I am not a miracle worker.

[Owl]

Yes. But just remember that aeroplanes DON'T have a reserve switch

Reserve chute is all you need!

Foggy night to be harrased by a twat in a skyline on the track. Fucking dick weeds driving like they own the road, in the stupid fog.

Yeah, I am not about to push my limit or go near my bikes limit on the road to "beat" a whale skyline being poorly driven Especially when I can't see oncoming damp patches on the track, which we all know tend to linger on foggy days. Put it on the real track and we shall see [I will get my arse handed to me ]

one of the best runs we had over the track was a V8 Vs IL4 Vs IL3 Vs V twin. It was mint as no one embarassed themselves and the kid in the car had a huge smile as some front tread saving was exercised.

Its a great road but has to be watched carefully. 86 and I had an awesome run over it the other day at 99km/hr and coming back 20 minutes later after a shower of rain the bikes were all over the place and we didnt manage much more than 70. Chalk and cheese conditions in a very small space of time.

It gets dodgy very quickly over that great road I absolutely love getting a good run over there, when I was commuting to palmy it was absolutely awesome But with my poo front rubber I can't get a good fast run. Shame to see a few dirty holes in the road on a nice corner up from the look out.

I LOVE that road, despite having written off one bike, putting myself in hospital, and then enduring a painful recovery. It must be good eh

+1 for the Track, but I still prefer the Saddle Rd and V.Hill.

the saddle is one of my all time favourites. Pretty much because it is right on my doorstep. got about 200000 stories of slides on it though. Need to keep the wits about ya.

Vhill is iconic but is over a little too soon.

The saddle is brilliant

I have been told it is best avoiding tank slappers. My pelvis told me when it broke on the fence

[86GSXR]

You were told right lol. Wish my bike had heard that as well Broken bits are no fun It's fun when they heal though. Apiti loop has to be an all time favourite!

Yeah no kidding lol I was going far to fast for some corrugations on my ole bros650 and slap slap highside, learn to fly, splat ouch basically. Put a big dent in the tank with my wrist and decided to put my face through the instrument cluster before flying/rag dolling.
