No cadwell, so no assen, which means I'll be riding out of my skin at every other round. Good start to the season, 4DNFs.

not much consolation ali, but only 1 dnf... cadders is your dropped round and there's only 1 race at assen.
So no chance you'll be fit enough to just potter round at cadwell??

I thought it was two rounds as opposed to four races? Better if it's four races.

Off for an xray tomorrow, but the last time I asked (politely!) they said no way, no chance, not on your bloody life. Not a muscle issue, they just think the bones growing so slowly there's a possibility it could snap.

Ask Dave Reilly, he waited months before discovering the bone wasn't growing at all.

Ho hum.

Oi Tonio, if you need any help mate, i've got most weekends free until then, would be more than happy to come up adn give a hand with some spanners.

Cheers Weeksy, very appreciated.
But actually my problem is a money problem, not time

Starting at Brands I could have dedicated 3 months of my salary to the bike, but starting at Cadwell that's only 2/3 of that small budget... and furthermore it adds the Cadwell entry / petrol to go there / etc...

why not vote again, make it best of three ...????

its all quite funny from the outside ....

Tonio, good luck getting the bike ready mate ...

I don’t normally get involved with such discussions as the vote has been cast, so we now all have to deal with the line that has been drawn and make it work. However…

C was the option! What were people thinking of!!!!
Non-Point scoring first round for virgin racers is surely the perfect start, It did not affect entries to Assen for us younglings either! And towards the end of the year we could have had 3 race weekend extravaganza/party in Norfolk…

Tut tut tut.

Maxy,

IN YOUR OPINION... obviously a larger percentage of riders disagree with you.

[Maxypriest]

I accept that indeed they do - so i'll be seeing you all at Cadwell!

Cheers mate... Anyway my expectations for this year were to win at least one race. I don't want (and can't afford) to fight for the title.... So if I'm not ready at the end of March, Cadwell will be a DNS for me, that's not a big issue.





(will you be able to sort the bull**** from the truth in the post above??? )

Here speaketh a man of huge intellect and vision!

I thought the three race bash at Narfuk would be a classic, but then I'm not a 'racer' so I wouldn't know. These are just track days aren't they???
