And handing out Haribo jelly sweets while were waiting on the grid to go out John..doesnt get any better than that !

Yep great day resulting in a 1.04 lap which I was quite happy with on the bikes (rubbish!) standard Michelin Pilot tyres.....apart from my highside slippy slidy moment entering the esses...absolutely shat myself I dont mind admitting...it was only the damper that stopped me going over the bars..

Quite nice experience following young Stuart Easton round on the 749 (very quick young man)..although he did outbrake himself at Edwinas and went straight on

Also impressed with Dave Reilly on his desmodue bike...very swift..


Cheers
Nat

AK also had a brilliant day.

He just came home with an extra bike - black M900, about 5 yrs old & 5 thou on the clock, and hefty scuffs newly created, and a few broken bits on it

Owner did phone us a short while ago, but Alan didnt get his name, or a phone number (muppet!).

If anyone knows him (Twickenham resident - no, not TP) AK CAN fix the bike with the loan of stuff from our race spares bin, enough to get the bike ridden home.

Absolutly cracking day.
Spent many hours talking to lizzie and Michael and the other DD'ers Had lunch with Stuart and the lads from Ducati uk(whilst negotiating for the damaged 620).
Most impressive part of the day was watching Stuarts race mechanic Jay bounce the back of Chris's bike half a dozen times and the discribe to Chris EXACTLY how its handling!!!
Knowledge is a wonderfull thing.
As usual the lads from No Limits ran a first class day.
Thanks to all involved

He and I have a similar riding style

I followed him through after getting the back wheel of the 999 off the deck - where's the brown leathers smillie?

Was a very good day

Big thanks to No Limits for a well run, friendly day

Charlotte, I may have the van at your place tomorrow with my monster in the back of it so I could bring it back to Twickenham as well if it's needed.

Then I could have three Ducati's in the garage , albeit briefly
