I was the tassled tit on the VFR in the slow group that got in everyone's way. And it's taken me more courage than a sidecar monkey needs to admit that online so please don't hold it against me. Quasi is helping me out there though, thank goodness.

Anyway, was shocked to hear about Sallo's off but glad to see she was relatively OK. Bike looked a mess, but the photographer got an awesome photo of her and the bike sliding off the track.

And being a blundering fool I apologise if I held you up out there.

hey matey, you were doing great out there!! sorry i didn't time you ..heheheh....
and the tassels, i personaly think they make you.

hope we see you out there again!!!
is Quassi putting tassels on the new one for you??

She has spent quite a bit of time as a pillion on a rocket ship but was a little nervous about taking over the controls. Now she is loving it and had an awesome day yesterday. Shame I wasn't there to see it. I know she is very proud of how small the chicken strips are on her tyres.

If you have shots of her can you pm me so I can give you an email address. She is trying to get a hold of any shots that have her in them.

Done, hope the photos got through okay. Good on her for having a go, she was a bit wary at first but once she got out there she did seem to be enjoying herself.

Thanks for the pics - I really appreciated that as I haven't seen any of me on Urban Magpie yet.

And I'd like to also say thanks for the encouragement, if it hadn't been for you and the other lady at registration I think I would have just spent the day watching.

To all the guys and gals that I held up "SORRY" hopefully I'll do better next time.

Ah, that was you! A mate of mine had her GPX250 delivered today and I took great delight in telling her that there had been one at the track day!

Her new bike is red, with flames up the side. I kid you not!

Her bike must be the opposite colours to mine - if she's Wellington based I'll keep an eye out and say Hi if I see her on the road. She'll love it - I know I love mine.

Great picture.

Watching you do those burn outs was cracking me up.

I half expected you to pick it up and run down the drag strip with the bike under your arm!
Good to see you get out there Gunner and entertain the small crowd.

Hi MD,
Heard you come back but never got a chance to catch up. It sounds like you had a good day and showed everyone what the beemer is capable of.
