So then,

Who's doing a track day any time soon? I'm up for another blast in the coming month or so.

Are there any where the Aprilia lot are going? The Falco needs some fresh air.

I'll play nicely, I promise...

You'll need studded tyres by then! Brrr!

Is the national circuit the one that cuts out the Melbourne Loop?

C'mon,

Who fancies doing a track day? There must be someone out there who wants to have some fun!

Mr Venjer? Diablic? Singlesman? Screeeech? Daz? Where's the spirit of adventure then?

Hi Ben, just in the process of putting the bike back into road trim, because as a track bike I can't afford to keep her in tyres. One set per outing, be they inters or slicks. This makes every trackday a £300.00 event, at least. So, soon to be available, one cheap Falco plus loads of useful bits, nearly new airkit, barnett clutch, wheels, trackday bodywork etc. If I can get another bike sorted soon I'll be there.

August 24, Saturday. Sounds like the one you are lookking for Ben! I'm not afraid of you.

Sandia Motorsports Track--Albuquerque New Mexico.

Get a magazine to pay for it, eh?!

Not the track to head to after transport to the States though Not enough room for the Falco to even stretch its legs!

It's a shame the flying green meanie isn't going to be shaming all and sundry in the future...

Well, hope you sell it and get something soon. Make sure you keep coming back here though!

Bank holiday monday at the end of august - Rockingham with Motorcycle city. Its a more novice orientated day so I am going with a couple of geezers that have never done it before.

To be honest, as long as I do not miss a days work (so weekdays are out) I am game for another trackday with you guys. Ben name the day and place and you are welcome to kick my arse.

Ben et all,

Falco's finally in for a new Starter cluch - mechanic's on holiday till next week but parts on order. As soon as he's back I should know when I'll be back on the road and will be looking at a few more track days before end of year, weekdays not a problem. Also know a few others up for it, one on a Mille - Steve of Harry Nash.
The last week of August is also out for me - got software to deliver 1st Sep - anything else 3rd week Aug and rest of Sep maybe Oct if I'm feeling brave, I'm in.

cheers all,
D
