Brands desmodue footage
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDCLZ...ature=youtu.be
As mentioned to a couple of people recently, motors TV coverage of the first round of the desmodue championship. The program is aired on sky tv chanel (motors TV) and shows just now quick some of these guys are. The fast boys are lapping brands hatch in 54sec ish... on a 63 bhp bike! I'm number 82, on the monster dark black with yellow frame scheme, red black and white leathers and white, red and black lid. Or, if you don't pick me out (about 3 or 4 from the back coming round the 1st bend on the outside) IM THE ONE WHO TAKES THE CARPARK ROUTE (watch the video and you'll understand ) |

Well held, Sir.
Looks like fantastic fun. And that green/silver bike of Mr Palmers is absolutely gorgeous. |

I think the footage was from the second race, so i should have known better, but I had a decent start and got a little over excited.
I've had practice, after doing the same on some "parade laps" at modified live last year! Totally agree about how nice that bike is tho |

oooops
i think you need to look at steering the bike where you want to go, not where you went last time!
Good Luck mate

As much as we take the mick, you know we're only jealous for not having the balls to do it like you have.
You're my new hero.

Lol, what she said!
Well done Steve (the park detour looked lovely by the way!) Let us know where the rounds are so we can cheer you on at various points around the country! BTW, who was the old bloke on the push bike at the end?

The term "metasphericals" springs to mind.
No reason why they shouldn't be just as effective as our "meatier-sphericals"......... Thanks for the link, Steeevvvooo. And seconded again....wot jp said. Likewise Liz's request for dates of future outings. Right now you may think that taking the plunge to go racing was possibly the right decision. Two decades hence you will be in absolutely no doubt whatsoever. |
