A black & blue weekend at Taupo

Posted: Wed 16 Sep 1998

Jeff Preou took his Suzuki RG150 to the Level 1 Road Race Training course at Taupo last weekend to see what Fred Merkel (and the other coaches) could teach him. Jeff agrees that MNZ are doing a terrific job with these courses and only wishes that he\'d remembered the keys for his bike.... (It\'s not as if it doesn\'t happen to others. Using only the biggest, most expensive chain, I secured the bikes on the trailer for the drive to Minginui. Thank goodness that at Taupo I discovered that I\'d forgotten the key. It took the best efforts of the local fire dept. to remove that chain!) But that was then and this is now, so click here to find out why getting the bike running was only the start of Jeff\'s problems.
