I'm in the process of downloing the pics to the PC.

Could you please tell me when the pictures from cadwell on sunday will be on the Copeimages website?

Hey Yeti, That booming noise haunted me all the way home on sunday, no doubt that sunday wont be the last time I hear it lurking behind me! Despite of the weather I had a really good time and with yours and Chris's help I felt like had learnt more than I would have on a dry and warm track.
Cheers lads.

How do I join DSC and book some places on the trackdays?

You sound like Yella.....

"Now Lisa...be careful, take it easy, we are tracking in March...they have had to defrost the track, keep off the throttle till later in the day blah de blah de blah"............

THEN he subsequently took a stack of turf home from halls!!!


I didn't come off (said in a high pitched smug girlie voice!)

No Lisa but you did get the van stuck in the mud, and it wasnt even yours :P


Yeti mate, Hope the damage is as minor to your confidence as it sounds to your bike.

Still trying to regain mine fully after the two offs i had last year but we did Oulton on saturday and it was sunny as chuff and funny enough my front tyre warmer packed in too?

Sending em back to Diasec tomorrow for a service and a check over

Hope you get there on the 12th, I will be back at Oulton on the 14th but might make a trip down to cadders to check out the new steed

Was there today with Yeti. Two others went down at Charlies 1, so not too sure why. I certainly didn't see or feel anything out of the ordinary at that particular corner

This is pretty worrying. When I crashed there in October the front washed out on me in an instant, no warning whatsoever. As I'd hit the corner at the same speed about 100 times in the last 48hrs I can't believe I was going more than 5mph faster. At the time I blamed it on cold tyres because the corner isn't negative camber, but I still look back and can't believe how fast the front dropped away. Even the marshal said he thought it had to be liquid on the track...

Cheers,

Ali

My marshall said the same thing. He couldn't believe I fell over. He reckoned I was about as slow as a slow thing that's dead!

Very strange that two others went down in the same place too!

Ah well, the trial and tribulations!
