Cadwell- good and bad news

Webber · Post by **Webber** » May 8th, '06, 16:40

just come back from a long and wet weekend at cadwell,

was running 3rd in the powerbike race yesterday when the front decided to go, and down i went

it was raining all day and rode as hard as i could up the field and got into 3rd place, just pushed it a little too much. and the front just tucked.
20 minutes later after a roll of duc tape and a new peg and clip on, i managed to get out into the b final in the open and finished third to two r6's one of which was ex r6 racer ross richards- so in the end it was a good weekend
fairing is in exeter being repaired as i speak so bike will be good as new for pembrey in two weeks.
