Hi David, didn't get to meet you but was part of a discussion early in the day about who was on the DD bike. You've got the bike now come do some racing with the rest of us, best fun you'll ever have.

Hi all,

I'm sorry that I didn't manage to link up any of the names on the forum with faces on Tuesday, but what a great day out! I'd be keen next time around to be better organised and figure out in advance which garage you were all going to be in to get to know everyone a bit better.

Anyone else as impressed as I was with the Multistrada running in Intermediates? I rode one for a week in Italy last year and loved it, and seeing it on the track just reinforced to me what a great all rounder it is.

I was on the solitary Panigale running in the Novice group, parked in garage 29.

Ian

Racing? Do you have a 'fat knacker' class? Not the bike - me! Wouldn't mine and actually, it was very interesting to do a track day with similar types of, and powered, bikes. Actually, I wasn't that bad! Over took a few - the usual suspects - and got beaten on the straights plenty of times too. But yeah, it was better than being in a novice class on an open track day at Donington. Why they had obviously good riders on R1's in the novice group is beyond me.

Would i need an ACU licence to race?

Glad everyone had a good and safe day.

Fully reports very welcome but if detailed (eg with photo's) perhaps check with Antony as he's always after articles for the club magazine - make yourself famous!

As for T-shirts David, I hope they will have DSC written on

Maybe next time - Cheers - Frank
