If it wasnt a tuesday I would have considered doing that one. I dont have all that many holidays left to take this year

On focused events website I notice they dont seem to have a bit to select your group when you click book online.....Does it ask you at a later stage or soemthing.

How do you get the 10% off??

You can have the copyright fella, you've earnt it. I'm still baffled how you manage to make 100+mph look like you're "popping t' shops forra pint a milk"

I was going to do a trackday last year but didn't really go for it in the end due to worry of crashing etc but I wouldn't mind going it if there was a big group going so there was a bit of support around! Anyone mind if I tag along next time? I'll only go if you promise NOT to take the p**s out of me going so slow!

Dude anyone can go, I didnt know anyone until silverstone and they were all a friendly bunch, and I hope something similar can be arranged in the future.

As for worrying about dropping your bike, you ride as you feel comfortable, just dont get carried away and you shouldnt even come close to dropping your bike.

It's Jambo, he's smooth as fook (although apparently not AFTER Silverstone on the way home according to Jo ).

He keeps telling me that I'll probably be faster than him on the track...... not-fooking-likely!

Sorry mate, no can do.

If you go with the Soho Massive EXPECT the urine to be extracted.

Its pretty much how we communicate with each other

Besides, dont worry about going slow - I will be treating my 1st trackday as an off-road (but still on road surface) training day with no oncoming vehicles.

Wont be caring about speed, mine or anyone elses.
