Not a lot I can add to Kwackys write up... only to say how surprised I was with the amount of road bikes that arrived on trailers and in vans. For a road bike only TD.
Never been on track before at Donington, So why should must first trip to a new track be any different, yep it rained. Happened at Brands, Silverstone, Almeria... lol, yep even Spain, and now at Donington.
The upside I can get an idea of where I should be going by following the trails ha ha. Too many people falling off right out the gate, i had a few slips, but as the track dried I found out why. I should have paid more attention to the tyres on the bike before embarking on a track day. In short the front tyre was not the correct shape, more like a fifty pence piece. Decided I was not forking out silly money for a tyre just for a couple of sessions, so called it a day early. Watched Kwacky enjoy himself for the remainder.
Never been here before, but would come back again, nice track, NL had a good set up, easy sign on, not to much waffle in the briefing. I will post up a little vid as I did stick the camera on the bike, most of the footage seems to be standing around waiting for the track to open again. However what I do have shows I would need to use some better lines ha ha ha ha, i could see so many places where my line slowed me right up.
All in all I was glad I made the trip and got to have a little ride around the place. Hopefully a little clip to post soon
Oh yes and the ride home was fun, NOT! wet and cold... head down and went for it

crap front tyre and all, it was that bad that the bike felt like I was on a rumble strip all the way home.
