Motards Gathering at GPTC...

[Muzzard]

In response to discussions held with Braxton, We are having a ride to GPTC his Sunday, Rain, Hail, or Shine...
I will be coming down with bikes on board (minis) for the track day and have organised for us and this is an integral part of it, to attend there enmass to show support for Braxtons faith in us as blokes who will regularly attend track days if they were held regularly.
You have all been grizzlin for a while about the lack of off street motard venues and here it is, on your lap...

Support this weekends ride either by attending at the GPTC direct or joining in any ride (which this is about) to the GPTC.

Anybody want to kick off a meeting point and time?
(like I said I'm in the truck)

[jakestein]

If you can swing by Echuca and pick me up I am there... mini bike aswell



:P

[Wobbly]

I'll see you at the track :up:

[Flash]

Not enough notice for me, sorry. I'm pre booked. :(

[jakestein]

Murray if I get my bike to you this week can you load
it on the trailer?

Neil do you mind if I tag along with you from your house? I have NO idea where I would be heading.

Thanks guys :!:

[Wobbly]

Yep, no drama jake :up:

[jakestein]

Swwet will organise a time and other crap later :D ( This time I do a day ride to Melbourne I will have more then 1 hours sleep :shock: )

[Muzzard]

Get it here Jake and its down there mate, good as done...
Ash, are you shittin' me? Its gotta be that NASA need you to guide in the shuttle mate, yeah? :roll: ...

[Sibbo]

Ash, can I ride your bike, as you are being a girl!

[jakestein]

Send me your addy Muzz.

[dicky]

My joint is probably closest to the GPTC if anyone wants to meet there.
Can fire up the barbie if anyone is interested.

41 Templeton St Wangaratta for you Jake...

Thanks Dicky, I will see you at the track...
Maybe we could head back to your house after the days end Dicky and discuss options for the next track day amongst those who at least attend...

There is a rumour you may need to keep next Saturday free is you own a full sized motard... :shock:

[Wobbly]

Thanks Dicky, that sounds like a real plan :up:

[Wobbly]

Next saturday no good for me on the full sized front unfortunately :cry: although Sunday is ok ;)

Still be there this sunday with bike in tow of course :up:

[Flash]

Ya bastards, making me feel bad :( :cry:

[Lee1170]

Sibbo!

Are you going? Maybe we could travel together?

I wont be riding but Im keen to show my support...

[Muzzard]

For those of you riding or bringing in your full sized bikes, If you were prepared correctly, leathers etc, I think Braxton may let you get at least a couple of laps in for a demo if there are a few spectators particularly from the other smaller bike disciplines there.

Braxton is good friends with Shannon Johnson, and indicated he would no doubt be interested in riding there when the track days comes to being and would make mention of the aims here to him.

[Wobbly]

Wicked 8)

[Sibbo]

What time should people rock up to GPRT?

[GPTC]

Gates open at 10am. So all good if you guys get support then this will grow to race meets before you can click your fingers.

[dicky]

BBQ and drinks supplied at my joint after the track meet for anyone interested.

dicky.

[Sibbo]

Racing.....who wants to sponser me? I always put on a show :D

[Flash]

Not that kind of show though mate :lol:

[Wobbly]

:shock: yikes :shock:

Here comes dinner again! :lol2:

[Sibbo]

:?:

[Muzzard]

So after all the banter about the coming opportunity to impress,
How many of you are actually going to back up that constant yearn for the track access?

Turn up and we are guaranteed another look, find other more important things to do on your Sunday, and so might Braxton, instead of welcoming you at the gate for the next track day! ;)

[Wobbly]

Yup, I'll see you there tomorrow, around 10 (or 11 depending on what time we get going ;) ). Jake, you still turning up at my place? Thinking about it, you'll be going almost directly past the GPTC on the way down anyway. But I can meet you at my place too if you prefer.

The map ref for everyone: >>> CLICK HERE (http://www.whereis.com/whereis/mapping/geocodeAddress.do?advertiserId=&streetNumber=465&streetName=mcdonalds+rd&poiType=&suburb=south+morang&state=Victoria&x=29&y=12) <<<

If anyone wants to meet up at my place, probably around 9.30 would be the go....Ash, you're coming right??

[dicky]

I'll be there, leaving my joint at about 9:50 as its not far to go.
If Jake wants he can rock by my place, it's closer than Neils, but he's still almost gotta ride past the track. My place is just off the end of the ring road, so it's pretty easy to find. Map was posted earlier.
All welcome for a bbq and drink after we've finished at the track, I'll supply all the stuff.

dicky.

[Wobbly]

You're a prince among men dicky :up:

[Flash]

I think Steve will be going but I can't I will try to catch up with you guys later in the day.

[Flash]

Hey Dicky PM me your number and I'll give you a call before I come around if I am able

[dicky]

I know.
Problem is, I was aiming for King, or at least Dictator. :x

el presidente dicky.

[jakestein]

I will be at your house about 9 or so Neil

Gives us a chance to see how our bikes compare :D

[Wobbly]

No worries mate :up:

[dicky]

Some photos in the Gallery under Rides and Races, Untitled. I'll load more later.
If I can figure out how to change the folder name I will, otherwise Neil can do it for me.
It was bitterly cold.
Jake deserves a medal for coming all the way down, and he'll be needing a hot shower by the time he gets home.

dicky.

[jakestein]

Put some more photos in the album.

Sweet days riding, by that I mean 750+km on the wr and 100 or so laps of the track :D

Can I exchange the medal for a lambs wool seatcover :fart:

[Sibbo]

I hope it was a good day, but my pissweak excuse is that I locked my bike at work. For some fugged reason my swipe card did not work and could not get my bike/gear from work.

[Muzzard]

Had a good day too until the trip home, but thats another story and thread... :evil:

[Wobbly]

Oh oh ... do tell :?

[Flash]

sorry guys I didn't get home until 6pm, but it sounds like you had fun!!

[Muzzard]

Well after the weekends events, I would suggest we not bother Braxton unless the few regulars who always come are prepared to pay $1000 each for a track day :roll: ...
Thanks to the blokes who are always dedicated and reliable, Dicky, Jake and Neil, And also to Chris for coming out in support
Say no more about track days in Melbourne,
now I will I concentrate on the tracks here where we might get access with other disciplines like practice days at Wilby Speedway and you run with the dirttrack bikes.
Wilby has sealed corners and compressed clay straights. We have a few motards out there that do not have internet access up here still and are reliant on me for news etc.. but would regularly post and attend events like Sam. Word is there are 3 being put together here now in sheds for road use. One Yamaha, a KTM 2 stroke and I'm not sure of the other believe an XR400, so we could see a reasonable turnout just from the Wangaratta community soon to local dirttrack races.

Short term plan,
Find yourself an industrial estate and go your hardest, or every day you go to work ride it like you stole it...

[jakestein]

The 'Go sick on way to work' gets me in trouble.

:(

[Flash]

Find yourself an industrial estate and go your hardest, or every day you go to work ride it like you stole it...

Already do!!
That's why my work wont insure me!!


P.S. I would have been there but I need more than a few days notice some times!!!

[Wobbly]

Come on Ash! We've just decided to go for a ride - we're off in 20 minutes. You ready yet??? :)

[Muzzard]

:rofl: Jeez, I could be ready and almost there in 20 minutes Neil...
