PHIL-THE-DRILL | 18-Sep-2011 18:37 | Well, I've always wanted to have a go at bike racing and was lucky enough to get the chance this year.It was into the unknown at the beginning of the year, everyone has been so kind and helpful especially when you don't know the ropes. Definitely a steep learning curve from normal riding, I think there is no better place to start, as someone is always willing to find the solution to any problems you have, it is a close knit DD family. Really well organized at all the different tracks by the race committee and Trudi keeping us all in order. It has been a really great season for sure and the icing on the cake was winning the Novice Championship - thanks to Neil for organising it , can't wait till next season. I'd really like to thank my wife Liz for being so patient and supportive also Bradders for his words of wisdom and sharing with us. More fun with my fellow competitors next year :D Phil |
