Ho I see bike parked up over winter then trash it umm but on a serious side there are learner with very little experience who would not be confident at those speeds

good point jp, maybe groups staggered out for different speeds etc,

yeh i know...and to be honest I've got to try and stick to the speed limits...at least until I've passed my test. And..I broke Ziggy in gently.. took it steady before letting him loose on the faster roads

The idea is for Learners to get some group riding in, we have rides all year for more experienced riders.

Karey remember some wise words from someone who blew up 3 engines ... The redline is not a target to be aimed for lmao

Sorry Ian. I gave you the wrong impression of an L plater. I always do 50-55 ( where it's legal of course lol) but I've been riding for 3 years. But that said I would still love to do a 125 ride out. Maybe I could help out on the rides as a more experienced L plater?

No you were right JP, most learners are not comfy with that speed.....so i still agree with you !!
