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
