I will be there on the R1 and the F1 sidecar.
Pratice is first thing saturday morning then the racing starts about 10.30 11.00 clock. Then on the sunday no practice racing starts about 10 if i remember correctly . It is difficult to put actual race times up as it all depends how many stoppages there are.

Hello Flute. "AKA" the busiest man in pit lane. :) I spent the second halve of the meeting watching with MJ43 & two brolly girls in a hot tub he has on the roof of his motor home. :^o Truth is I went around the back of the course on the grassy knoll, got frozen, then the rain hit. So neither you nor MJ got as much as a bye or leave. Trudged to the van, & left. The racing was very good , got my pecker up :idea: thinking Ive got to do a track day this year Won't be on a fecking R1 though, yi crazy bugger. :lol: Alan.

Good to meet you - hope you haven't got the cold I picked up over the weekend :(

Need to sort out getting these barrels and pistons up to you some time.

MJ . Likewise!....But 3 daughters, & a wife, 4 onto 1. never a good ratio. :lol: & no I didn't get the cold but I had one of those headache's That feels like a G clamp tightened across your head for 4 days. Enjoyed the day though..... Any joy the rest of the meeting ?......................................Flute yi crazy bugger ! I guess I must be wrong but 1,000 cc bikes Don't look FUN to ride. every body seems to be fighting to keep the front end down, heavy heavy braking, squirming out of corners. Not for me , 600 yes / 750cc max. Anyway. Hope your a good fast healer. Good Luck.........Alan
