Yamaha R1 going into the corkscrew at Berowra. Nice wheel stand over the bridge and 85K's through the corner..... Sorry I do that at 95, that's why I caught you at the exit... thanks for the thumbs up !

I spotted a number of MX5s in Canberra over the long weekend.
Most were NCs, sometimes in the twisty roads around Lake Burley Griffin. The most notable was a black NC along the lake roads. Some spotted betweeen the Crowne Plaza/Casino/Cafe area of Bunda St and Manuka!

Non-MX5 spotting of note was a large, highly-fortified (tons of spiralled razor wire), highly-surveilled building site, not far from Perth Ave.

Later while chatting with a AFP officer I was told it's being built for China.

I was advised to not try and break in. ;)

Interesting story here. http://www.canberratimes.com.au/act-new ... 1t8ju.html

PS. A silver Eunos was spotted at the National Zoo. Stock looking. No NBs to report. There was a Trackschool Integra being trailered back from Marulan but no other interesting cars on the drive back to Sydney.

A red NA gave me the pop-up headlight wave, heading west on the Commenara Parkway, between the SAN and Pennant Hills Rd a little after 8 am this morning.

Saw a red NA lights up, roll bar and nice dished wheels on castle hill road heading up to the intersection of old northern road ... I was going the other way and couldn't reach the light button in time ! Sorry!

Silver(?) NA with black stripes heading up north from the Harbour Bridge, turned off into Crow's Nest about 6.30-7pm last night?

Probably didn't see me...was in the red ITR way back, caught up as you peeled off to the left and exited towards Crow's Nest.
