Got some friends who are there today & they've just put on Facebook that it's been a wet morning, a few red flags & someone airlifted to hospital ..... hope its none of the NWB lads.
It wasn't wet in the morning, there was drizzle for one lap but nothing to make a difference. Think the air ambulance was just a precaution and pretty sure it wasn't a NWB'er. I had to leave at lunch but it was good up until then. A lot of red flags though, you can tell it's only April lol.
im on the island at the moment too . I popped over and had a look, fast group was stopped every session for a red flag up till dinner time! it was chilly but fine and bright only stayed for an hour but it was a busy day looked sold out
Well well well..... First track day = grin factor! Had a massive amount of fun and improved in the areas i set out to improve.. *goes to rebook anglesey and leave road riding*
Got a few pics myself. looked good fun! My dad got some pics on his camera so when i get to the computer at home i will send you them mate
Dunno who told you that-it was bone dry all day-there was a slight threaten of rain but nothing at all really there was only one red flag in fast group all day-you must of been watching inters ! I had an indifferent day at anglesey yesterday,managed to get a spot in fast group at signing on and for the morning was struggling linking everything together and finding the right lines from peel to the start/finish straight grabbed an instructor who pointed out that pretty much every corner is a very late apex ! By the afternoon i was starting to pick up the pace and even getting a few overtakes in-well chuffed for me got down to 1'50-1'52's so happy with that I'm still a load of crap at left hand corners and probably always will be ! Today was a complete no-go-absolutely leathering it down with standing water on track and i was feeling the pain still from my recent off so called it a day and came home. A few racer boys got out there in the wet but my theory is that unless you need to practice whats the point going out getting soaked and not enjoying it ? Next TD 2nd May at Oulton
Ps banksy sorry we left in a rush. Had a little argument with my tent and just got soaked so fucked off home. Almost fell asleep on the way tho :/
how the fcuk do you fall asleep on a bike !! I wondered where you went mate-i had a shower and food and you'd gone ! Good improvement Elliott-just remember to concentrate whats in front not your speedo or lifesavers or looking at the side. Well in mate.. :thumbsup: Now is a good time to get really friendly with your bank manager as well
Felt my eyes getting heavier and started to play the how long can i relax game, tried to pull over at maccies for a rest but the misses carried on so no stops for me... Got home and tried to watch the GP only to fall asleep just as the warm up lap finished :| And cheers chris the advice i received at the track was priceless, i really felt i improved lap on lap. Didnt feel any quicker from 3rd-8th session but felt so much smoother and more in tune with bike/track. I quite often complain about the SV suspension on the road but maybe it was anglesey's amazing track, the bike just had no issues. I couldnt have wished for anything better tbh great weather, great bike and fantastic track!!! As i've said ill defo be booking in there again
