First Modern road race- Monza Ducati 848 challengeFirst of all I must offer my sincere apologies for being so bad at keeping you all up to date..... Things have been really tough in 2011, first of all overcoming the injuries sustained at the Manx GP, and then trying to come to terms with suddenly only having classic racing, instead of complimenting it with riding Superbikes and Supersport bikes at places like the TT and northwest etc. Don't get me wrong, I love everything about Classic racing as both an engineer and a rider, but I need my modern fix too! Combine that with my two early crashes at the start of the season (it would seem that 23 is the age that you stop just bouncing, everything hurts!) and a meeting that saw me break down in every session and maybe you can see why I perhaps fell out of love with racing slightly. It had been a couple of years since I'd been pain free and suddenly I felt like a nobody.... Anyway, all of these are just excuses, I decided to take a few months break to clear my head, and recover from the continual bouncing, so I went to the Northwest and TT as just a spectator. A great time was had by all and it really kicked my arse into gear, I don't want to miss another one! As soon as I was home from the Northwest I started training again and have now decided I will enter the UGP on the 600, a Classic, and hopefully a 125 and 250. I have also agreed to a ride on Andy Kirkwood's 848 Ducati for a one off event at Monza this weekend (9th & 10th July)- thank you so much Andy! I must also extend my appreciation to Steve and Sarah Jordan for allowing me to ride a bike that Steve has otherwise inherited for the year. I was at Mallory park on Saturday just gone, to familiarise myself with the Ducati, and started learning how to ride a modern bike, with modern tyres and brakes on a short circuit again - the last time I did it in anger was in 2008 Superstock 600! I will update on my antics early next week, so check back soon.................
Back on Track at MalloryWell at last I was back racing at Mallory for the opening round of the CRMC 2011 meetings, for the first time since my big crash at the Manx grand prix in August. Riding the Seeley Enfield push rod single that Dad Steve took to over a ton during Manx practice, and a Yamaha TD2 250,on loan from Roger Bryant, I was pleased and relieved that I had lost none of my riding skills. It was however a mixed week-end for Team Flitwick, with both myself and brother David off, on the extremely slippery new Mallory surface. My off came in my first race back after the big Island crash, at the 'Bus stop' chicane going in on the borrowed TD2 Yamaha. I landed heavily on my shoulder that was dislocated on the Island, but despite the bruising still went on to ride in four more races- my Mother was having kittens! So Dad, Merv, Steve Bond and Roger set to repairing the little Yam, in readiness for the next days races- sorry Roger, the racing adrenelin had kicked in! Brother David was even unluckier when he had nowhere to go at Edwina’s' chicane on Sunday. Rriding Bob Light’s 500 Goldie in the first race of the day, another rider dropped his bike just in front of him, during the warm up lap. This had him off resulting in a dislocated right shoulder- we are now like book ends! They tried three times manipulating it into place, before taking him to theatre to finally get it back in. The Mallory new surface is very slippery at cold temperature and there were 26 fallers on the Saturday alone so that made us feel a little better! David had brand new AM leathers that were cut off- the top half at the medical centre at Mallory and although he begged them not to do it at Leicester Royal they also cut the bottom part off up both legs. Every panel has a cut in them so they are completely ruined- so Steve from AM Leathers is busy making a replacement set as we speak- good leathers I highly reccomend them. Despite my' early tip off, I got my head down and went on to win three out of the four Group 2 races on the Seeley Bullet but finished 2nd in the other after a slow start just after David’s crash. Tyre warmers are banned with the classic club, so this time I made sure I warmed the tyres before cracking on! The group 2 bikes now run with the 1300 bikes so I had my work cut out but finished the last race 2nd overall with a fastest lap of 58.7 seconds- not far behind Gary Thwaites, who doesn't hang about. This also knocked about 4 seconds off the lap record for my class, at Mallry, so far so good. As a bonus, and a thank you to Roger Bryant for loaning his TD2, I also won on the Yamaha, and knocked 6 seconds from that lap record too- all in all a good comeback shakedown! Next race is Pembrey (south Wales) Easter Sat/Sunday, I will again be on the Enfield and hopefully David will be fit to ride Bob’s Goldie’s. Meantime back to the physio now for some work on my shoulder, then roll on the next round- can't wait!
