$110 for the day + $25 for a licence.

no real bike prep needed, just as you you ride on the road except for take your mirrors off and either tape up your lights / Blinkers or take them off as well.

You will need to wear leathers though did hear you can ride in dragons/ jacket in the slow group. Would have to check that with the track though.

Sent a msg to a couple other guys not on here about the day so we might end up with a couple more.
I also think there might be a couple othere supermoto riders just heading out for a look as well.

I got a feeling Owen might be thinking about heading out for a ride.

Yeah im keen!
Any chance you can hook me up with a new sprocket Stretch so i can change my gearing. I need some more top end. Not that i have a speedo but i would say top speed at the moment is around 120kmhr so i would want some more for mallala i would think.

Ok. The only other bike i changed sprockets on was my speed triple and it certainly wasnt written on them. Will have a look and get back to you.

How hard is it to count sprocket teeth? Is there something I've been doing wrong? :lol2:

Well i have never had a prblem counting the teeth on a front sprocket but alway run into trouble on the rear.
I get to 20, run out of fingers and toes and lose count.

Well had a blast today! I crashed on the 3rd round with a low side, but managed to jump back on and ride off before any of the marshalls took notice :D

I also had to laugh when watching the faster group go round i overheard a sportsbike rider in reference to stretch and his mate (sorry forgot your name) "they think they are good because they can slide the rear, why dont they try gripping, thats waaaay harder, look how much speed they lose in the corners by doing that" :lol:
