Well, we didnt have snow here either, the sun showed at one stage!!!

Hope everyone got home ok and I hope you managed to sort some transport back Deej.


Nice to see you guys and thanks for showing me round deej and Chris.

As it was my first time here, I certainly found it different with the combination of very slow infield and very-fast outfield. Totally enjoyed it, I'll have to do it again soon.

Good luck to all the DD'rs, good shakedown test for the bikes today.

Oooh transport back??? does that mean?

[skidlids]

No Andy it doesn't mean any muppet awards
Looks like the head gasket on Deej's van had gone, the final part of the journey to get him to Silverstone was by way of the AA, which meant he couldn't use them to get him home. So he was trying to sort out other means.
He had green flag cover with his van insurance but that only covered 10 miles then £3 plus vat per mile after that, so that would come to a fair bit back to Cornwall.

Dom there is no garage 20 at Silverstone so we settled for my mental age and ended up in garage 11

Thanks mate...really chuffed with the bike..went like stink for a 20k mile 748 (14/39 gearing was cock on for silverstone), and the handling was great - managed a 2.26m lap which I thought was OK considering the zero track temperature and the fact that I couldnt feel my fingers after 5 minutes...!!

Just a bit of front end chatter under hard braking to dial out and then we can get stuck into the new season..!!

Good to meet you boys..thanks for the company..!

PS Big up to Chris for lending me his tyre warmers !!! (V.nice DD bike mate)
