I don't think I'll be all that quick in a road race, altho I'm hoping for top ten finish to the season. I'm at my best on a supermoto, where I've even been approached after a s/m trackday and offered a ride after shaming one of the local championship contenders! So I'll be trying to ride the monnie supermoto style.

Like Dave, I'm stuck in that comfort zone on trackdays, but I know that'll get left behind before Cadwell. In fact I've got to get rid of that mindset at the pre-season shakedown test at the end of march!

should be a fun year on track I thinks.

60Kg eh Nick-I shall be watching how you go with interest........60kg is a GOOD weight for a 250 rider........

By the way the age thing is one of the reasons I'm not out there-I refused to be the oldest one-again-which at 56 I would have been + I have a 250 to campaign with WJB so wouldn't have the time-that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
