    I'm having new rubbers Saturday am, new tyres and damp roads is not a good combination, I'll see how it goes?

    Nice to meet you Michael, we had a nice ride out to bed in my new rubber and a steady ride home, I managed a couple of iPhone recordings if you pm me your email address?

    If you around our area give up a call.

    Seems like a nice track, I reckon I will have to try it out one of these days ;)
    I took a few picks on my phone, but didn't come you well :(
    Nice to meet another forum user, Michael, shame about your wet morning session mate :(

    One of the worst tracks I've ridden was Rockingham. Boring and featureless. Did the California Superbike School there. If you've never ridden a track like Oulton, Brands or Cadwell then you don't know what you're missing! Trees, lakes and undulating track, it's just like being on your favourite road! No offence to you guys, I just don't like the track.

    Well if we all liked the same thing life would be boring ;)
    I keep my eyes fixed on the track so don't really care about lakes, trees and other scenery, but undulating is nice :)
