    It's looking a little better - forecast is for patchy rain in the afternoon so could be lucky. But then again when was the last time you saw an accurate weather forecast in this country?

    Cheers - I want to do at least one a month so let me know if you are up for something. I fancy the full Brands circuit - only done the indy, or Silverstone.

    Managed to get 3 dry sessions, a damp and a wet.....

    Overall considering the first time I had ridden the bike or the circuit I didn't feel it went too bad. Also managed to get the suspension sorted - £50 for an initial set up then they tweaked it after each session until it was cock on so well happy and well worth the money.
