Mae hi'n braf, Mae hi'n wyntog,Mae hi'n bwrw glaw,Mae hi'n ddiflas!!
 
What a mixture of weather we had, but to be honest I loved it, racing in the dry is one thing but the Sundays races were just mad - and I for one really enjoyed it! For those road tyres to keep us upright is a minor miracle, and whoever suggested my brake set up, thank you really fantastic to hear the brakes pads bite into the discs, even in those conditions it is amazing.

I have learnt loads this weekend, how important the gearing is, fuel management, how to find grip, racecraft and that one set of tyres will not do the test and race days for three meetings!! My results won’t set the world on fire but for me a real step forwards, to be mid pack will do just fine at the moment - if I could only get the thing off the line!

Thanks to loads of people, Trudi as ever, Andy - I'll buy a microwave and fuel syphon soon, honest. Skids - you’re a great target, Kev P - the gearing master - I will wave at you one day! Tom Roberts - you are a gent giving us all a one lap start! Matt L - for towing me round in the wet 4 lap warm up and Miles who I always have a great battles with.

Finally, GWS soon to all the injuried parties, hope to see you back on track soon. Roll on Oulton!! :)

Does fuel management also include making sure you have enough for the weekend? I should really have dedicated my last podium to you for getting me some more fuel Saturday night.

Praying for sunshine at Oulton, not:devil:
