Hemel is north-west of London, in west herts, I know casue I'm from that area.

and there's just a light scuff to my shoulder. Get a photo up if anyones arsed. It really is just a slight discolouration to the leather.

But as said I bounced and rolled..I didn't slide. People have sead they shred when they've seen racers come off on the track....but people crash differently to the roads on the track. You hit stuff on the roads, you slide on the track.

You do certainly slide on the road as well.

I've got some teknics which cost me about £25 second hand and I would not hesitate to get another set.
