No worries Hoony there will be more track for us to use, After my effort the other day i need all the track i can get. I've been playing with my suspension settings and i think i got the back sorted out and the forks were good so i am ready to go.

I wasnt sure if they could co exist and to be honest i couldnt afford one it,s on my wish list but it will have to wait for Now. I'm sure there would be others who might want One?

How did day 2 go Hilly? did you nail the block passes and jumps Drills. and what was the outcome with the YZ400E front wheel? i expect a full report on Thursday if you make it to the club, if not fill me in here so those Blokes that squibbed it can read what they missed.  ;)

i pulled up a bit sore in the lower back today but made the trip to Whittlesea for a day out with my soon to be 3 Y/O daughter, she loved the toboggan (yeah ok, so did i).

Awesome another big day, Young Sid laid a good block on me and i got the rubber still on my fork leg. We covered correct position on the bike and this made a huge difference to getting around the track, Jumps. We ending up jumping the big tabletop on the back straight in reverse direction and i,m very happy with how much i improved ,everyone improved outa site well worth the time and money . I fixed the YZ last night it had moved the axle out  and come loose and didnt miss a beat today i will be going next year .
