Dibbs top chap...great stuff - never cacked myself so much. Brands fantastic place to play, even in the novice group. Met some nice peeps too.

Apart from hitting a false neutral on clearways and nearly ending up in the kitty litter, I had a fantastic time. I thought the 10 mins sessions with Apex were good as well.

Look forward to getting another one sorted

Anyway great track, great day, great fun.

Cheers

Paul

Thanks Dribble mate
Most enjoyable trackday I've had in yonks Pietro, especially once I'd moved into the mental inters. I must confess how good it feels when only 2 or 3 superbikes can pass the Monnie on the GP circuit

Well done to Gary and Catherine for an excellent trackday, well organised, plenty of track time and, with food and drink laid on, nothing to worry about during the day left us free to concentrate on the riding, still got a headache from all that concentration. Might want to get the instructors to spread themselves out on track a bit more, once or twice they were racing round together in a non-fast group. Whenever I see an instructor out on track in front of me I want to follow his lines and see how they get round, didnt expect one to try undertaking me through Surtees Mustnt let these little things detract from such a marvellous experience tho!
As Bill and Ted once said - EXCELLENT!

cheers. but Apex take the credit ..... as well as Skidlids, without whom its unlikely I'd have seen the circuit ..... top work fella .... and Louigimotos suspension set up ... top work, still dog slow .... but safer with it ....

In reality the day was made by the people I got to spend it with ... so thank you all.

Glad to be of service Dibs, I must remember to bring more tools to trackdays, especially a 55mm tap for Cadwell.

As you say "What goes around, comes around"

As Psych points out a few unexpected on track antics, one guy on a GSXR came tearing past me on the 1st lap of one session and then carved his way through the group in front, disipte the pit lane board saying Cold tyres, no over-taking on first lap.
That and the instructor on the Hornet overtaking me under waved Yellows as we approached Cearways.

Someone tied Dibble's bike down? It looked as though it was dragged behind the van all the way.

Just curious.

Grazie Pietro, se vuoi facciamo un corso di italiano accellerato cosi' la prossima volta che sei in Ducati Bologna puoi raccontare in Italiano che sei un factory rider della "dibble corse".....

I am not translating this one...!!
Thanks Pietro and everyone of DSC that was there.
