Originally posted by NBs996 I've heard there was lots of overtakes under the yellow flag at Druids... I had one rider pass me twice here (you know who you are!!).
Yup Nick...I was right behind you and your "sparring partners"... and witnessed open-jawed as a particular individual went past you, on consecutive laps, no less. Nobody came past me there, and I successfully resisted the temptation to "go for it" myself, despite having a few opportunities to pass quite a few people there...one time I think I even had you in my sights, Nick! I can understand the frustration and temptation to go for it, and indeed I've been well-and-truly barrated in the public pages of Pronto for infringing this rule at Cadwell. Antony #111 wasn't quite as kind as you in sparing his cheating opponent their identity, and I must say that I do feel unbelievably guilty for my selfish act....and I know that despite my repeated head-bowing and forelock tugging...acceptance that I was in the wrong and a full (although not written, 'till now!) appology, I know I won't hear the last of it (EVER?)! I still maintain that I didn't see the flag as it was on the outside of the track at the hairpin, and I was on the inside of Antony, but I admit I did see a stricken bike in the middle of the track...so I guess I should have known better! So, Ant....although you beat me fair-and-square on the day....I am really, REALLY...SORRY
I will NEVER EVER do it again.
