Silverstone - WSB

'twas a good day! Loads of free activities.

Cheers again for the ticket dude. Muchas gracias.

Nice to meet you all. Hope you enjoy tomorrow. I think I'd be dead on my feet if I went tomorrow...long week and no sleep last night so I'm pussying out!

Me & Girth are going. Woo Hoo.

Girth got some corporate tickets as a result of a competition with one of his works suppliers. Happy days.

Free Dodgems...Awesome
Bike Skills Academy...Awesome
Free Mini Moto...never ever want to get on a mini moto ever again!!

Bike skills was the most fun though, some of the tightest circles i've ever done, basically a low speed control test, saloms into a full circle around cones...all timed against the clock. I did the course 3rd fastest with a 31.1, Taz Daz 2nd with a 30.8 and then there was a guy who was blisteringly quick at 28.9.

Nice to meet Taz Daz, top bloke.
Saw and spoke to Zobers a few times, she was having fun selling programmes.
G is a penis and nobody likes him and he was slowest at the bike skills but he rinsed us as on the Mini Moto's...I spent most of my time on the floor and as a result when he went past he kept getting his knee down...on me.

Top day, much better than I had expected, looking forward to 2moro but won't get there til midway through the first race

I was only the slowest out of us 3 and only by 0.9 bitch, I blame the crappy verys I would have been happier in 1st not 2nd

I ruled where it matters on the (minimotos) track lol.

Was an awesome day though.

Slightly ****ed at my fuel light not working and having to push my bike 3 miles on the way home though lol fecking nightmare. Still out of fuel is better than blown up which is what I thought I had done, still had 2 fuel bars and my oil and engine management light came on, I **** my self.

Not amazingly on topic, but a couple of pics of the lads in action...phone camera so pretty gloomy looking.

I really like the Kwacker Versys. If I was minted I'd probably have one in my twenty bike garage.

Back at home now. Had another cracking day. Made use of my 5 complimentary tickets by inviting Kerri's dad and brother, my dad and the Binkmeister.

Had another go on the bike skills thingy and managed to get down to a 30.12 which was the second fastest of the whole weekend. The guy that did the quickest time yesterday was back today and managed to get his time down to 26.9!!!

Saw a crash at the start of the Supersport race, the guy limped away so lucky I guess. Saw another in the last race of the day, the crashee had his front cut off in front of him.

Good day for the brits though.

Did Binky do the tight bike course thing too?

Yeah man. I loved it. Did it in 25.7 after starting with a 35.9.

So pretty chuffed really.

Just got back. Absolutely awesome day. The Brits rule!!!
Camier rocks. B0ll0cks to team orders he was way faster than Biaggi
The second race rocked, the last lap between Haslam and Toseland was great.

Nailed the wheelie simulator. Still not sure I've got the balls to try it for real though.
Was going to have a go on the minimotos but they had packed up half an hour early
Saw Craig Jones do a massive rolling burnout starting at the end of the wellington straight, around brooklands, then around luffield virtually up to woodcote. He then turned around came back right in front of us, did a burnout and then highsided right in front of a packed grandstand Looked like he smaked his face on the floor wearing his
p!sspot helmet too.

[Binky]

Yeah, they said he really got the crowd going before he came off.

I am gutted i didn't give the mini moto a blast before they packed up too. Mega bummed
