A grand day out

Another fantastic track day at Donny on Tuesday with Haden. Wall to wall sunshine all day.
Finally plucked up the courage to put the HP2 on track only to get blitzed by Haden all day
Haden you are a mad bastard
Most of the bikes there were track bikes (even in the Novice group) which didn't inspire a great deal of confidence but managed to keep out of their way mostly.
Anyway here's a piccy just to prove I was there. Couple of videos to follow....when I work out how to edit them

Steve you know me as well as my brother, that's me, quiet and unassuming:-)
To put things into perspective, it takes slot of nerve. to thrash around a track on a bike worth as much as Greg's ( and he wasn't hanging around either) its easy to "have a go" on a bike worth tuppence happeny
All in all a cracking day, smashing track. Nice pic Greg.

I do hope that even though it was off the queens highway you were both setting a good example and not exceeding 60mph of course

Quite right too Steve, and down Dunlop straight, two lots of 60mpg were adhered too..
Have to admit though, down the straights the grunt of Gregs HP2 was quite something, I also got left for dead by another mates 600 Thundercat, pinned throttle or not, I was left to tuck in behind the screen and enjoy a good book

Nice one Andy. Novice, inter or fast group? Nice to see the ladies on track mixing it with the boys as well.

Lol mate - inters! It was a mile race and I was a minute behind the fatest bloke who clocked 4.10. They put you in heats according to your given predicted times so each heat was fairly close. That lass beat me this time although I beat her when we did a road mile. What you can't see is a 13 year old lad in the group too - I was slightly relieved to not be beaten by him, although it wouldn't have been the first time. :-0
