Never a bad idea to do some braking practice, especially after the holidays where the mind tends to relax

plus i need to suss out wtf is going on with my front brake too, heheh

Yeah, i'm with the boys on that one.

Can never get enough emergency braking down.

Especially mid-corner high speed emergency braking while on the rear wheel.

A very valid point. Yes I think a run of Emergency braking will do fine. We may have a few 'real' Learners come along tomorrow night (Ive had a few enquires) who would really benefit learning those skills.

Payment of beer excepted at all Bar Africas.

Just kidding, will see how we go for time/daylight/numbers/boredom factor etc... Cant see why not at the end of the night.

**Qkchk:Me** · 13th January 2009, 20:38

Congratulations mate!

How'd you trick her into it aye?

And EJ.. you're still in Auckland?! You've dragged this whole leaving business out a bit haven't you! Haha, I kid. Will be good to see you tonight.

See all you folks tonight, and to the new people.

Introduce yourselves and don't be afraid to say what you know, what you don't know and what you want to learn. We're all a bit thick and oblivious to notice sometimes..
