Cadwell Park July 2015: We had a great day and the people at MSV Cadwell performed to their usual brilliant standard. All the riders I spoke with were great as well.
As always, these trackdays provide me the chance to catch up with friends who I otherwise never get to see. It was great to see Tanneman, Er-Minio, Metripolis and Surflogic again, plus the BMW guys (Rob, Jim, Dave E, James and David H to mention a few). I swear the people are what makes the Non-Competetive trackdays enjoyable.
In short, a really nice day at the track, even with the rain. My pics from Gary at Picman arrived yesterday:
Leaving the Pits for the first sighting session on the new-to-me GS. My 'Inner Show-Off' got the better of me for a moment:
One of only a couple on the BCR. I got 2 sessions on it in between my other duties but the rain in the afternoon saw it back in the trailer due to the tyres I have on it:
The other BCR picture. Its more to show the Park not-straight at the back of the circuit. What may not be quite so obvious from the picture is how much of a drop you make and the climb back up the other side. It's massive, a real roller-coaster and one of the reasons I love riding at Cadwell:
There were a few showers in the late morning and just after lunch, it really started to rain:
and rain:
and eventually it was wet with a capital 'Wet':
And a giffy because I've been playing with those recently:
Looking forward to Snetterton next month. The new Ohlins rear for BCR will be in and I'm eager to see what difference it makes.
