will be good fun if its wet for those that havent been there before.

skittles are us.

I think just staying upright and waiting for the over enthusiastic to fall off will be order of the day if it rains!

what is it with everyone overtaking me on the way home. bloody racers!

just a quicky to say nice to meet some of you - awesome track - awesome set of people and bikes - interesting to see all the dd racers and some really well prepared bikes - hope the chap is ok who offed in front of me - seemed ok - have it on (a foggy) camera and will post it when processed
the bike went really well - my second time in inters , first time at oulton and first time in the wet (on supercorsa pros as well) so a few to chalk up there

Just got back from Winsford after a great ride home. Big thanks to Claire and Jon for putting me up in their super new home, for a terrific BBQ (love your burgers, Ian) on Tuesday night and a highly amusing evening last night with Gizmo, Linzi and MartinH. An excellent gathering of DSC peeps. Really nice to see the Big Daft Geordie and his shorter daft mate Assi.

It's a fantastic track, once it dries out. Much better than Cadwell, I think. Faster, more flowing but technically demanding. Definitely worth going the extra distance from here, especially now that I've adopted Claire and Jon as my cousins in the North. I had a really good day out, only marred by my clutch starting to slip big time in the 6th session and pretty much give up by the last session. Big thanks for Gizmo for taking it all apart, showing me how to clean it all and putting it all back together. I'm about to order a new set of clutch plates and I'll be putting them in myself (expect a couple of phone calls, Mike!) Apart from the clutch trouble and a bit too much rain, that was a perfect DSC event for me. Deserving of a regular slot in June/July?

Can't wait for the DD racing. I'll be up there cheering everyone on. You're going to have a fantastic day

Where were the pics taken?

There's some pretty impressive and comitted braking action going on - some front wheels tucked into the rad

Great day and well done to JPM for suggesting and organising an unofficial DSC track day. I'm sure DSC numbers were swelled by the forthcoming DD round, but thats also why JPM picked that day.

Thanks to WJB and No Limits for the DSC discount, i do think No Limits do a damn fine job as track days go.

Sorry i missed the BBQ but i'd just been away from home for most of the preceeding week so stayed in avec les enfants.

Quite right, Shaun. It's the DSC members (including the ones who haven't renewed their membership) that make this club for me, and Jon organising the day with No Limits was a top job well done.

Never thought I'd say this but I'm beginning to see the attractions of Up North

Please don't post it up Nick, I get enough stick of DSC peeps as it is.
btw if you lot think it was slippery on the track, you might want to go and try the grass some time.
