Default Two days at Oulton

I'm trying to resist pulling the trigger on Friday/Saturday at Oulton next week.

It'll be cold, and probably wet, but after my last trip there I have unfinished business...

Resistance, it seems, is futile.

Cheshire in November. How bad can it be?

Too late, booked it hours ago.

This will be the last one of the year. Definitely.

Probably.

Got a set on spare wheels, but have never needed to use them. Worst case is I finally get a chance for knee-down antics in the rain.

One of my best track days ever was a sunny summer-like November day. It was reduced to two groups due to poor uptake and i managed 8 ace sessions before sacking the ninth due to exhaustion. Brilliant.

I'm there tomorrow in a forecast rain storm. Here's a pic from that ace November day in 2011.

I can't make it, so the weather's guaranteed solid sun

Your guarantee is worthless. Forecast is for mixed weather tomorrow and a downpour on Saturday. Starting to think I should have brought a jetski, not a gixer.

Still, at least the wheel swap will give me something to do when I get there tomorrow morning.

Bah. Make that one day at Oulton and one day picking mud and grass off the bike.
