I think Fiz misunderstood when I said let’s give go-karting a shot.
We met at the Big Kart Track at
Landsborough Sunday
afternoon at three. I’m still not sure if Fiz was serious when she was
surprised the karts weren’t like the go-karts we raced as children—the ones
steered by ropes with no brakes and made from old crates and wheels from broken
washing trolleys—surely she was joking!
Anticipation and excitement for the race
ahead interrupted my further questioning and anyways, I had important things to
organise—shoes, socks and disclaimers. It seems this ‘give it a go’ adage comes
with paperwork—participating is at your
own risk—this activity can be dangerous— while all care is taken we take no responsibility
for your safety. Living on the edge!
