I really should ad that prolapse is a gent and all of this is in good fun he's not as bad as the photos suggest and ive probably taken this far too far...
No, no, it's perfectly normal to start three threads, doctor several images, and dig around the forum so you could quote without context to imply hubris (where none exists)...

Its easy to sit and take the piss from the safety of a keyboard, I would suggest that the ones taking the piss that have not yet been on track should have a go first before they chuck stones.
well said does that mean I can still take the piss though?prolapse isn't as bad as ive made him out to be that's twice ive been out with him and he hasn't binned it.

k me there goes mcguiness and Mackenzie's boy.after 5 morning/evening sessions (about 5 hours track time in total) and 3 full day ones (about 8 hours on track in total) = 13/14 ish hours, this is my progress with my riding position. I've used many tips from phers and Niall Mackenzie, john McGuiness was s
t.this was well after the apex
one going in
and another crap one
for some reason I never get photos of me in corners so excuse the crap photos
the biggest thing for me that worked was sitting a bit further back and using the outer arm to "grasp" the tank more and dropping my inside, this seemed to result in me getting my knee down without even trying to and it being a bit more smooth looking. Mackenzie and McGuiness both noticed a huge difference from the last time (I think they just say that to be nice) im miles of being fast, I went out with BN and got a bit embarrassed but my pace is consistent and getting there a bit more each time.
looking at them I really need to get my head down more where the mirror is next, any other pointers?
