Turncoat!

Glad you're OK really. Physically, not mentally - You're clearly not right in the brain

Stunning lap time though

If you'd improved in the race the same amount as everyone else then you'd have been lapping in the 24s, good enough for a couple of pots, probably large ones. I'm sure you'll come back and put the cat amongst the pidgeons again at Oulten.

God forbid you should ever get your hands on a 620!

Your not kidding and hopefully the better ones will soon return

It was great to see you put in that qualifying time, shows the rest of us 583 riders what is possible with our 10 year old bikes.


Hopefully wrist isn't as bad as first feared and you and bike will be ready for Oulton where I still think you should turn up with the bike in ninja Green.

And try and get out before then and bed some new brake pads in, some people might not think they need bedding in but the manufacturers of said items do.

PS
Sorry Andy I haven't got a gearing recommendation for Oulton, I'm going to turn up with 15/41 fitted and have a 42 rear in reserve

Gutted for you...and gutted for that beautiful bike...looking like a "proper" racer now though! Still...one person's pain is another's gain an' all that!!! No, seriously...I should have by rights got two fourths instead of two little cups for my efforts...but I'd still have rather seen you finish mate!

How's the wrist anyway?

i disagree Andy..you can only race who makes the grid .... and even if Griff had made the grid who knows how the race would have panned out......

u road a blinder, and if woods and or griff had raced it woulda been an almighty tussle for all of us.........

u did good.....................
