Yes, you do, and preferably with an aerobatic endorsment for when you loop it! Don't laugh, I've seen it happen. Scary or what!

Loz. Are you really gonna ride that beautiful new bike on the track? Are you sure? The woman at No Limits told me she wouldn't let me do Cadwell as my first track day specifically because people fall off doing unintentional, overcooked wheellies on the mountain. Hey ho. One rule for us women and another one for you blokes.

I'm not helping am I.

Ruth, the 999 has to go up the mountain. I have a nice new back tyre, but I'll need to conserve the front - so wheelies will be the order of the day.

Anyway, unintentional, overcooked wheelies are the only ones I know how to do!

Message to Keith 'No Hands' Ducatirider - Popham attendee.

I am sure someone, somewhere, could dissuade you from buying a Pan European.

Have you also considered Goldwing? That might suit you?

Loz, I've never, ever done a wheellie, and Cadwell is NOT where I want to start. I consider it a 'bloke' thing. But I'm willing to give it a try sometime. Do the instructors give wheellie lessons, do you suppose?

I really don't know. My advice ... don't ask them!
