Well it will soon be another sunny Saturday at Oulton Park again. I am sure I will have as much fun as I did last month. You lot dont know what you are missing.

Sunny days on the track for less than 50 spondoolies. I just cannot resist.

If I have some spare cash I will be doing this aswell

Might even do it on the falco if the weather looks good

I'll do one when the temperature rises above -10. I only have 2nd hand slicks so dont fancy damp icy slippy Oulton

On the plus side, I now own a bike camera and recorder so you'll be able to see yourself coming past me at 160

It went well once they let us on track (11.30ish) although it was a sunny day there was a frost on the track. As the organsier rightly pointed out "you don't come to the track, the track comes to you"
Druids corner was iffy at times as it refused to dry out but the old 207/208 tyres gave me plenty of warning which was scary at first but you get used to it and give it that little bit more. I had a few moments but stayed on the bike and away from the tarmac, mud, grass and tyre walls. I have a thing about them(especially at Cadwell).
The little bandit performed excellent and it has proven itself yet again. Hasseling some of the larger machines at the corners.

If I had the money I would be at every track day that I had the time for. SOOO much fun to be had
