If you want a scouting ride, we're going on a slow ride out throught the Yarra Valley tomorrow: 1 GPz1100, one CBR600F (hasn't gone round corners since "the accident") and one Suzuki of some sort (GSX1400?). PM if you're interested, but we won't be scratching...

Went out this morning (Sunday) - sorry I posted that last one on Saturday night; VicRoads in Bundoora isn't on a lot of maps (it's new), but there are lots of signposts to it - just follow all the L plate drivers off Plenty Rd!

It's in the new development on Plenty Rd, immediately north of the Northern Ring Road, on the Eastern side of Plenty Road. It's a blank area on Google Maps, but you can find it by looking for Graduate Rd, Bundoora.
