19 October, Battle of the Buckets NI assault: Pip Pip Tally Ho, old chaps

[husaberg]

As usual the Might GN performed faultlessly,beating up on a reasonable number of effeminate FXR riding poofters over the course of 55minutes + 1 lap

Gav pulled out and pretended he'd broken a cam chain rather than get lapped by the Mighty GN,Yow ling also broke his bike and then threw it on the ground in first practice rather than go up against it on his own bike in the main event, F5Dave also kept pulling out of the races for the same reason

How many liters does the Peanut tank hold?

Enough to do a lot more than that

I forgot, Husaberk didn't even front up on a bike cause he knew the Mighty GN would smash him to

I remember the bet as being for Greymouth (year to be determined)is the GN still road legal

Smash......... oh you chopper boys are funny (and probably right)
loved you in mask btw

[F5 Dave]

Yeah matt rode well and I didn't have an answer. It's about 3 in the morning and I'd do anything for some voltarin to stop my shoulder muscles aching. Can't sleep.

So Malcolm, next year, mission down in the transit with two buckets and two road bikes, do the BOB, hack around on the road bikes on the west coast for a week then hit the Greymouth street race? Your Mrs seems OK with it.

Wouldn't bother me. I can imagine the clean house and quiet now.....

Oh yeah,if you do a race meeting in the wet always remember to take your leathers out of your gear bag and hang them up, this is what was in my gearbag when I opened it after getting to the track at BOB

BOB 2013 the Ruapuna B track has got to be the best small bike track in the Country and the BOB combined with the Greymouth street race next weekend would have to be the premier meetings of the year,.



The best food I have seen at any race track.



A big thanks to Yow Ling for letting me ride Purple Death in the pre 89 and Development class, fast technical track and at the end of the day I was glad to be able to hand it back in one piece.



I was not that fast but I did get to see some excellent riding close up, like when Scout came past on her RS125 and dived between two big 4-Strokes as they peeled of for the Fulton Hogan corner.



I never thought I would say this, but I have become a paid up member of the GN125 fan club. Great bike, reputedly, a little down on power compared to the CBR150 that won but the GN is the sort of bike I like. Home made, fast, handles, well developed engine with some interesting ideas and in the race it went the distance. Kick gave me one of his spare clutches which I intend using in my new Beast Engine.



There were a lot of interesting bikes there like this early Ariel Square Four, that looks like it gets ridden regularly.
