Re: October Track Days - Anyone booked anything?
I'm tempted, just got to speak with thne transport agency, I mean my dad, before hand. I'll probably book lateish depending on the weather forecast. But I'll be at Cadwell before the end of the year. Top track.

Did you do the GP circuit (the Melbourne loop) ... any pics?!?! Not a lover of Donny meseln ... but then my first ever experience there was in the wet/very damp (after a long dry spell I had the first rain) and I had some BIG moments when I felt I was barely trying ... its a well know fact its an ice-rink in the first rain as the track sits in the flightpath of the local airport and you get all the Avgas fallout from the aeroplanes ... I raced there in the dry the next day, but didn't do that well ... I think my experinace the day before had psyched me out mentally ... Last edited by Blue_SV650S; 08-10-07 at 09:14 PM. |

Re: October Track Days - Anyone booked anything?
Found some pics that were taken on the day - unfortunately even though I can hold my own in the intermediate group I cant get my knee down! So pics are not that exciting! Maybe with some leathers that fit properly and a friendly roundabout I will get there one day!!

Re: October Track Days - Anyone booked anything?
Yeah, the Melbourne loop doesn’t add much to the lap!! Its just cool to ride the same bit as you see the big boys do on telly
I only have one pic to go by, but you are sat bolt upright, its only ya second trackday and you sound like you are cracking on with it, but you are gonna need to address that riding position before it becomes a bad habit and you are finding it is holding you back (as it is now with the scraping pegs!!)!! When is your next one?!?! |
