I'll be there on a very dirty neon blue (unless I wangle time off on Sat to clean her up). Will be heading down Sun morning with a Harley riding mate, so say hello if you see us and I'll do the same...

Another great GP weekend has come and gone.

Rode down with Sparti on Saturday morning, via Cranbourne, where about 3000 bikes gathered (I think) for a group ride to the island, about 80km away. We went to check the festivities prior to the ride. We left before the group. Riding in a group that big can be scary not to mention that you don't want to arrive at the track at the same time as 3000 others, all trying to buy tickets etc. at the same time.

This is a small section of the crowd prior to departure





A very tasty rocket



Sparti talking to a fellow speedy rider in the crowd



My bike (black) and Sparti's before we left



And now the gratuitous shots of scantily dressed girls



Don't know who this loser is but he seems to be enjoying himself.......actually they came flocking around when they found out that I had a black speed trip....., (and no, Corners, they are not my sisters, or even my "nieces")



This girl has a great mind......no, really!

I got a little damp up at Lukey Heights, it was a great weekend. Took the soft option and flew in from Perth. Met a guy in the "Isle of Wight" on Fri who also had an S3, conversation a little difficult though as we had both been hitting the turps hard. You always meet the nicest people at PI though.

well leggy, 1st off congrats on the pic with the beautiful ladies! You could have just sent that $ to cheap that you had to pay those ladies to pose with ya in that pic! As you will see, the biggest mistake that ya made, was letting cheap get a hold of a pic of ya! :-D Looks like a great time, maybe one day, I can get over there and hang with the Legman and the great Sparticus! :-D Nice pics!


btw, are you sure Tracker is older than you??? :wink: :-D
