For all you novices in 2012

For all you novices in 2012, back in 2005 when DD first started and the first race at Cadwell there was a sea of novice vests. So dont worry everyone without a vest on the grid this year was one once. ( except Skids maybe, he was born with leathers on )
I think on this day there was maybe 3 non novices. there was a lot of nerves on the day but everyone of those riders had a smile on their face at the end of the day even the on one wheel starters. It was the start of a successful series now in its 8th year born out of a multi regional Bike Club and a bunch of members progressing from the DSC trackdays.

Look at TP - the most upright he was all weekend!

A couple of months prior to the pic some of those 620s were sat in dealership showrooms.
The Oldest 620 was 3 years old
and the Newest 600 was 4 years old

This Seaon that becomes
Oldest 620 will be 10 years old
and the newest 600 11 years old
