ouch!

Hi chaps,

I have to say I've always liked the Dunlops in wet or dry, and I've always considered myself a pretty good wet weather rider and always enjoyed the challenge of 'weather'.

with regard to my accident,,, did I take the standing/running water too fast?,,,,, Maybe,,,, if I'd have backed off a bit more maybe it wouldn't have happened,, I don't think I did anything particularly wrong, I didn't do anything I hadn't done on every other lap,,, I did feel that I was catching Andy 'Lightning' Challis and was obviously pushing to catch up, not wanting him to get even further ahead in the championship.

Basically,,, My fault,,, an error in judgement,

I'd not had any problems at all up to that moment, and it was just a small slide in exactly the wrong second.

with Hind sight ,,,, If the race was cancelled I wouldn't have been happy, But, Not hurt now.

I thought I could win that race and would have said "yep lets race" if I was asked before hand.

I dunno what the answer to all these questions is,,, sorry chaps.

Matt.
