Trackdays Brands Indy Sun March 15th

I am really not expecting the race weekend to go ahead, even though club racing doesn’t get many spectators there are still more than 500 people present, so would be considered a mass public gathering. There is also the element of strain on medical services as race weekends tend to throw up major trauma cases due to crashes.

It’s into Druids mate, and he did pass me!

 

Yeah bloody show off! To be honest mate was a first ride of the year on a new bike for me, I had a chat with the instructor who was in same garage as the suspension guy, he had done several Spanish winter events & this was 3rd UK event for him! Not saying he wasn’t quick mind, but there’s little substitute for seat time.

 

Unfortunately the only thing I have in common with Marquez is my race number

 

Which is why I ended up having the race number, so as not to confuse anyone with different number on bike & lid, that’s gone out the window though as my new lid is a Cluzel rep complete with #16 ... can’t have that race number it’s already allocated... doh!

 

Yes mate, love the Shoei NXR, really comfortable & they crash well, as tested by yours truly ... twice in the Marquez rep & it still passes race scrutineering .
