is this a plan then, ? were doing a track day in may, ?
i cant do the 19th, iam down for leading a ride-out in the evening, but would be up for eney outher day.
iam not bothered about the venue, oulton, angelsey or donni are all good, but i dont realy want the nutters group,
i always feel compelled to ride to my limit ( and sometimes beyond it ) the inters and novice are always more chilled.
is eneyone else interested, ? it has to be better than working.
brads.

TEN, ! TEN,! we have difficulty getting ten for the nurburgring trip, !
the problems of peoples work commitments makes arranging track-days difficult, so for this reason and the fact that
iam antisocial i tend to do them alone.
the number of members interested in track-days is quite small when compered to the size of the membership list.
.
imo to meny members see no shame in owning a sports bike with one and a half inchs of chicken strip on the tyres.

yo brads
yep i agree with the work thing but if you give enough notice then things can be arranged… as a past road rider with lets say intermediate riding ability i found that once i got over the enitial worry of going round one of the best circuits in britan {oulton park }
by dinner time i didnt want to come of the track… what iam saying is that we all dont need to be rossis to get out there on the circuit ,as iam sure we all ride to our own ability and in a safe manner .. nobody wants to go home with a bust bike and broken bones so no matter if you have a 2 inch chicken strip or a squared of tyre iam sure that once you,ve had a go you wont be able to wait for the next one and iam sure that its an experence you wont be able to forget
and you can tell your mates in the pub how fast you were … the more you drink the quicker you become.

Oulton is my choice and I won't crash this time, it's not my turn!
I went to Anglesey last year with Mark and a few from the club. There will be a mini write up in the next mag but I found it too short and twisty for a 1000cc bike.
We can ask at the next meeting but I am happy to go ahead and book it.

Can we agree on the No Limits Tues 9th June as any later is getting close to the Nurburgring trip.
The only other question is which group. It's either fast or inters…which one is for nutters?

Well it had to happen didnt it, one of our more experienced crash club members has lobbed it again ! .
this time however it was the tarmac on the left hander at cascades which came under close scrutiny, on a previous visit it was the right hander at lodge. a nice attempt at balancing up the gravel rash on each side of the bike.
Not saying who, but he did say it wasnt his turn.
sorry matey couldnt resist. brads.

Thanks Mark for your kind words.
I was wondering wot with you being the fountain of knowledge just how many left handers are there at Oulton?
This is how it's done…go out on cold tyres..nearly bin it the first time into Cascades..do a second lap and bin it anyway!
10 out of 10 for effort but no points for style, although if the photographer got it I may post the pic.
Oooh just thought am I the founder member of the 2009 Crash Club?

Can you just clarify if its one 'crash club' t-shirt per crash or is it one per member…?
Im just a little worried some of our bretheren wont fit through the workies doors if they try wearing all theirs at once!
