Default Why did I even bother...

...loading my CBR trackbike into the van ready to go to Rockingham tomorrow?

Just looked out of the window and it's bloody snowing again. If I even bother going I doubt the bike will see a pit-garage before I come home again.

The weather is pretty poor at the moment. It looks set to continue for another week it least as well.

Hopefully we're getting all the rubbish weather out of the way early this year.

I have 14 at least lined up for the year....trackdays that is

Two of my best mates are trackday instructors, when they do a trackday I go too and my bike is in the van with theirs. When we get there I help out with them and do a little bit of booking in and pit-lane work for the company. I book in myself on the day, take a cancelled place or blag my way in for half a day at a reduced price. It's cheaper and I can pick and choose when I go out if the weather is crap.

Yesterday was rubbish, so I didn't ride, if tomorrow is rubbish I won't ride there either. It works out nicely.

Yesterday was Mallory, Oulton was a month ago. I went to Snetterton in between and only did a few laps before I came in cos there was a problem with the borrowed R1.
