Thank you ALL for TD5

Collarbones suck mate, it took me two weeks to get back on a bike after Manfield, there's a bump which was unsettling a lot of the bigger bikes right where your fairing scrapes were, I'm guessing you hit that while leant over on the brakes. Didn't see it happen unfortunately

Yeah was very unexpected anyway.

It is starting to feel a bit better already. Still got some codine left so keeping them going. Hopefully I'll be able to drop the sling in a few weeks. Are you back to full strength yet?

Man typing 1 handed sucks.

[MSTRS:Me]

I think "dumbass of the day" is more apt.

I still can't work out what happened. I lost the front while still on the brakes and only just starting to turn in on the first left bit of the chicane. I wasn't leaned over much at all and i think that is why i broke my collar bone. Was quite a hard impact from a bit of a height.

I managed to pick my bike up and get it in neutral and then realised something wasn't quite right. Nearly passed out just before one of the marshals arrived to hold my bike lol.

I did. Man, you were moving K14. Fastest entry into the chicane I'd seen all day. Definitely the ripple in the track washed the bike - back, front, dunno - you went down fast and hard. Was relieved to see you up and sitting quietly on the bike. What followed after the session ended was surreal to watch. (was at Point 9 with HDTboy).
Glad you came out not tooooo bad.

[HDTboy]

Yeah man, it only gives a slight tweak landing big jumps on the mountain bike. though I only broke mine in one place. Phil's been having lots of trouble with his I believe

Yeah Im pretty sure I braked same place I had been in the previous laps (about 110m marker) which should be fine considering at puke I was braking past the 100m marker for a slower corner and from a higher speed. Oh well, thems the breaks.

Was just when I was sitting on the bike that the pain started to come, wasn't very pleasant I'd have to say.

[svs]

hey that was my corner! i thought i was supposed to be the only one to break collar bones there. oh well, join the club.

hope the trip back home wasn't too bad for you.

Highlights are too numerous to mention.... though a couple of stand-ups and a hichchair were nice...

Was only a "spreader bro, I cant do "high chair" wheelies, but your welcome.

A spreader is sitting on the tank with legs poking straight out the side, a high chair is sitting on the tank, with legs over the handle bars and fairing between your arms.

I think Colapop knows what a spreader is.... And he seemed to enjoy them.

[Colapop]

I DO! I like spreaders... I can't do wheelies of any sort (apart from the ones where I get too excited and do it by mistake... ) I think gravity likes me too much.
I do enjoy other peoples abilities though.... didn't see any pillion wheelies...

You obviouly weren't watching M1cro and Yungatart or M1cro and Kittyhawk because apparently according to them pillion wheelies are the shit and i would have to agree

you was doing spreaders...

Man I was looking for someone to do wheelies with all day.

Cheers frost man.

Just the one bro, when I stopped to check if Vicki was OK from her bin, when we pulled back onto the track, she did a wee hoist, (but the Aprilia was less than co-operative), so I jumped on the tank to encourage it. Was quite a good one actually, not my best, but Colopop was giving the big

[Colapop]

It was cold, I was tired, and I was pining to be on the track... and too many people were just whizzing by me!! Still had a ball though... and still trying to the video and pics that I shot outa Wasp... I think he's resizing them...

Yes Stickychick... pillion wheelies are the shit... I just didn't get to see any...

[sisterecho]

Hi. I’d just like to say thanks to everyone, this was my first experience of a track day and I had a great time. It was nice to meet you and thanks for not judging me because I turned up with Cowpoos.

[Drew]

Yes Stickychick... pillion wheelies are the shit... I just didn't get to see any...

I know this is not the place for it, but I want to say, that pillion wheelies are the DUMBEST ever! Anyone who would get on the back of a bike, knowing that the rider intended to hoist it has a death wish. And anyone willing to risk crushing the spine of a pillion has no consience.

Wheelies go wrong A LOT! Please dont do it two up.

A big thanks to MSTRS for helping me pick up my bike when it slipped on a banana skin that someone had left by the track....
