    Yes superdan mate, was flying on that bike, and a top bloke.... I got past him just before his big one at Snet :( and he was playing catch up all season... But went well at cadders...

    I personally can't stand the place but that's flying mate, nice one. I need to getting head round it and into the 30's but more importantly actually enjoy it.... I honestly hate it ha....

    And I don't think ill be waiting, first time back on bike since, erm donny... So will be taking it steady ;)

    I love Cadwell! Think it's a bit of a marmite track though. I'm there on 13-14th, Dan is there on 14th for OPL.
    Yeah Dan proper trashed that V4 at Snett. First ever race too :( he then binned it again at Cadwell on a trackday coming into the Mountain after my endurance team m8s shock snapped and he went down. Dan had a bit of target fixation and followed him off. V4s don't seem to crash that well :( and he bruised himself when he hit the Armco. He's a good rider but doesn't seem to have much luck with crashes.

    Marmite alright.... Even jase beat me there ha ha ;)

    Rember seeing the photos of that crash... Even the air box was ripped out. Certainly didn't come off well. And remember the vid of the cadwell one.... Like you say bad luck but he was decent on that bike.

    Hope this season goes better for him. Is he racing again?

    He was talking of doing about doing Cadwell round and maybe Oulton next weekend, although he's never ridden it. I told him to give it a go as its a cracking circuit.
