    10th/11th August Stay Upright

    Who's going to EC this day? It will be my first day back on the track in almost 3 years, on a completely new (to me) bike. So I'll be scooting around probably having a terrible time in yellow group.

  2. #2
    I'm heading out, looking forward to it.

  3. #3
    I think there are a few on here that are planning on going. I'm about 80% in

    Save me some space 🤗

    I've got about 5 hours riding time in the past 3 years, so I dunno how long it will take me to get booted out of yellow. Are they pretty strict on faster riders being in slower groups? And is it fairly easy to change groups on the day?

    Also, how much does a tyre change (or rotation) at the track cost these days?

    There are heaps of spots left in every class so it won't be too hard to move up.

    Tyre change I don't know how much they are, maybe see marshy for new tyres before the day.

    Tyre change, loose wheel, is $15 I think? Rotation, if you mean flip them? Nup, they won't have a bar of it.

    Well technically flip them. It's because the front wet tyre I have has been installed backwards... Hahah. I'm sure they will fix that.

    Andre is chasing confo of garages - 'If you have booked a garage for next week’s ride days are you able to confirm with me your group name and garage allocation number please as my file has been corrupted and can’t open the file. If you can reply to this email and advise me ASAP I will repopulate the bookings for you allocated ride day. Sorry for any inconvenience caused and we will see you at the track.'

    I've told him Weds do we need Thurs as well???

    Awesome day at the track yesterday. Was good to put faces to names.

    Couldn't really ask for better weather.

    Thanks heaps marshy for the suspension tips and adjustments, it made an enormous difference, I went from a snails pace to a turtles pace because of it!

    Also thanks to Joel for letting me borrow your tools since I forgot to bring most of the tools I would actually need. 👍

    Mate you were handling it surprisingly well! There would have been many more expletives coming out of my mouth if I were in the same situation, haha.

    Cool music dubbing
