Saturday 1st & Sunday 2nd March 2008 - Melbourne
















We just couldn't believe our luck, the World Super Bikes was on at Phillip Island just a two hour drive from Melbourne on the Sunday. We decided to go and after spending hours on the Internet and talking to people we decided that hiring a car and driving to Phillip Island was the way to go. We got up early on the Sunday morning and walked around Melbourne looking for Car Hire Companies. After lots of walking and being told no cars available we finally got ourselves a little 2 door red Hyundai Getz hire vehicle and armed with a map and directions we headed to Phillip Island. After asking for directions at numerous garages we finally made it to Phillip Island at around 1pm! Boy the road signs in Melbourne are useless! and my map reading is not what it should be! Luckily the main race didn't start until around 3pm. Check out the photos and if you saw the race on TV, you would have seen us both on the side of the track! Well, our bike friends at home told us they saw us on TV and what clothes we were wearing!
