al_stu Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 Do have funDon't bin it Just relax, maybe watch some of the faster riders to pick up on lines through the corners etc but don't chase them down as they could be on slicks etc and you might find you run out of grip and/or skill. Quote

fq-craigus Posted May 23, 2016 Author Posted May 23, 2016 Cheers guys, i had loads of fun, well tired. A friend took me around so i could learn som lines he is lapping 1:50's and put himself in the novice group with me. Got it down to 2:10 at fastest lap but my body position is nowhere near where it needs to be, scraping boots but not knees. Does anyone know the website where the pics will be loaded to i didnt get the address Quote
cockercas Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 Who was the TDO? Cadwell takes a bit of balls anyway so i wouldnt worry about times. Aslong as you come away with ear to ear grin who cares? Quote
