Lol, I can attest though that Aaron rode like a fucken pro. So did OAB.

I rode like a bloody nana but did have the instructor come up to me at the end of the day and say that I improved a hell of a lot. Hopefully next time I can take 30 seconds off my lap time. I was fucken stoacked at how much I learned, and I got rid of those unsightly chicken strips

Sorry couldn't make it (as a spectator), tried and all.

Sigh

My reason: RSA Cryptology assignment

Just fucking with ya mate. You were very impressive around there, and yeah that guy on the slick-shod R1 was fucking quick. I'd like to see you on the same bike, reckon it would be a good battle. You passed me mate like I had fdound a new gear on my bike, reverse!!

yeah badr1 wouldnt have been doing 1.50s he had an off last time so think he still getting back into it. The guy on the blue r1 was bloody quick seen him a few times now and he just seems to get better and better, good to watch. i got timed at around 1.48 to 49 and i was ahead of black r1. was also a bit gutted about wheel stands what better place to have a go. Nice stoppie in pits though aaron, just caught end of it.

You guys need to get decent bikes.... like a RD350 or something.... That said, maybe next time I'll take the Z1000 and the fuel cap key.....

Nice riding Aaron. Poor Shadow never stood a chance when it straightened out....

I never did see the other guys out there but it sounds like you'all had a good time....
