    Couldn't see a post up for this date.

    So if your going come along and say hello. There will be a few of us there, and it will be the first outing on the new track bike for me.

    I'm in inters so if you see a slow fat Cnut on a black Blade come give me a tow.

    Just be aware that on the 26 March Thundersport are racing so you might find a lot of guys going for an extra days testing before the race weekend.

    Could be the chance of some really fast guys in the inters group if they couldn't get a spot in advanced. I don't know how booked up it will be.

    Yup also more than a few guys heading from Donny straight to Oulton for the NL racing on the 25th.

    Not too fussed though as it tends to be the same at Donny anyway. Quick lads, but they tend to give you room when passing.

    We're at the test day at Oulton on 23rd and were considering napping to Donny for the 24th and back for the race on 25th but just figured that with the weather and it being our first race weekend that something was bound to go wrong if we did.

    Aye it's been a while for me too mate. Middle of October I think.

    Hoping to get out on the road bike before Donny if possible. Weather depending.

    Damn good to be back on track again.

    Bloody cold though. Had snot running off my nose after the first session out.

    Bike is going amazing though and handling is superb. Can't ask for much better. Though could do with this rain pissing off for after lunch.
