I'm in Matt. Hardly had any decent track time since last year so no doubt I'll be chasing you around again this year.  :daumenhoch:

I think there will be a few more of us this time though so should be interesting.

At the moment we are planning to space some of the races out ( to give old lungs/legs a chance ) and the most popular 2 classes are OS20" and RWYB 15+ ( this means people doubling up and wanting to do 2 classes ) , if this continues to be the case then these will be the 2 classes with the largest rest period between them  ;) .

Ive got my OS 24 finished so I will probably race. Ive never riden a 24 anywhere other than on the road before so it should be fun.

A mate of mine is bringing a NS 24" for a roll about. Maybe just have an open 24" class if their aint many OS's?

Bad news for me but good news for anyone who didn't want to see the big red Torker scraped to shite - I'm not going to make it this year as t'wife hasn't dropped the sprog yet so I am on standby. Note to all with any common sense - do not shag 'em between October and mid-December or you might miss MK. Off now to weep while I gently put all my bikes back into storage.

Pete

I just had this idea that you entering the OS 24" helped set the level for the type of "race" it was going to be. I dont know if I would call it Waddling, but at least we knew it was more about the entering, not where anyone came. If you dont ride it will get built up into a real race and there will be enough of that in the 20"

If it helps you, my back tyre is 1mm from the frame on both sides so Im sure if I pedal too hard it will rub. The brake now works OK but the posi stop seat clamp moves so if you pull the lever too hard the cam on the pitbull locks up and it jams the brake on. Im looking at a low power rolling rig, with an emergency stop only.

anyone remember the wet bournemouth meeting, i entered both OS cruiser and 20".

When i finished my 20" moto, my cruiser moto was waitng for me on the gate! I'm susprised i lasted 5 consecutive motos then had to pull out the cruiser.
Geoff the commentator then called me lazy for blowing out the cruiser race  :idiot2:

I hope you guys get a bigger break, i aint doing 2 classes again!

Im gonna race cruiser as well, on my PL24. I have only ever had one race on a cruiser before at Hersden, so should be good on a full sized track. Paul, we might have a scoot for you to use, I will keep you posted :daumenhoch:
