hi from the Qld boondocks in sunny oz
« on: July 04, 2014, 11:57:11 PM »
hi all
new here  was looking for info on my midlife crisis and have found it currently in the process of building a 750 k2  with a little stretch so as to ease a bad  back.

Cheers
Dave...

Hi and welcome Dave,
I'm in Toowoomba, hi to all you others also.
I'm thinking of taking my Hondamatic to Willowbank for a giggle. It's stock standard and no real powerhouse lol. Do you need leather pants and gloves to race? I don't have any yet but I have a leather jacket.
