any biking ideas for the day.
Have to go get a few loads of hay so if it does fine up, theres a chance I wont make it.
Dammit.

But I have next week off so will definately look to ride somewhere for a day maybe. Anyone else got spare time next week?

For a pair of Susuki riders wanting to ride like Rossi and Stoner you got to be dreemin

You'll have to trade in the old girls and get something like a Duke or Yamaha, mind you Hopie's comeing in about No 5 these days but trying hard.

When the sun comes out the shit hits the fan, I'll be buisy as, wet weather has forced me to do a lot of inside jobs but have a lot of trenching to do when it gets fine again. I would have loved to go for a ride to Palmie to have a look at some gear.Never mind hears hoping its fine.

True but it is all perception. See Dave and I use to have a ball on the track. We went for it ride after ride on the track and we would usually stay very close to each other. It made for a great day on the track. I can't speak for Dave but for me they were great days out on the track duelling for track place. In my mind it was as good as watching the top bikes on the track. Not for the spectators but for me it was the bomb. Problem now, is Dave has kept it up and I haven't. He has race rubber and I do not. I dropped the bike last time on the track and he has not. So you see BigG he has the advantage but I recon it will be fun to chase and try. Suzuki Yamaha go carts V8's all the same. just thrash it and get the blood full of adrenalin.

Mind you doin it on a Zuki is the cream on the cake.

You could have one too. All you have to do is find a shed to park the thunder ace in and go get one.

Ok Ok I get the drift, we use to do that a lot, raceing from one town to another flat out on the old triumph, we didnt have track days to dice with mates, I do have to agree its awesome raceing with somebody of similar abilities. These days I aint got the nerve to push it, cos I'm a bit wiser I think.
Yes I could have one, whitetrash has his one

for sale.

Ye I no he's very quick and you must be too Dave, I like watching good riders dice it out. I watched a guy on a imported 400 Yamaha giving blokes on 600's at Manfeild a real good run for their money he would catch them up on the twisty's but loose ground on the straights but what briliant riding. Hard to do on the road as we only have half of it to play with.
