Anyone tomorrow night at Silverstone?
 

Guys, I am going to be there for the evening session.
Never been to Silverstone and look forward to see one of the motorism temple in UK. I know is not great for bikes, wide and fast, more for cars, F1 circuit.... but for 49 pounds is fine to check it out and put a mark on it waiting for Donnie, Cadwell and Brands GP.

Drop a line if any from the DCS will be there.
Ciao

Now that is evertons style...a fast grope!

Andy...do you know what time we have to be there for registration etc?

yar, is it 4:30?
:puzzled:

I'm in, I work in Milton Keynes, so not far to go for a blat, slow/inter group too as it's the first time I have tried the SPS on track!

Lady on the phone said from 4 o'clock to sign on, but I'm thinking 4.30 is soon enough, supposed to be on track for 5.30.

Cheers,
Ian.

Nice one Ian...see you there.

I'll be on the SP in the piccie (<----- Left)...come say hellooo!

im geting the bike on the van now! see you lot there.....
:burn:

Just loaded the bike on the trailer and the sun is shining!!!!!!!

:sing::sing::sing:

Hope everyone got home safely........what a brilliant evening!!! Glorious sunshine, the gp track is woo hoo!! Nice to see Harv again and his tool!!!

The ducati that was on its side just at the end of the complex????? was that you Simon??? Are you aware of the site tradition with a new avatar?:frog:

Yep...was a cracking eveining. The first time for me on the GP circuit and after a bit of a nervous start (very quick in places)...It really grew on me to the point where I was really loving it in the last session.

Typical though...my regulator ( i think, going to have to now do a search) started to pack up causing the bike to splutter and the rev counter to pack-up. Happened on the last lap of the evening though so no worries there.

Theres something about Silverstone and regulators for me, first time I ever went there on my old 748, the regulator practically blew itself up!!!

Nice to see Brggins again on his 999 xerox rep and Bradders, who popped in on his way home from work, in a loverly pink shirt and tie combo :lol::o

As for Simon...a little bruised I think (both ego and physically) but he was walking around shortly after.

As for crashing twice in 3 sessions...well...I leave him to explain that!!!

Harv, did i see you and brogins battling it out at one point? Sounded awesome on the start / finish straight!

Well it was great fun, following and swapping places for one session...until my engine/rectifier started playing up and I was unable to give it some down the staright...but no worries there...just had him through bridge corner instead:D

That, and abbey before it, are so deceptively fast corners. I still cant work out how the superbike boys go through it flat out though??

If Abbey is the corner (slight left kink) before the bridge...then that was my favorite bit...not flat out by any means...but a real test of your dangly bits!!!
Slight lift off the throttle, then down under bridge for a quick right....nice!

hello:D

MMMMMMMMMMuuuupet!

sorry I missed you andy - saw you go out just before I left but surprised you had 999r bodywork on, til Harv pointed out its TD b/w but with stickers...DOH! Bike sounded awsome tho mate...Simon - we kinda met, I was the big guy in the 'poofy' pink shirt (cheers Harv - roll on cadwell!!) but you were a bit busy sorting it for the next session

lovely eve, made me wish I lived more central...

What a day!
I don’t know what to say, but I loved it,

And yes I did come off 2 times out of 3 but the first one was not bad and the 2nd one was, I think the bike high sided but I’m alive in a bit of pain.

:borg:

So whose got spares going I need a lot :barfy:

jeepers mate, thought it was just a bit o grass when I left, got to admire your spirit tho...

Bradders I remember you, yep I was busy getting the grass out of the bike, well it look like cornerspeed is going to love me or hate me?
:puzzled:

Dammit. I phoned focus this morning but all places were gone. DOH Damm the sun, apprantly the blokes phone was ringing off the hook with track dayers getting out of bed and seeing the sun shining.

Great to see you all guys..Had a blast tonight..
SILVERSTONE is FAAASSSSTTTTT ..mamma mia!!
Great to ride with Harv... he passed me under the bridge I was looking like standing still..... still was great to ride with someone you know.
Simon, you wild man.. is a ducati, not a supermoto..you can't ride sideway all the time!! just kidding..I hope that the damage is not too severe..
Look forward to Brands GP...
