I started riding a bike again in late 2006 after a 24 years gap and I wanted to learn more and more...I did a track day in 2007: wow
I then found out about DD and I thought that this would be the best way to learn sport riding on track. 2008 was my first season in class B and I have learned lots. I finished all races I entered and I was not always last.
It is one of the most exhilarating experiences, not cheap though. Bike, gear, van, race entries ££££...No regrets though and I look forward to race in 2009 with a revamped and hopefully reliable bike.
The only thing I won't do again is to convert a road bike into a racer. To buy a DD ready bike is the best and least expensive option for people like me with little mechanical skills.
