Fair enough! Either way, Binky now has leathers so I expect to be seeing some knee down action at a ride-out soon

I'm a short **** so I have to lean the bike over lots to get my knee down - I was scraping knee and toe at the same time around silverstone

Wait till the weather and roads improve and just play lots! Best place to practice is track days though!
