Swift :cool:

Well I think I've slowed down a lot on the road since I've been riding more on the track - especially after starting racing.

But then I noticed my speedo telling me that it might just be that I'm more comfortable with braking hard, the handling of the bike and generally just carrying more speed etc?

So I don't know really. I do think I'm a lot safer on the road than I was. But then that's not hard, I'm surprised I'm still alive!

way too fast.


but its just so easy. really have to pull myself up on ocassions. i dont think any of really realise just how fast we go on the roads.

i recon if we saw some vidoe footage of us overtaking cars and disappearing into the distance we would be shocked at the speed.

good fun though. :D

I used to ride like complete ****, fast as possible everywhere.
But one day I had an experience (not a crash) that made me promise myself to either ride sensibly or get rid of the bike.

From the next day 'til now I've kept racing for the track, most of my rides are like I'm taking my test - although on a few occassions I'm still allowing myself to open it up a bit where I feel appropriate and hoist up the occassional front wheel, but make a concious effort to keep safe and not **** anyone off.

I WAS imortal when I was young, I can prove it... I'm still alive!

Fairly quick,but safe,.....I think!:burn:

"fairly quick"
understatment
I will give you safe though

I like to think I ride quick but within my limits and I always ride to get home in one piece, but I have been told I am a nutter :o so maybe I need to slow down a bit more.

To the prevailing conditions..... safe, smooth & progressive is what I aim for.

I'm gonna be sick.....................:burn:

1% slower than keefy or fordie.....which 2% off lunacy! :lol:

Thank god I haven't got more power.....
