I'll chime in too...
all started out nicely, got to the track the night before, met Blue_SV & his friends & went for food in Louth
next morning dawned cold & rather damp, but clear, with the track drying out nicely. three painfully slow sighting laps - cadwell still looking like it did the last time I as there. out for the first session, slippy under the trees through the hairpin & barn, but reasonably dry on the more open end of the track, even the mountain - which I looped the bike off last time - didn't seem too scary. picking up a bit of speed, starting to scrape some plastic & then - doing 120ish down park straight - suddenly no more gearchange .. bugger
managed to sort out the bike with various people contributing parts, but missed a couple of sessions & by the time I got back out the rain came down again
the afternoon seemed to be either wet track/dry session or drying track/wet-1/2-way through-session & I was slithering around the hairpin and barn so i decided that discretion was the better part of valour & packed up - only for the last session to be probably the best of the day - D'OH!!!
a rather frustrating day, but nice to see Blue_SV again & to meet andyaikido, albeit briefly. also nice - & somethign of a novelty for me lately - not to be bringing home a bike in need of repair
