Silverstone VJMC

Great fun as always. Due to the meeting running 90 minutes late thanks to a sidecar outfit spewing out oil on the line all the way round the National circuit being used this weekend we only got 3 laps at 5 minutes notice. Good news is that this is a simple little track with the only tricky bit being Woodcote tightening up as you enter the start straight. Otherwise glad I watched on bike Manx Norton You Tube video to clock braking points, approach position and apexes. Found out that by trying less it was quicker and more fun. Great to meet Tony, rider 17 on a Yamaha F600, who organises classic bike track days. Aha, this is the way forward. Now have ideas of ball hitch and 1 man bike connector device so I can have home comforts and track days in like minded company next year.
