Now this could be an interesting week on the road in April
SUN - - 6 -- ORAN
THUR --10 -- WAKEFIELD
FRI -- 11 -- BROADFORD
SAT -- 12-- EASTERN CREEK

I will be going to Sydney in May to pick up bike parts so it will be sat 10 and do eastern creek or sat 31 and do Oran Park ( my prefered track ) . any takers let me know or forever sit at home and say I should have done it

OK, I'm in for OP on 31 May. Who's running it?

G'day Mark , CHAMPION'S are running the day with a cost of 130.00 , I may still have a credit from a cancelled day at Calder ( rain ) so I will look into that , anyone else want-a play

This makes three ....and Sunday is Eastern Creek

I'm BOOKED in to middle group ,sounds like they only run 3 groups , less time between sessions, with the option to change so maybe Mark can coach us up in speed and into fast group , less bikes more open track, I will have to find and fit my camera stuff for the occasion, any other starters

I've just booked in for Oran. They're running 4 groups that day and i'm booked in for the 3rd (medium slow)
See you there.

Ok, so lets back-track a bit........(and thanks Max for getting us back in action )

We have;

Triton, Scott, Kev, Bob, John, and Myself,

I've called Champions and got myself booked into the same group as Scott, Kev and Bob (group 3, slow medium)

Looking fwd to it!

Now all I need is a new rear tyre, rear brake rotor (wavy coming from chaingang) and perhaps some advice on the day for setting up my rear suspension, static sag etc.

What ever you do, don't get advice from JohnM about tying down you bike

It'll be great to see you Nick. How's the PiaM and the rugrat....~9 months now, should be getting mobile?

I'll be riding to the track this time and if i keep my cool and the bike does it's bit - I'll be riding home too.

It was you that helped me trailer my bike last time and it made it home in one piece so thanks for that. I look fwd to hearing all about Johns antics on the day.

The pillion and pannier passengers are all fine and healthy. Ella is 6 months old now and not quite crawling but gives the kitchen floor a good buff as she drags her self around.

In the immortal words of Darryl Kerrigan: Tell him he's dreaming!

As for the actual track day, i have a couple of (possibly dumb) questions:
1. Do we have a collective pit garage this time? Are there any general supplies needed- i can bring an esky with soft drinks (and proper ones for after).
2. I assume it's self-catering? Is there take away available?

cheers
