 OK where were you lot?
  I had a fun day anyhow, along with the rest of a pretty good roll-up.
 Only two sliders turned up though, me and Col Laws, so first up I said to Col 'it looks as though between us, we should end up with 1st and a 2nd'.
 The track was good but very slick, and a good time was had by all.
 My RT1 had its first outing for 3 or so years and after getting very hot at the start line waiting for the water truck to do its bit the engine suddenly stopped turning 'round coming into turn 1 and sent me sliding into the corner at a fairly fast rate on my bum. However it was very neatly executed even if I say so, with no bent levers, handlebars, or such and only minor skin missing of my 'padded area'. My slider was going well but Col was going better.
 After the RT1 cooled down it went fine, had a bit of trouble changing gear with the wrong pedal [silly thing is on the left]
 Hope to see some of you at Penrith clubs AGM on wednesday [club paceway 7:30]  cheers pancho.

Yeah, I was doing that evil 4 letter thing.
I'll be there in July testing a new engine before Brizzy.
Sorry Wal.

Thanks Jim, some people say that I don't even know what day it is but they're wrong.
It's the month that I have trouble with.
I meant to say May.
I've been working 7 days a week lately and I'm losing all sense of time.
I'll be well and truly ready for some " ME " time when June finally gets here.

i fired up the tt500 staracer today started 3rd kick not bad since it wasnt run since august 2010.those methenol motors sure are good things.
its faily heavy compairedto my cr250 but i will get used to it.not too sure about the lh peg its up faily high as the only turn left in the usa and i supose dont change gear all that much.52 can tell us all about it when he gets back.might see about lowering it but will make evey thing so it can bolt back as std.
my second outing for this year wii be the 9th july practise day.should have yz125x tt500 and cz400 to test out for the pre 75 pre 85 weekend.

 Sorry to hear you have back probs Jim. Look after yourself.
 The tt 500 sounds like an interesting device, I'm keen to see it perform.
 Meanwhile Steve is keeping OZ in front, what with these long hours! Just remember you Must have home time and play time!
 cheers pancho.
