Hi all... Thought I'd post some pics from the day! Really had a great time, bike was setup by an ex-racer which made a good difference...

Cool. You could probably do with moving your inside foot just before you turn in, otherwise you will start wearing through your boots! Try and also get some coaching on helping you move your body off the centreline of the bike - you'll get your knee down in no time, and also find that you can tip the bike over a lot more, helping your corner speed.

Cheers for the advice, I noticed I got my foot down on most corners

I guess I'm not hanging off the bike far enough? I just shift my bum off the bike with my shoulder down - maybe I'm not moving my arms off enough or something, perhaps they're remaining in place...? I know it's not necessary but I REALLY want to get my knee down!!
