Talking Trackday @ Cadwell



Taken at Cadwell on Monday, at my 1st ever trackday. Borrowed my BinLaw's R1 for the day. Great day, but boy is it exhausting !!! 20 minutes of intense physical activity x 7.

Oh tell us more.
Going again (apparently it's a slipy slop that can lead to race bikes and allot of enjoyment).

R1 felt huge compared to the 750 ! loads more room and the tank 7 bars are wider than 750. Only thing I didn't like were the racing brake pads, they didn't half bite. Got the back end up twice and ended up having to miss the chicane and take the escape road, even punched a cone on the way thru', LoL.

this comment adds fuel to the nearly extinguished fire that Ron was annoying people in the Dumfries area a couple of months back....

Hope you had a great day at Cadwell (the most beautiful track in the UK if you ask me, which you probably don't)

Thanks for sharing that with the world, bibs.
Cadwell is ace. Did a circuit walk at dusk sunday night, was a lovely wee stroll. Surprised how steep the gooseneck is. Compared to the dump site that is Knockhill, Cadwell is lile the garden of Eden.
