and a real pleasure to meet you guys too. Many thanks for the hospitality, leastways, despite communication issues, I assume everyone was being friendly as no one hit me which is a bit of a result given how far north we were!

Nice to be in a group that let me feel like a youngster too!

When I walked into the garage I wasn't sure if I'd booked onto a Saga trackday at first biggrin...

R1 Loon told me now that he knows he's 3 seconds quicker in Inters, he's going to book into novices and go for the lap record..

I'm not that old, I'm normally the youngster in the group!

Bit of coaching sounds like the tonic you need Loon. Don't let one or two bad experiences put you off. You've clearly developed significantly to get this level and I remember the way you were buzzing after day 1 at Anglesey. There's nothing at all stopping you developing further, if you want to that is.
Hmmmmm. I might do that and actually listen this time!

The experiences weren't bad at all, just me not being able to do the stuff that I know the bike can. The passing did get to me a little, as I was going slower than normal into corners expecting someone to come squeezing through just as I tipped in.
