Ah Update time! So between my last post and now i've had her out on a Track Day at Marulan Driver Training Centre and Ive Binned her
First - The Track Day - What a wicked day that was!! Organised by mark from CanberraRiders.org.au, I was a last minute fill in for a bloke who couldn’t attend. Best decision I’ve ever made.

Nervous as all hell for the first session, I quickly fell into the rhythm of the short, sharp Marulan Track. Buzzing around trying to chase down Macca on the Pink 9, I soon realised I was a fool for not doing this sooner. 50.5 Was my best time of the day - Not bad for a newbie!

A few peg scrapes and the knee down once or twice, it was time for the PocketBike CharityChallenge. Dont Ask cause i wont tell it was fail all over for my stupid TeamSupaStace RedBull SugarFree TNYBKE - But it was the only one with a taillight and a number plate. MickLC brought a gun to a sword fight with GiantBike, serves you right, Kip messing with your bike!

Failing StaceyStyle!! - Died halfway round cause it was a Yamaha - I told you we should have painted it GREEN! - but I carried it across the line and FINISHED, much to MickLC's Disgust.

Crash Report - TL;DR version: After a spirited LongWayHomeRide through the Cotter and Mt Mac, I lost two riders behind me. After slowing right down and not having them appear behind me i knew i had lost at least one, and better hurry my ass up to let the boys know. In my haste, I stopped concerntrating on where i was going and what I was doing and off into the gravel we went

As you can see by the slide mark in the bottom left hand corner, as the front washed out i lept off the bike, but not far enough to get out from underneath it
My Right ankle is re-broken and is a lovely shade of purple,... AGAIN!! Buzz Slid down the road and left a lovely Kawa Green Skid mark for about 3 or 4 feet. I landed on my hands and heavily on my left knee and chest – thank god for Draggins or I’d probably be in need of a new knee cap. It was only at 20-25km but it was fast enough for me to not even realise wtf was going on before I had slid halfway across the road on my face.
