Fair enough. Perhaps Yazza, Tom and Jazoli? Or some of the others from the weekend.

And no one better say it's too far.

I made a 500 mile trip for a trackday in feb
I'm oot, bike needs a lot of fixing and I don't have the time at the minute so Croft will be my next time out in April.

How much work is there?

Did look fairly bad at the time.

It needs quite a lot,the fairings and seat unit are trashed, it needs a top fairing bracket, right clip on and throttle tube, exhaust, screen, rear subframe, generator cover, exhaust hanger, master cylinder and brake lever etc etc etc, I have managed to get some bits for the rebuild but it's going to take a while to sort.

Patch the fairings up with fibreglass they don't need to be perfect.

Loon - are you going into the new season with your raggy old fairings?

Yes. I've not got round to fitting the new ones yet and not having them painted until I've done a dry run on fitment first.

MTB does a good paint job

I will, the top parts of my fairing are still in the grass at oulton so some creative modelling is on the cards.

Anyone else fancy Anglesey.

Don't want to be there myself all weekend.

I've seen the other dates but it's too much of a commitment for me to do one midweek date. It works out at almost 3 days holidays I'd need to take.

I repeat a rock disco and we can roll our easter eggs down the hill into the beach.

Anglesey is my favourite track I've been to by far so far anyway. Wish I could go to this. Finally pick my track bike up this weekend but I need some time to get some new fairings and get them painted etc

Has it got fairings? If so why the stress. It's not a beauty parade.

Wtf is it always a struggle for me to get folk to a track.

Prolapse is married now with a kid on the way so he's dead to the world.

V60marko only rides in the dry so won't go to tracks that might rain or that isn't Knockhill

Glasgow R1 Davie nailed knockhill in 3 sessions on his first time out then crashed and I haven't heard of him again.

I'm actually pretty mellow in the flesh I mean come on.
