| I would have posted earlier but I spent yesterday up to my ears in SH*T the bl**dy pipes to our cess pit had blocked over 4 hour wasted and i can still savour the aroma even now! For some unkown reason the focused events guys thought that it was sensible to put 50hp bikes in the fast group so dickie and I went out with them for the first session, although dickie weedled his way into the inters I was told that no one had comnplained about me and i was ok!! It certainly was good preperation for the first race being close passed by a dozen bikes ever straight  , and to add insult to injury my clutch started to slip in the second session and after that i had a four speed monster and couldnt open the throttle fully even in 3rd gear.It was nice of old yella to say I was comfortabley quick but I certainly didnt feel quick although that may have been due to bikes with over twice the power just p*ssing off as I struggled to extract all the power the clutch would take. Dominic followed me for a couple of laps and said my lines were ok but he obviously got bored and just disapeared but I felt happier at the hairpin and barn so hopefully it was money well spent. on the clutch front one of the dls bikes suffered the same problem and although I amd fitting a new clutch today I amd going to pack it with an extra plain plate to prevent a reoccourence. It was nice meeting jon again and all the other club members and look forward to seeing you all this weekend dave  |
