Well folks we got here safely which is pretty good as T&C were involved. Had an afternoon / evening on the lash with T&c, Keith, Mex Paul, Roxy, CJJ and Kwakamat.
Carol and myself managed to get out for a meal as the rest were incapable. Early reports sugeest 2 of the 4 that went for an Indian couldn't even eat it. No sign of them today.
Roxy had an early Birthday celebration BTW.
Oh it's HOT!!
Bit windy though.

Baz we did watch the Spanish GPon BBC2 in an English bar!!
Great day today. No TDR's down although someone tried their best and went through a gap in the tyre wall and over scrubland. They even got it on video.
Great circuit but this morning was very windy.
Sitting having a quick beer now. Furrther reports tomorrow.

Nice save :) The deep gravel is hard to ride though.
Were the other riders on a go slow ? How come you were so much faster, wrong group ? |

FFS Bongo! That was too close a call! Really bice save though, I think I'd have given up and dropped it when I got to the scrub.
I wonder if that gap in the barrier is deliberate? |

Well done Bongo probably the only place on the track that the gap in the tyre wall works in line of exit, you were going well too at around 1:55.

I'm just a happy chappy!
