| hi Rudi here, Ive been riding with hrca for almost a year now. I loved it cos I got to see similar bike as mine and other Honda that id like to have one day. I only ride weekends (or occasional quick trip to MCAS during lunch). Ive been riding for 7yrs with occasional track days, around 3-4x a year. The trackday with HRCA is particularly good as you can have a free session on their CBR600RR and NEW Fireblade fleet ($2000 Excess if youre unfortunate enough to crash it). Ive meet some ppl with the same interest & pace from hrca, then we do our own smaller group rides with riders who live nearby. Then it branched out to track days and even buying bike/riding gear in a group So, few of us are doing E-Creek trackday on Satdy 30th Aug(check weather first). Please register at www.nswrats.com for group discount of $175 incl.lunch (instead of $199) or directly to them at http://www.easterncreekridedays.com.au.Dont wanna risk your bike? then hire one of their GSXR-600. Spectators & firstimers welcome too! | |

| would you consider swapping your cruiser with mine on this trip? My bike will kill my back on long-distance trips; or end up with a crack-doctor (physiotherapist). But I will make HRCA Batemans Bay overnite as day ride as the roads down there is nice if there isnt much traffic. thanks. | |

| Lol. As much as I am tempted to swap, I like my comfort as does my back.

| nothing wrong with cruisers on track, all bikes welcome. I'll take mine if I have one! Its all about learning to ride & enjoying your bike at higher speed than the road speed. Few ppl are just intimidated with the presence of a mighty cruiser | |

Few ppl are just intimidated with the presence of a mighty cruiser i've never seem a cruiser in op or Ec rudi. have u? "I have seen one at EC, OP layout maynot be suitable for cruisers if you ride it hard." WTH is this forum doing? I didn't write this. Rudi are you playing up with my posts?

I posted 3 track events in december: >> EASTERN-CREEK - 7th December with the HRCA, where you can test ride the new Fireblade & CBR600RR for free. I think this is the best trackday event. >> ORAN PARK 13th Dec - halfday or fullday - im going there and im doing the group booking. >> EASTERN-CREEK 14th Dec - Fullday, organised by the Helmet Warehouse - $175 incl Lunch. Must book fairly soon with the Helmet Warehouse one. I'll post one in the Event. | |
