Sat 13th Dec TT

[riffler]

I may well be extreamly slow on what looks like a very tight track,
but I think i'd like to try this.
Do i need to book in advance, and do you guys normally load bikes into a trailor or ride there?

I'm in coburg/brunswick. Think i might just ride there.

[Muzzard]

Some trailer them after removing lighting etc,
Some ride them in.
Personal preference there Riff.

Roll up @ 10 am and if there is no other bikes there as such to show you the ropes,
Slip upstairs and pay the TT Staff $35 for the day, sign the TT paperwork / indemnity and ride your heart out.
Its shared sessions with private karts as well as the hire karts,
Usually about 20 minutes about.
Cheers and hope to see you there soon ;)

[MarkeeMark]

I'll be there Riffler, so will a few guys from up Bendigo way!

[riffler]

[MarkeeMark]

Sweet Kyle should be a good little crew of about 10 or so.

[Fazio]

as long as its not wet, im in for sure

[MarkeeMark]

I'll play it by ear too Alex. If it's bucketing down I'll stay home but if it's just showers I'll be heading out.

[Muzzard]

Yeah it looks a bit touch and go from the 7 day forecast.
It will be updated of course but it looks for the worse if anything.
I was gonna head down but will suss it Saturday at 6am now as well ...

[BoneGraft]

I'll be out for a look and a Howdy, weather permitting. Still waiting on gear to cut some laps....

[riffler]

Does look like it could be wet.
you never never know with forecasts though might improve.

Finger crossed its just some showers.

[MarkeeMark]

If it turns out to be just isolated showers and wind, in my experience that means at least a few dry runs.
The last dealer it was supposed to shower as well and it was sunny for most of the arvo, Signor Wobbly even got sunburnt LOL

[ben100]

[ZuluFoot]

[Wobbly]

I _do_ get burned under an electric lamp though...

[Flash]

if I can get my bike ready in time i'll see ya's there.

:shock: :shock: I'll have to try and come along after work to catch up!!

[ZuluFoot]

Well bikes is back in Tard trim :D just need to bleed the brake and put the catch can back on and she's ready to go I think.

Now all that's stopping me is the weather :?

[Daws]

[Muzzard]

[Muzzard]

Travelling down might be out for me too Riff,
Its a long way to be rained off and its not the first time either unfortunately.
It will get better for sure,
Maybe just postpone it a week or ...
Look at the forecast for midweek and have a cheap evening session under lights if I can arrange it ;)

[Muzzard]

I got no water wheels so I wont be coming.
Next one will most likely be the 27th mate,
The forecast doesnt look too favorable throughout the week and into next weekend as it is.

There is always next time...

[SMC690]

I'm out. Too wet.
If I want to crash and hurt myself I might as well keep the bike out of the formula and just sit here on the couch where it's nice & warm and rub my elbows, knees and hips with the potato peeler.

[Fazio]
