Bloody weather

I have a track day tomorrow and the weather looks to be the worse it has been in weeks, not going to take the Honda in the wet as don't feel like i have done enough miles on it for dodgy conditions, will be on the ZX9R, was looking forward to it but not much fun riding in the rain.

It's given gale force winds and heavy rain

I'd take a jet ski

 

and maybe some arm bands

 

Where you going...Brands?

 

It's bollocks weather been good in wk then normal weather returns ...if it was me and it's like this blowing a gale heavy rain I would not bother .....I know it's had earned money spent for the day but that outweighs smashing up the bike or you....

 

sorry it was Brands, made it through the day, was a few off but thankfully not me, someone come off at clearways and promptly rode his bike back to the pits pissing oil out that stopped it for 40 minutes, i had a couple of slips but wasn't much fun and bloody cold.

Good to hear Pete FairPlay for going ....

 

Yeah shite weather today.
Hats off to you for carrying on with it.

 

Yep agreed matey, living round the corner from Brands it’s been a shite day.
Sorts out the men from the pussies though, had some of my favourite track days on a streaming wet Brands

High 5 my friend, well done.

 

High five indeed. It takes a special effort to take it to the road in the wet, let alone pushing it on a track day. Great way to elevate one's experience.

On a subject change, whilst most of you are at work on this nice sunny day (W. Mids) I'm going to take it to the dry roads for half a blast!

 

Weather looks OK for the weekend around mid day just about double temps good enough for a bimble that back in time for Moto GP.....and asaints v Spurs ....so cover off ...suit charged...

 

NS400R day for me. Have to burn off some fuel before it goes to Dream Machine for some serious paint restoration.

 

Great idea that turned out to be.

Got home from gym on a nice sunny morning.
Checked weather apps= sunny until 6 pm;
Removed 3 covers and opened double gates;
Wheeled aprilia out of the way;
Removed battery tender lead from NS;
Race inside to answer phone call;
Get back outside and there's a massive bad-ass cloud overhead starting to sprinkle all over the baby ape. WTF?
Put everything back together and head inside for a day in front of the TV.

 

Same here went for a pedal 1st thing wet everywhere but drying due to high winds ...now hissed it down ...gutted.so Moto GP it is then
