It was a fabulous sunny warm day at Donington yesterday! Who would have thought. I took Slicks, Inters and Wets to cover all bases and it was lovely and sunny all day.
I think it would be impossible to explain the shear violence of riding a modern 1000cc Superbike on slicks on a race circuit to a lay person. How is something that is so much fun still allowed in this PC world?
An friend of mine hired an R6 and bought a set of BMW leathers for the day. Low speed spill at the Melbourne Loop and they split open like a crisp packet (broke a rib). I mentioned "buy Helmets from a Helmet manufacturer, Leathers from a Leather manufacturer etc... not a corporation" in a supportive sage like voice :courage: Imagine if he went down at Craners! He also lost his ?1800 excess as well to add salt to the wound.
Always next time buddy. 97! Only bikes I was involved then were mountain bikes haha.
I?m going to do another in June I think. But yes good day and FE seems pretty laid back.
Enjoy Oulton, it?s a bit far for me to do in one day. I?d need to camp (hotel) over I think.
