I'll try and keep this short.
I loved my Pro Twin racing experience. I think it's a great class if you want to go fast for fewer $$$. I have never raced for points before, I have only raced in buckets where the aim has been to fight for wins every race. I found it was very difficult at times forcing myself to circulate and collect points rather than just go nuts and try win every race like at the start of the nationals season. Obviously it all paid off!
I want to keep racing for sure. I enjoyed the people, the tracks, the battling and the challenge. This time I would like to try a different challenge and step up to Superlite or ideally a 600. I don't know how or when this is going to happen but that's tomorrows problem.
I want to sell my Pro Twin that won the 2013 National Pro Twin title along with all the spare parts (spare tyres too) as well as my second Pro Twin that has a blown up engine. I need to sell these to pay back the debt!!! If I could turn back time, I would have bought a Pro Twin that was already set up or at least halfway set up. It was a LOT of work getting my bike together. It's not as easy as people might think. Setting up a commuter bike to be a race bike was a lot of work. My bike has the best suspension you can get for a Pro Twin. My theory was if the bike has the best equipment and I wasn't winning, then it wasn't the bikes fault!!!
If the bike takes ages to sell I might end up racing it again at some stage because it's still a fun bike!!! Possibly over winter or even at nationals next year.
Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in knowing more about Pro Twin racing or if you are interested in owning a decent Pro Twin bike. Both of the Pro Twin bikes I have are registered but are on hold. Flick me a PM or if you know my cellphone number, give me a text or call.
It would be great if we could boost the number of Pro Twin entries in Nationals!!
