I will be 45 later this year and up until 1998 had never been on a race track, I have done 9 trackdays, NO CSS or ESS, but I have raced every Year since 1998 although that probably only equates to as much tracktime as some people do in a year doing trackdays.
Last year I did 3 race meetings, Pembrey in March along with WJB/Monty only did 3 races which was a total of 24 laps so about 3/4 a hour or so, Thruxton race one was Red flagged on lap 4 and they ran out of time to run my 2nd race so about 7 minutes of racing and 10 mins of practice. Silverstone I did two complete races plus one practice so just over half hour of tracktime.
Put my best effort into 2002 where I pushed outside my comfort zone sometimes pushing to far (Ouch) since then I have settled back into my comfort zone as I have concentrated on doing the TT with my mate Adrian.
I just want to race don't matter much where I finish as I know that at the end of each year I have learnt something that makes me a better rider.
Current weight 79Kgs
Fitness level about 5% so room for improvement there.
