    I'm hoping to do this one or maybe oulton on the 26th. I really want to do donnington it's just a shame about the distance from home, but it's never going to get any closer!

    haha yea,i prefer the idea of not crashing in them again though :)

    yea was lucky again considering how far the bike slid,GB bullet sliders have saved the bike twice now from a lot more damage,stick out far enough to stop major damage,but not so far to dig In and flip the bike,these fairings have been down 3 times now,and are still useable,but looking a little tired so replacements are on order.

    Good to hear your ok scooby, never want to hear one of the boys coming off...

    I was looking at your bullet sliders at Oulton, i think there the ones i will go with as I'm not keen on those huge things R&G do, more like ground anchors......

    just wasn't really concentrating,was just pootling along,more looking at the track to see how.where it was wet,coming out of redgate (turn 1) rear must have just touched the outside kerb which was wet,and off I came.
