I've got it sorted now Roxy, I hope. It was either straight on in that race or straight up in the last race. FFS. :eek:

Well, I've tried to stay out of the arguments and ****ging elsewhere on the world wide web about the whole thing.

Personally, I got the original news from Hottrax and was gutted at not going racing, but made myself feel better by booking a few days away in the caravan for the weekend that would have been the last round.

I then got told "something was bubbling" and hoped beyond hope that it wouldn't be at the farthest race track from my humble abode.

Guess what ?

Oh yes, a 700 mile round trip, extra day off work, no more leave entitlement for the rest of the year, not to mention a large fuel bill for the transit van, the endurance race and DD bike and a 6 hour drive each way to get there.

Then the delight of losing the deposit on the camp site I'd just booked.

BUT

I'm going racing and thats what I like to do, so the rest are just obstacles to overcome to go racing.

I've rebuilt bikes in under an hour to get to the starting grid, I've ridden with broken bones and I've limped shitty caravans to the other ends of the country just to do it and all because I love racing.

So a change of venue aint really going to stop me.

I've actually sent an e mail to Hottrax saying thanks for sorting something rather than leaving us thinking what might have been.

So, I'll be supporting the organisers by turning up and will even be buying the Hottrax team a beer at the weekend to say "Well done"

Which as a Yorkshireman, does not come easily. :lol:

Phil, it looks like even the weather is going to look after us, so lets go racing.
