Quasi............KTM525SMR number 65
Well weather first up, Friday was absolute bollocks on the drive down but Saturday was really nice so excellent stuff to the big fella in the sky
my day started as a bit of a panic as I had new rubber and no chance of a scrub in, and no power in the shed to get some heat into the tyres so Practice was a little slow, however I went out scrubbing in me rubber thinking take it easy, take it easy, and after about 4 laps decided to give it a bit more throttle but nothing to risky, so I thought after about 6 laps it was time to boogey and the flag came out ! Oh well what I did will have to do
Fuck me days I qualified 3rd ! cewl, thats a record for me BTW
My first race came up I went out the shed inspired to go hard and keep my overall placing of 4rth firmly in place or bettered so I had Pantera going on in me head and was going to Mutha F**ken clean up !!
Race start..................crap, turn one was in about 5th, managed to get 2 spots and turn three two more
FUCK ME DAYS QUASI WAS IN FIRST !!!!
well thats never happened before, cewl I thought but it was kinda weird to be honest, anyway I went as hard as I could, I went through the hairpin and onto the straight and the bigger fellas where all over me and passed my arse like I was standing still, Into Higgins I braked late and was all over the SXV550 and bullied him for first spot again, I just didnt have the HP, I went back to 3rd and it seemed like I couldnt make ground except into and through the corners I managed to catch them up into turn one again and felt it was time to make a move again to rattle them................When !!!
In a split sec no warning the front just washed away and I was on the deck
hello track......hello sky......hello track.....hello sky.......hello grass......hello sky (this went on for some time it seemed) great Im done time to stand up.........wrong......... hello sky, hello grass...........finally came to rest and jumped up to get the bike, I saw a trail of bits behind the bike and figured that the race was over for me so I composed myself and waited for the end of the race.
Muppet award moment..............I wanted to pull the bike of the stones so I grabbed the front forks and pulled like a bastard, little foot traction was gained so I ended up pulling the bike On top of me pinning myself underneath (fuck did I share that) anyway all in full view of the spectators, fuck I felt stoopid , but all in good fun eh.
Once I did get to have a look at the bike I could see that I smashed the master cylinder for the clutch, apart from that a broken plastic and nothin else so sweeeeet a very simple and quick repair, infact its almost finished
Body well a bit sore got whiplash or summit and a few sore bits but Im lucky overall as I have seen the video of the spill and it was a goody.
