Have a go, if you dare

Well, that was interesting. Two days on and I'm still sore in the strangest places - how does that work?

I don't believe that I have had that much fun packed into 3 minutes since I was seventeen. I don't know how the regulars manage to hang on for 6+ laps but I suppose that like many things, more skill makes for less effort required.

Thanks to Drew/Alan, Tracy/Tina and Roger. Who won the cash for the most tickets collected? I'm guessing Tracy??

Surprised at the lateral G forces. Felt like we were getting towards 2 G at the apex of the quick corners but I thought that even with good tyres, that was impossible without aerodynamic assistance. Sort me out here somebody.

Drew, it seemed to me that Tracy was pulling about twice the lateral G's that you were, before the chair came up, but not so controlled or predictable. I didn't think that the geometry of the 2 machines was that different. What am I missing here?

Probably down to lack of swinging skills, eh?

Mrs Bass and I had a total ball - on a high for the rest of the day. Back next year for sure and likely with a few mates.

Tracey gave the most rides personally, but was beaten by people that had one bike & two riders, or two bikes. She is also sore in funny places today.

Damn, that is so open to misinterpretation.

I bought my wife this new perfume called chloroform, but she doesn't like it.

She says it makes her sleepy and her arse sore.

She took a guy from my work out he was still shaking when I took him for a ride just to calm him down

She took me for a few hot laps, I came in & was flipping out about what a buzz it was & that I didn't know how anyone could hold on for more than three laps.

I think a few have a goers thought I was genuinely buzzing out.

It was interesting going out on it, felt like I had no room compared to the F1 and I was so used to the inside handle on the F1 I forgot about the one out on the guard

Fucking glad she took it easy on me to, last time I swung on a sidecar was Wangas with Gordie about 4 years ago, I was fucked in three easy laps

She did say she noticed the extra weight with me on which I guess was her subtle way of calling me fat
