Few pictures from Wigan test day 10th May

[mister c]

Did my 1st test day on track yesterday for over 3 years & took my camera along for when I'd finished my session. My son used it while I was out on track, but struggled with the settings. It was absolutely chucking it down when I went out, so 1st time ever using wet tyres (Many thanks Sideshow Pob, they were ace). The rain stopped just as my session finished, the track dried out in about 10 minutes, I was gutted. The new ZXR was faultless & I can't wait to get back on track.

Me getting used to the conditions & the bike. My clear visor broke, so had to use my tinted one. Glad I packed it now.


Fat bloke on a little bike


Nice quiet track for me.



Shows how wet the track was.


My mate Roy on his SV. Note how dry the track is, the lucky b*$*@rd!


A wide variety of machines there.


Sam Edwards on his Aprilia 450, he is a name to look out for in the future, good rider.




My eldest son on his Steelie.


& then there was this!!!! I think it's a Vespa The guy riding it was awesome, he was seeing off 600 sportbikes in the corners & giving them a damned good run for their money down the straights, fantastic to watch
