No, Its more of a case of bumping into each other whilst we are up there.

I am driving up the night before then staying at a friends for a couple of nights. by lucky coincidence I know someone who only lives a few miles from the track.

good to see you deej - did you go out in the afternoon, I called it a day the second the rain came down, hang around for a while to see if it would dry out but no chance.

Nice morning for it though!

i was the first one out after the lunch mate, had the track to myself for about a lap and a half, only trouble was it was peeing it down and i still had my slicks fitted. was kinda fun but stupid at the same time. gave it some down the start straight and it span up and nearly spat me off so i called it a day and came home too.

the morning was stunning and ace fun, roll on the next one

yep sure is the oregon atc2k. sound is a issue as the codec for the sound isnt compatible with vista for some reason hence the lack of sound,works on my mates and sounds awesome.
i think pete wileman doesnt like yellow bikes as there wasnt that many of me but then we were riding close to each other that he may have been unable to get a good shot in.
talking of parcels my crg finally dropped through the door yesterday,why do they always arrive a day late
