I'll be at Brands the 25th of March for a trackday (by Focus Events) to try the 620... Will somebody be there ?
My mate Deano will be there on his 998R that he will be trying to win the North Glos SoT championship on. So watch out for a rather rapid well sorted Blue Duke sponsored by Somerset Superbikes.
Good luck to all of you this year, youngest to oldest I hope to join you next year for some fun and frolics in the racing. May all your wins be sweet (that all your own personal wins) and all your landings be soft. there aint nothing like a grid to get the blood flowing.
Just track days for me this year, I came to late. Better than coming to early though a
1st bike aged 12. Bike test at 17 (when you could) and straight onto a GS550 Suzuki, then saw the light and bought a Triton when 19
Did a few days with the old Brands Hatch School of Racing on their CB400's
Rode on the road until about 24
Trials bike for a few years (old Tiger Cub). Gave up bikes until 33 then bought a motocrosser and an R1
Messed around for a couple of years on the crosser untill I tore all the ligaments in my right knee which kept me off the R1 for 6 months
R1 turned into a 999 early 03 and since then have done 7 trackdays
No race experience
Happy in an intermediate group, never run in a fast group. CSS level 1 only.
My mindset has always been consideration rather than obliteration - up until last week when I felt some horns growing and stomach muscles tightening - the hunger is setting in.
