Smile Brands for me
no big write up from me this year.

few things on the aim list this year and Brands, having been a back-marker last year but seen reasonable progress:

* top 10 got a 6th & 7th
* beat Craig Oh yes
* beat Phil phew!
* get to 1m lap Bingo
* not get lapped by class B bike yippee doodle dandy, expected Brtands if anywhere over 18 laps and only top 3 A 1st race and top 4A 2nd got me

achieved all of those already and a few I didnt expect to have until end of this year - great race Badger

Just got to keep it going now!!

15th April cant come quick enough....

You have worked so hard to get the result that you acheived this weekend Paul. From fitness to advice, bike setup and 600 cans of paint. Obviously my Jedi mind tricks do not work on you anymore ! Damm that left hander.
Was it all a fluke, was Brands everyones best track ? Mallory here we come.
Well done Paul your in the points and at the top of the 3 amigos.

Craig

As others have said, you have worked to get this result, and you looked good out there.... A big improvement over last year. Just don't get too fast!

I would have needed at least another 6+ laps to have caught you, which on a lap as small as Brands shows how fast you were going (you only needed to be 3s a lap slower to be caught, but you were within 2s of us all the way.

oh that still stands....wouldn't call it a goal tho, more a starlight dream

but hey, looking how you progressed over the years, if I can build on the changes who knows come the end of the year, may even be close enough to see you and that fast lot at the front crossing the line





top 10 all year will do tho

That final step is all in the mind, Bradders...and judging by the way you've dealt with that bit so far...who'd bet against it. Well done
