Well that was a bit of fun!

2 sessions were enough for me for a first time. Only had the one big high side but its the riding position thats going to make me stiff come morning (fanar). And a SV feels really odd to ride straight after a Mini Moto...

Just got back home!!

I thought you did smashing (no pun intended ) for a first go!! As long as you don't get proper hurt, falling off is all part of the fun ... its funny, you didn't do a single low-side (very common) but you DID do a neat high side by the sounds!! ).

As for the riding position ... now you know why I suggested NO leathers/boots I just can't see it'd work can you!?!?

Although it gave you a great opportunity to concentrate on getting used to the bike, it's a shame the place was so deserted as there was no one else to play with really ... we need to get a few more people keen off here.

The guy that worked there that knows suzsv650 said he could prolly wangle a discount if we got a few of us up there

Did anyone take any photos?!!? I didn't think k of it until now!

I'll be up for it next time, providing i'm here.

The SWS section seems the best option as there's quite a few from chippenham area. (bout 4 miles from hullavington)
Bristols only 20 miles or so.

I'll be getting there just after 4 to get set up etc

For those wondering how much it is for hire bikes

?10 = 1 x 10 minutes
?18 = 2 x 10 minutes
?25 = 3 x 10 minutes
?32 = 4 x 10 minutes
?40 = 6 x 10 minutes

That I think is really good VFM ... it costs me the best part of ?40 in fuel and entry fees to run my own bike there for the evening!!

This is me losing it and my mate joining in!! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=LHZx-_iGobA

So there you go ... who is game someone ... anyone?!!?
Put me down for next time. If i'd seen your post i might have made it, & I just didn't get round to calling.
