thanks Telli yeh be good to go for a spin with you again!
I 'm betting i'll be knackered form the sandpit ride so would be good if the rain delays it for another time!

Do you guys reckon this will be on tomorrow with the weather the way it is today? Weather forecast for tomorrow is pretty much the same.

Just in case anyone didn't get the email this morning it has been postponed until next Sunday the 13th.

[RJM]

Fingers crossed we're riding tomorrow, weather isn't great again but better than last weekend.

We had an email from a club saying that Ken Fells will be running tomorrow regardless - that he won't postpone again. Unsure who told them that.

RACING TODAY

- Posted on 13.06.2010

Yes we are racing today

Wow that was hardwork today. First battle was getting the Land Rover up through the mud. Had to get towed by the tractor.

Racing wasn't too good, managed 2 laps in the first race before crashing right on the start finish line and pulling off, second race got my goggles caked so took them off, managed a lap and then got an eyeful of mud and couldn't see so again pulled in. Good day out but bloody tough work.

Have to apologise to the guy at Greenlane Washworld, he had one hell of a mess to clean up after I was done.

Sorry mate but I have to say that was a very average effort for the Landrover. The guys at Top Gear would have had a field day. Are you sure James May wasn't driving??
Even the Subaru with two bikes on the back went past you.
All in all we had more fun watching the 4x4 efforts than the racing, which was average as well. I suupose it didn't help that juniors bike had a lock up on the first lap.

[RJM]

I was pissed off with the efforts of the Land Rover too! Bloody embarrassing having dials for sand, mud, rocks, snow and it got stuck in that stuff. The problem was all the controls wouldn't let me put the power down. At one stage I actually got out and left it in drive, all 4 wheels were idle spinning while I was standing next to it. Not my car though, the owner returns from overseas in a few more weeks. Will have to think about cleaning it inside and out soon.

Probably just needed to take out 5psi per tyre.
