Sure as hell cant wait to get another bike though, and something better than the current loaner XR250R lol

Ya might just keep riding the dirt bike it keeps you in touch with two wheels

Great ride to Fielding and back today. A bit cold on the ride but weather not bad at all at the track. Rode back with Robertydog, BigG and GMcC. Dog and I called in to see the invalid (aka Dooly) on the way home. He just looks his usual silly self

. Didnt want to leave mind yu as the fire was cranked up real nice

**crazyhorse** · 21st June 2009, 20:43

sounds like a good day for all. We did a short ride to Patangatah and back. Roads were nice and dry, bit breezy, but not cold nor wet - yahoo. Makes a change.

Good to hear Dooly is much better, maybe it was just an excuse to not leave the warm fire......

**robertydog** · 21st June 2009, 20:59

Yep good day today. Thanks George and Gary for inviting me to tag along. Dale nice of you to turn up. Made for a good ride home.
I still reckon Dooly suffering from that knock on the nogin. Still appeared to be not quite there i reckon.
Good days racing at manfield today and it was good to see the sun over there. And Steve the SV needs a clean.

Far out young Gareth did well 1st yesterday and in his second race that we saw nobody near him 1st again.

**Gixxer 4 ever** · 21st June 2009, 21:32

Yep home safe thanks. Have 1,800 km on the SV now so gave it a bit of a fang in places on the way home.

What a nice bike to ride and as W has always said “ they have fantastic lights on em". Better than some cars.

Yep two wins for Garry. They cancelled the second race today, race 3, at 4pm. Yep we are pissed off but that’s another story. Time to reply to the comments below and then sleep. Thanks for comin down you guys. Nice to see you John and Janet Was great to see you. Cheers Steve

Yea it looks like my AG200. Sure is dirty. Might have to give W back the cans before I damage them with the mud. A bit embarrassed to own the bike today. It really did look very unloved. Specially as it was next to the R1 that the whole crowd wanted to look at.
