    Top day , we did a couple more laps before they closed the track, followed by a few rounds of locally-brewed refreshments at the Belgrove Inn.

    I shoulda done a lap on the mighty Honda. Reckon I coulda got it a long way up the second A-grade section on the steep hill... or at least had a heckuva lotta fun trying.

    That's not an MT21. It has ceased to be, expired, gone on to meet its maker, its bleedin demised, it is no more, its kicked the bucket, its shuffled off its mortal coil, its metabolic processes are a matter of interest only to historians, it's fucking snuffed it, it's an ex-MT21!!

    Apologies to Python, M.

    The first pic disapeared so here it is.

    bloody brilliant day, the first lap was a wee bit slippery, but after that it was fantastic (mostly). had one off where I took the arrow too literally and somehow went between these trees.
    Note Topo almost doubling over with laughter as he picks up the wreckage of my bike from around ensuing area like a kid on an easter egg hunt.
    Also note the bark missing from the tree.
    Again brilliant day and i wanna do another one. Those Swedish bikes are looking more appealing by the day.

    Yeah it was a bit slippery on the first lap
    The second lap was sooooo much more fun.
    The third lap shook my arms/wrists to pieces on the CT125.
    The fourth lap I followed Jatz around getting footage of hom washing/drying/jumping the CT.

    I prefer the XR250 for this sort of ride but it's a good way of finding out what your bike can actually do.
