I haven't got the looks!

Saying that getting a woman in the series would really up the profile, and even though it shouldn't be that way I'd imagine she/they would get more interest from sponsors etc being a male dominated sport

you meant to say, ANOTHER one, didn't you ?

At last.

JPM and the 999 get out on track.

Did you win the lottery too mate?

Glad to see you both had a good day, your confidence seems to have come back eh

Nice times too both of you, cant wait for August

Lottery... not yet, but worth a shout this weekend I guess!

Confidence is coming back now, I needed a trackday to help me here, it's all in the head but on a track it's just easier, withing 2-3 laps I'd managed to get my knee down (first time on this bike... well without coming off !!! ) not that that is anything amazing, but just a good measure for myself mentally... and from there just gradually built on things. My big problem is stamina and wrist strength which hit me straight away, need to get one of those gyro balls or something I guess.

August can't come soon enough now...

with the way my years normally go I reckon i can safely say I will get slower not quicker.

It seems that the more i ride on the road the slower i get on track

Maybe I just need to stay on track and give up road riding!!

And Steve - if i can do DD on the 998 then yep I'll give it a go!! I am nowhere near good enough to be able to race on bikes where you need technique and skill, for me its all about determination

(I really should stop being lazy and log on as myself at some point...)
