Mood: Channel Swim is now a (bad) memory not a dream
had a brill day, started wet, but the cb5 with wets on was buzzing. by mid morning we had a dry line and from just before lunch the RR came out to play with super corsa pros. Did loads of laps, busy day. saw a few of the DSC lads. knackered now though. Picked up my new 05 upsidedown forks with the radial brakes from Colin at 100% who has just fitted Ohlins internals for me, should be fitted for Jerez in January.

Still Sunday to rest then it's off to Donny on Monday

Hoping that will be 'dry and mild' as well...

Hello

Many thanks to WeeJohnyB and No-limits and especially Mark for the instruction, arrived in the dark/rain, without thinking picked paddock number 13

an R6 and R1 in with me both crashed out.

Had a fantastic day lots of dry lines, and sun.

Made it home in good time to get the car to meet the Oxon peeps,
went to fuel the car and put £15 worth of unleaded in my diesel.

regards

thats about 16 litres and I think your tank holds about 70 litres so if you fill it up and dilute it down it should be ok, I know people who have done worse and got away with it. Just keep topping up with diesel and diluting it down

Was there at Brands and Dony. Bit of wet track Saturday morning and bit of wind on Monday but let's not be picky for a December hey! Absolute couple of brilliant days.

Felt absolute rusty since I had not been on a track for more than a year and was trying my new 998(R)S. So quite a lot of adaptation but getting back into it slowly... and realising what a brilliant bike I have.
Actually I managed to keep Johnny behind for a few corners (he was listening to the noise!!!)

Joining a picture of the bike as an eye candy. (some will recognise that this was the bike that Steve was selling earlier in the year).

That was the old man. he's getting on a bit now, he had a "senior moment"













Probably rushing to empty his 'bag.
