Nice one Steve

Cool! Look forward to seeing your updates. What is your racing number?

steeevvvooo · 03-11-2011, 11:42 PM

cheers Rob.

Not got as far as a number! I've paid a deposit on a bike, but need to join DSC, join hotrax, join ACU, have an eye test, do a basic course, collect the bike, get a trailer, set it up, learn to ride the thing... (not necessarily in that order)

maybe I haven't thought this through properly

Nice one, Steve.
Looking forward to following your progress.
Bizarrely, I was almost tempted myself in a moment of madness while watching the DD races at Castle Combe this year. Fear and lack of funds saved the day though (lack of talent wasn't enough on its own). Maybe you'll be an inspiration for next year.
Hope to catch a few rounds this year...might pop in the paddock to say hello.
Results don't matter much, its the taking part that really counts. I think you were right to go for it this year rather than wait.
