Cadwell...

No, not me riding, but met up with Paul at Cadwell this morning. Was great to catch up briefly on such a gorgeous day, the circuit looking as beautiful as ever in the sunshine:

Thanks for the kind words, fellas.

All ok here - was great to meet up with Paul today and of course visit the 'local' track. Some wonderful memories of watching the racing here in the early-mid 80's when I was first stationed at Cranwell. Did a couple of bike trackdays here (when I had my first 1100S actually) and in my Caterham 7 which was a riot.

Fabulous circuit, even better when it's only 30 mins away.

Great pics, the only time I have been to Cadwell was in 76/77 when I was stationed at Binbrook. Have seen Mick Grant, Barry Sheen, Phil Read and others.

I first raced at Cadwell in '76 and started doing the 1000k's endurance race series for proddie bikes there in '77.
Did a 10 hour race there as well either 77 or 78 too on an RD 400.
Could manage just about 50 minutes before the fuel ran out and switch to reserve then come in for the second rider to take over.
Them were the days.

Strewth John - the thought of a 1000k race at Cadwell!!!

Brilliant shot and not using the mountain I see, just the short circuit eh

[Paul]

Thanks for coming along Richard and taking those great pictures. I managed to survive the day unscathed, and had a grand old time. I took some video in the afternoon, so I'll put up some of that in a day or three.

Cheers,

Paul

Cracking photos as usual

Just posted a video of one of my laps on YouTube here. I don't think I'll be troubling the BSB grid in the near future, but I enjoyed it!

Cheers,

[Paul]

Sorry, I'm new to publishing videos on you tube... I think I may have fixed it now. Can you try again please?

Cheers,
