About 23 Tourers and friends (some wearing their mandatory crash helmets but very little else) paraded down Fitzroy St to the cheers of thousands who had assembled for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see Rolf riding at or below the speed limit. All went brilliantly, although at one point Rolf revealed himself to be Batman when he accidentally deployed the Bat Smoke Screen on the GSXR.
A few photos courtesy of Brett, Justin and Adz, have been posted in the Tourers photo gallery, but look out for the full ride report (sheesh, I've had longer rides down driveways!) in the next edition of "Chain Lube"!
