The wet race is where we were at or not, we briefly star at ~ 3:53

All sorts of bits have been ordered.

Battered rearsets came off this afternoon. Tomorrow's jobs are checking the 12 front brake pistons, putting on the new alternator case and glassing in the holed tail unit.

1 month to Dijon, and no free weekends between now and then.

"swapped with Mick and out he went, just as it started to spit again. The track dampened up a bit more and Mick stayed out putting in a fiar number of laps, but was unlucky to get caught out at the end of his stint on the entry to chicane just before the start/finish straight.

The bike used its crash bungs, spilt a little oil, cuaght a little fire, got put out, a normal day at the office. No damage to Mick luckily."

Mick crashed in the wet whilst not on wet tyres....

The block is a quick change seat unit. The bike is shared between two girls, ex-gladiator and bike journalist Jaine Omorogbe and one of the organiser's girlfriend who is about a foot shorter, I think it's the only way to make their bike fit. If you look closely they're racing an SV650 in the 600 class (allowed due to different engine size limits for twins).
