Mood: Channel Swim is now a (bad) memory not a dream
Had a fantastic day at Cadwell yesterday in the summer sunshine - I now have nice white lines along my face where my shades go. Was on the CB5 but my tyre was spinning up too much to be safe as it looks near slick on the right. Had a go on my mates bog standard CBR600 and managed 1.43 Would have been better if the brakes worked - nearly **** myself every time coming into Park - stop stop stop no please I really mean it this time, STOP. Fantastic fun though, amazing handling for a stock CBR, I'm seriously considering getting one for the track. I reckon with decent brakes and another couple of sessions I'd be under 1.40, which considering the best I ever did on my 748 was about 1.50 is going some. Racing this year has helped me to get faster mind. Still can't believe my time mind you - I'm sooo pleased with it - another 20s a lap and I'll be up to Hislops time!!!!! Too much respect to put into words.
