Evening type thing at Brands Indy on 28th July with No Limits booked.

Never done an evening one before. Hopefully basically just a chilled out roundabout session before a cold one on the way home as befits our balmy summer's evenings.

I'm booked in for this one too and as long as there are no red flags they are normally pretty chilled out.

£75 for the evening session - cannot afford the holiday time so I'm sneaking off work early - ssssh! I think my mate has booked us into the slower of the two groups which suits me fine as I'll be using some comically old & knackered tyres.

Evening as well? See you there, which bike will you be on? I'll be on a 98 R1 with a blue tank, white bodywork with a No.6 on it.

I'll try to get there a bit earlier as two other mates booked the day session instead - it's like herding cats sometimes!

[moanthebairns]

There's something in the mist!!!!

[moanthebairns]

Still. Least it's not snowing.

[mckeann]

Oh fk, sooooo glad I didn't book on for this one after all

[gwm]

You must be getting good at wet track riding now

[Pebbles167]

Those conditions look terrible! Worst I've had is a damp track on a sunny day with a few puddles.

Does it slow you down much having the mist? Or do you know it well enough.

[moanthebairns]

It's reverse I've done it once before I haven't a fking clue where it goes.

I keep going into hairpin sticking out my right knee then realising it's left.

Haha I have no sense of direction so to switch a track like that would have me screwed!

I Did my first track day this year at Snett a few weeks ago in the wet. Was spooky at first but ok once you trust the tyres https://youtu.be/f9S5AN3Ec3E

[Birky_41]

Cadwell 10th August anyone fancies it?

Im on reserve for Snett thought I got in but fully booked nearly a month before the date! 24th July if I can get in

If all goes to plan and I can get it ready in time I'll be on a 98 Fireblade. If not I'll be on an my usual RSV R Mille and my lad will be on Scotts old Lava Red R1. I generally get there around 4ish and I think we're both in the Inters/fast group
