Pilgrim's Progress

Obviously Harrie is too modest to report, but WATCH OUT THE REST OF YOU DD RACERS !!! I was at Snetterton yesterday, and watched Harrie knock 20 seconds off her early season times !! In fact, just yesterday alone, I watched her knock 4 seconds off the times she was posting at the start of the day! I followed her through a few bends and you'll ALL have to watch her mid corner speed, cos in the words of a VERY fast racer himself ( no names, no pack drill ! ) she is SERIOUSLY quick mid corner, and her speed thru the Bombhole is REAL, REAL fast........Just keep those legs apart Harrie, its doing you the world of good !! Lol!

thanks for keeping me company and bigging me up david not much to live up to then

i had a great day, it really lifted my spirits and dragged me out of myself!

i popped into Seton Tuning on the way home to let them know how i'd got on with my new extra 3bhp (seems like every marshal knew about that one from when i signed on!) and i could feel myself buzzing and grinning from ear to ear

now all i have to do is hold onto that corner speed for as long as possible, brake later, open my legs etc etc, so not much to think about really

i ****ing love that Bomb hole it's brilliant!

wish i'd got out on your 999 David - next time 8)

one of the highlights of the day was getting outbraked by a GSXR1000 on wets and with race numbers going into Riches, and then catching him up by Sears (we won't mention getting wasted on the straight afterwards! )

I only stayed behind to watch your arse in leathers Harrie, I wonder if the guy on the Gixxer wanted to do the same ! Seriously, I wasnt bigging you up, you were doing REALLY well, and that 'ex-racer' was genuinely pleased with what you did ! You'll need stiletto boots to reach the ground on my 999 !

it's easy to learn where things go (in terms of what's coming round the next corner) coz it's pretty flat apart from the lovely bomb hole and even that's just a bit of a dip really

Well done to you. It was a shame you missed Castle Coombe but I hope to see you race soon.

You show those boys!
