    Found I can get to 60kph today - If I lie down to minimise wind resistance. Get a few strange looks as I "fly" past people in this position on the two lane bits. Scooters aren't suppose to got that fast - right?

    Got a chaley in bits in the shed. Its been off road plenty too but on slick road tyres. One say I'll get some bits/a new engine and put it back together. A CT 90/110 engine would be the way to go I recon

    Weather is supposed to be better in Hanmer on Saturday (tomorrow), cold, cloudy, but no rain for the most part.
    I can do this ride (although the van has sprung a leak but I think it'll make it there and back ok with bottled water in the back just incase) or I can do the Sunday Coleridge ride, but I cant afford time or cash to do both and I haven't done any video work etc for 4 or 5 weeks so should stay home do some of that anyway.

    What say you all??

    Been feeling a bit similar to the weather this week which is why i didn't post for this weekend. Weather is supposed to turn shitty for the Coleridge ride on sunday. I'm ok for the next few weekends for a Hanmer and what say a lap of Lees valley a couple a weeks after that.
