we're a wee bit slow, i think we got to whangarei @ about 2:30?

Forgot whose but it was a blue R6 that had a wee off, just enough to disable it from riding (hole in lhs engine cover), came off on a RH corner that has a few problems on peak rd, all good apart from that

whada slow guy ehab! and there were people willing to give ya some $$ for petrol!

p.s. dont know what happened to macstar after whangarei? lost him at bk!

Thanks guys, was a great and very entertaining day out, can not remember when I have giggled so much in ages.

lol, at 12:30 i was looking for a bk (and couldn't find it) in whangarei!

i've figured it out that my average speed was around 120KPH

all up i spent $30 on gas, 20km per litre

it's a shame my speedo is broken, but on the upside it meant the speed limiter couldn't kick in at 180, and my odo isn't turning either

that shud come in handy when selling her , " honest man, its only done 30,000k's"....muahahaha
