Yes, but how interesting is it going fast in a straight line?

Glad you had a good day, I decided not to go, just to save some money as I've been spending too much on other stuff lately

Glad you enjoyed it. I did one of those days once, missed some sessions cos I was done in! Don't worry about straights, it happens all time with slower bikes. Track day paddocks are full of flash bikes and set ups that put club race meetings to shame these days. Half of the 1000cc riders are terrified of their own bikes. At least you know you have the moral high ground Did you change pads? Wot sort did you go for?

Well, done it today. I'm officially addicted! It dry for the morning sessions, but rained after lunch. I had so much fun, didnt disgrace myself too much I don't think. Although I've got plenty to work at.

A bit embarrasing when the instructer overtook me one handed though! Ha!

At Leeming on Saturday, there was a KTM Adventure showing the big sports bikes the way round. Hilarious & was on trail tyres too!
