Still grinning from ear to ear. Absolutely loved the weekend as normal and every year it just get's better, meeting familiar faces and new ones. Even the torrential rain on Sat morning didn't dampen any spirits. Couple of really great sessions riding with Oliver (bikemonkey) that really were a real pleasure.

Huge thanks to Tony (drunkn munky) for all the help and work he's put into the RVF, a couple of niggles but it rode really well and was on full song all weekend. Looking forward to developing it further over the coming years.

When's our next trackday then?

I wouldn't be able to make a European one, already be getting for Cadwell next year!
Tim and I had a good time, good to see everyone, still had a good time despite bike woes.

It would be good if you had a working bike for the whole weekend so that we could get to ride with each other out on track.

I don't think it would be a 400GB meet if something didn't go wrong with my licence/bike/me!

Simon, if that Euro trip includes Spain, I´ll be glad to help arranging whatever.

you should have taken the RD350 out for a session or two - that would have made you appreciate how bikes "used" to ride and handle. it would also make you realize how heavy bikes are these days too

I had a bad feeling Sunday morning, the thought of stacking it or being crashed into just spooked me.
Thank you for be very generous offer though.
