phew, just got in, bit stinky and V tired. I'm glad you all had a good day


Nice to bimble up last night, sort the accom and go for a meal and have a laugh - set the tone for the day ahead.

Didn't look too promising first thing with low cloud and patchy drizzle, slightly greasy road surface etc - but then it happened


THE SUN CAME OUT! it warmed up, we got some breeze and the track was dry - game on

plenty of new faces looking a bit nervous, that soon changed - first session over and ebay searches for trackbikes started :)): :)): :)):


the day got better and better as the games of chase started, and the track temp went up, sticky tyres are fun tyres.

a nice simple looking circuit run by some fun and friendly people, Llandow is always good fun.

TOP DAY!

Big thanks to Mark, Gareth and Brian for being team leaders for their respective groups, you helped out quite a few today. Top job.


Right, off to prep next years Llandow visit.

Thanks Si for arranging yet another top day :-bd

Yet again well run and lots of fun.

Was getting a bit worried when I saw all the grey clouds but it was like somebody turned on the lights after the safety briefing. The ground was dry and game on :D

As usual I had my action camera recording all day follow the links if you were in fast group And fancy a look.

What someone brought jaffa cakes and didn't let me know :shock:

That's not the caring community, :cry:

(P.'s. Even my bike admits my love for jaffa cakes lol)

Yup one of many. That time trying to push harder out of that corner and the back spinning up. Thought that was going to be a high side but managed to roll off quick enough to save it and just go wide a bit.

Mix that with the front end pushes at the bus stop amazed I didnโ€™t drop it at some point really. ^#(^
