I had a ball on the ride. I would have been the widest thing on it, I chose my ride space and looked far enough ahead to pick my lines, demanded my space and got it, don't argue with something as wide as the outfit, got more metal in it than a new commodore.
Yes there were plenty of dickheads, but far less than a christmas toy run.
The GSX is riding very well, all ready for the OCBR in a couple of weeks.

Forget everything you've ever imagined about a group ride.....etiquette, protocol and just plain good old manners and courtesy.........every peanut in Perth that rides a bike was there and all his mates came too. Truly manic....even a couple of irritating buzz boys on little scooters...arriving at every set of lights up on the inside in the gutter, then going side by side up to about 40 kph, trying to get past them, only for them to come up the inside again an the next set of lights..enough to give you the s#*ts.....then five street bikes wide at the next set of lights.....D*ckheads..
So, for me next year, I'm taking the train.......![]()
Funny how some people perceive themselves up against others....Like bully.. I enjoyed the ride mostly, although it would have been better if the lights were manned and the ride allowed to go through.
Certainly a better place to watch those crazy guys doing the stunts and the paddock rides... still can't bring myself to upgrade the rockster and for the 1st time in seven years another rockster had turned up at a ride.. even the same colour scheme.

I must have been in a fairly well behaved part of the ride.....about a third from the front I guess.
Not too crazy.
