Hi All,

Taking the ST and my new auxilary tank (thanks Gatey) out for a little spin tomorrow. I'll be chasing down some Christmas spirit.

Leaving about 2.30am.

I'll watch your progress with interest, and photos of the new aux tank when possible would be nice.    :popcorn

If he's taking 20 minute coffee breaks he's certainly not on the usual tight schedule!

He's meeting TJ at the Beenleigh Rum factory for a Christmas snort spirit then home for a casual SS1600 (approx 1686 kms).

He might buy a special bottle, but being a serious rider, it would go in the pannier, not the mouth.     :thumbs
