Six riders turned up by the Bakehouse in Kumeu, where Chris and Peter Birch were already waiting for us. I'l just post a whole bunch of photos right now, and might add some more words later.To me it looked like everybody was having a good time. Chris and his dad were excellent teachers and we had picked the perfect day for it.

Chris demonstrating the correct standing position. I won't go into details, as you should have been there :-).
A useful little hill during the first training session. We soon took it on sideways. On the way down the seat would hit you on the arse, it was short but steep.
Malcolm crossing the obstacle with style. But it looks like there is something missing :-). He just returned from helping someone
Soon we were into the fun stuff, far away from civilization on a test track known only to few insiders :-).
Tony showing us how it's done!
Or is he? 
It's hot work.
Chris sending us up a hill.
It's a lot steeper than it looks.
A lot steeper! 
I really enjoyed the day out. It was a good opportunity to practice stuff in a safe environment. Since I did have the only camera in action and since I am pretty quick picking up my bike, I can safely tell you that it never happened. I do have a knack for picking the best rut lines, great for parking an airhead.Finally a word on tyres. Genki got through most of it on worn Tourance tyres on his low F650GS. However, he would be the first to admit that he won't try that again. Post count: 2134Post count: 2134Post count: 3Post count: 2134Post count: 3Post count: 2134Post count: 2134
