Yeah that was what happened last night when we tried to go down, tonight was perfect dry road, almost clear night and it wasn't to cold well until you got back up to Berowra.

Yeah I must admit so spoilt is an understatment, love our ol road, so much fun, we are also very lucky with the bikes we have got, they look so sexy next to each other parked outside the pub in Brooki, green and gold, so sexy just love the kwakas. :kuda: :kuda: :kuda: :kuda:

It's one of the best roads to learn on (you may have heard me say that before ;) )
I always loved riding it at night - just be careful of the nightlife ;)

Yeah that's why I won't do it alone and didn't go down it to hoon, just for more practice and just love night time generally, you certainly learn cornering at night to, it's funny though how much more relaxed I am on that roda, I don't tense up or panic which makes it much easier to be aware of things and scan to. :kuda:

The old road at night is something else, actually any twistie road is... freaky when your headlights just pick out the glowing eyes of the nightlife though :shock:

Back in the old days I used to go on midnight to dawn runs, including the Old Pacific Hwy, McCars Creek Rd & North Head for sunrise :D they were great fun.

I've killed too much wildlife on the OPH at night to really enjoy riding it at night now :shock:
