So, after a momentary attack of guilt, I finally got to go. Rode up to Heathcote and met the Netriders.I am lying. I met Bron...again. We had seen each other on another ride and both of us could'nt quite figure out when, but she was on a red 250 Kawasaki and looked worried. Perhaps it was because she had just seen me loosing my footing at the pump and had it not been for a leather clad hero, who rushed to my aid, I may have dropped the bike most awkwardly. Full tank and bag did not make it any easier to regain that prescious balance...but if nothing else, it was a heart starter...

Yes, she looked worried, but I quickly realised why that was... the SIZE of those bikes!!! 1400 something cc's!!!!! So we did the only thing left to do...cut 'em loose...Both Bron and I called out: DON"T WAIT FOR US!!! as they sprinted off. To their credit, one of them marked the next two turn-off's, but then I waved him on and when we finally arrived at Stanwell Tops, we did not recognise them amongst the crowd... we guessed that they had been and gone.

Bronwyn is also going on the 'GRO Bathurst or Bust' weekend away and we are both looking forward to it. It seems our biggest problem is the luggage arrangement. Mine in particular, because I have never been one for a luggage rack and side cases. In my opinion they are dangerous in an accident and anyway, it looks a bit like pulling a caravan with a maserati!

In the hurry to get out of the garage this morning I forgot all about my new visor and those knee sliders, but I tried to shift the weight around a bit more on this particular ride, which felt very good, very safe, after all, the bike does not lean as hard and the grip is much more solid... must practice... must practice... must practice... must practice. Bathurst will be the next ride I get to go on, unless I'll ride to DeNiros. We'll keep you posted!
