I didn't take any pics, too buys soaking it up
I will do a little write up, did do one last night but was interrupted..
I had a great time, couple of people came off but nothing awful.
I heroically didn't fall off Couldn't believe how slow I was in the morning but things improved in the afternoon when I brifely caught up with someone

Was there a designated or proffessional photographer there??? Maybe he has a website with some pictures of everyone on there...

Look foward to a write up aswell.

I got a few photos from my day at Rockingham, they came out quite well.

I bought a cd full but he must have mucked it up as they are all of me parked on different parts of the circuit........................

I'll get it sorted over the weekend once I've finiashed painting..............

Binky: Great photos man.

Skeetly:

I only just noticed this thread and I'm crying into me' beer. I would've liked to have gone to Oulton, just missed out. I'll keep my eye out for others. Been riding for about 18 months now and want to do more, know more, lean more. I can feel a track day coming on.

Generally, do you get much tuition and advice? Is it offered or do you have to be the pushy one and make a nuisance of yourself? Or is it basically just a hack?

Any recommendations of where a good novice one would be and roughly how much they cost? Pitfalls? Pratfalls? Insurance? I've been looking on the super-mouse-motorway and of course everyone says their's is the best but what do you lot think?
