Yes Masso, ever seen a track bike with lights on the bars?

You'll keep Metro.

Ah - I turn up to the track most times with lights.  You see, real hard track men can ride to the track, race and then ride home from the track. 
Well, no merger so far....

Seen one of them around lately? It couldnt be you, as you havent been to track racing for a while.

Any luck with that form BTW?

I reckon the race nights need the extra people on the infield to keep it running smoothly. Hillbilly has learnt how full on it is doing some of the work there and I have appreciated his efforts greatly..

The infield crew are doing a great job running the Wednesday program.

We all look forward to the day Robbo returns as a rider - Junior's talent must come from somewhere, and while we all suspect it may be Junior's mother


This rider would be keen to know if indeed junior's talent comes from his mother.  I would love to race against another woman who is not young enough to be my daughter.  This is my fourth season on the Newie track and only one other mother has raced there occasionally, and she is the only female who doesn't blitz me on the track like a F1 versus a T model Ford/

Yep - form is improving nicely.  All races that I have not punctured in of late I have been at the pointy end at the finish, and happy with outcome and effort. Not yet good enough to give it a point worthy go, as I am not yet fit enough for a return to B grade, but am enjoying racing once again.

If work becomes slightly less insane this week I may get to the track this Tuesday or Wednesday evening.

Commuter,

You may be correct - there has to be a first time!

Key,

Impressive flying 200 times at training. More impressed with how smooth your riding on the track is - I have much to learn. It is a Nissan GTR v a clapped out Kingswood Ute.

To Metro commuter & Commuter

You too need to get a room because this Bromance is starting to sound a little serious.

Commuter you need to get a track bike and have a go because we need some more light(not your weight) humour .  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
keep it rubber side down
