Agree...I only do these stunts nowdays when there's no other vehicles in sight....like lifting the front wheel at 100kmp...

Even so mate just be fucking careful, yes you probably know what you're doing but it only takes one twat to ruin your day

Well I think that road I was mentioning is even more challenging than a race track...you never know if the car that passed before you cut the corners and layed a fresh pile of gravel  in the corner and you have on coming cars to deal with...so no room for mistakes...not for the faith of heart...

Don't be fucking stupid, the track is the only place for dicking around not the road

You got a garage as well , I don't know about Mallory but at some circuits it can be a bit of a bun fight.

I was first on the gate at 6am today, and yeah it's first come first served with the garage spaces at most tracks

I'm affaid there's no such tracks around here...the only place I can think of ..it's this place about and hour away...it's got some nice corners and hairpine corners...but it's on a legal road and you have to time it ..so your not blocked off by slow moving cars....or cops...

And yet more reasons he can't back up the claim 'HE' made.

Well you're claim that you'd wipe the floor with me on the track is null and void because you can't back it up.

So hush yourself lad

No......because you didn't stop! Despite the fact that you knew something wrong.

Your rear wheel could have been loose for all you knew!

It wasn't a loose wheel feel nor a spun tyre I know what they feel like.

End of the day I only ruined my day and not somebody else's so there is that

Is there any scrutineering before your allowed on track ?

Just a noise test to pass thats all, and it was a 102db day and the bike tested at 105db so they don't really care about that it seems

This concerns me as well!

You'd noticed something wasn't right but you didn't pull over.

Oil on the track is a serious hazard......not just for you but for everybody else there.

Well I didn't know it was leaking oil did I, I was putting it down to slightly cold tyres since we'd been sat in the queue for around 5 minutes waiting to get on track and there was abit of mist in the air it wasn't until I got back to the pits that I noticed it was leaking. 

So it's not something that I would have picked up on whilst riding it

You came off your bike and knackered your thumb? What sort of useless tosspiece does that? 

This kind....

Not just that but also my shoulder, it's fecking agony now but I'll be ok in a few days

So what have you learned from this Rich?

Check the bike over more thoroughly next time.... and don't leave it 18 months between days out....

Well I'm pretty sure I wouldn't came off the bike...I know my limits and  know what my bike can handle ...you leave me no choice to make a video of me riding the KTM...

But it must be on track as that's where you boasted your prowess. 

Also the off was caused by an oil leak on to the rear tyre.

Not many people wouldn't have come off due to this

Still more than Six and Busa combined though Dave!

This year I've done just over 500 miles.

I'll be dropping the van off then resting my shoulder as much as possible other than that nothing planned

With him being layed down in the ditch...I would have ran circles around him for sure..lol.

Hmm OK, well come put yourself to the test big lad, all you're doing is talking about it, we should have renamed you "the theory man"

The camera doesn't work in the rain 

No its not raining here atm, and yes I believe there will be video of it on the camera

At least you're OK Rich......but I doubt your missus is going to be too impressed! Even more so because you've just had a new addition to the family.

One thing I'll say, and it's up to you if you take it on board! I've always believed in fate, and that things happen for a reason.

I'd take this as a warning and seriously think whether you should continue to do this trackday stuff.

If you were my age then the pressure isn't so much.......after all, the words "Life in Prison" doesn't exactly put the fear of God into us these days.

Your circumstances are very different......so I'd think long and hard about it.

It's only cosmetic damage bar the oil leak, which I now believe was there before today as it tried spitting me off at the exit of gerards at the start of the 2nd lap then at the hairpin it was skipping and jumping about just trying to slow down then it did it again slowing down for gerards. 

But shit happens, I'll get it patched up and get out on another in due course

It's been slightly misty but not bad, but I've not had the best start, it's pissing out oil somewhere and I didn't realise and it coated the rear tyre and 

yeah I've ended up binning it....

not much damage apart from the front brake lever guard and rear tyre needs replacing. 

Apart from that all is good, I've hurt my thumb and right shoulder is very sore.

Now just need to investigate this oil leak and fix that before I decide to do another day

And she's ready 

So it seems bigus dickus has gone quiet now im doing a trackday tomorrow, could he be planning on putting his money/ego to the test or will he be too scared and bottle it?

And as its not true without pics.....

Ta Da!

Well I've just been out and fixed the camera to the bike on the top yoke it seems to have a decent enough view through the screen and not too much speedo and rev counter. 

So let's see what I get tomorrow, I'll be taking the other mounts so I can always move the camera if I'm not happy with it

Also it is bhp per ton and Busa is a fat cunt.

Really looking forward to getting back on the track, its been way too long
