Default Minimoto hemorrhoids

socommk23 and I went minimotoing last night ... it was a good crack as always, and nice to have some new people to go with ... oh and the boy did good for his first time (probably add more detail later ).

... but as always my bike/s let me down several times during the night ... the finale was this ...






That was a brand new tyre for that evening too

But how cool is that?!!? a minimoto tyre with hemorrhoids

Chinky import or proper Blata/Polini one?

Do you happen to know anywhere that does minimoto days? like go karting where a big group can have a go for an hour or so?

Yes ... and that is where I go!! ... http://www.minimoto.co.uk/contacts_links.html

Its indoors so not weather dependent either

It is a ruddy long way for me mind ... but as I have no other alternative, make the trip!!

How far is Hullavington, Wilts SN14 6BT from you?

There are other venues dotted about the country, but that is the most local indoor to me (still 110 miles away!! )

socommk23 - it was funny seeing you going way-way too deep in the corners and ending up on all the slippy stuff!! ... honestly though dude, at the moment you need to go a little slower before you can go faster Its all a learning curve though and at least you were attacking it full steam ahead 10 out of 10 for an artistic set of 'recovery' lines!!

Oh and I prolly have some of your paintwork still on the side of my bike!! ... can I have mine back too plz?!?!

Crashing is all part of it and as long as you walk away its all good ... Unfortunately I didn't see you crash once!

Its also a shame my mates onboard camera wasn't working properly

those lines were great...the recovery ones.

as i said to you blue....it wouldnt havebeen half as much fun without the crashes.

and as for the going a little too fast....that was the best bit...then getting on the breaks hard!

think i done a great line on every corner....just nat all on the same lap!

practice makes perfect and all that!

would be good to have more people on the track...was so much more fun battling it out with you! though im sure you were just playing around, you made it so much fun and so much more intence!

oh and im keeping the paint as i was thinking of red stripes on my black bike anyway and it looks cool!

was an awesome bit of mid corner contact! and i didnt back down or come off! (on that one)
