Good Luck to everyone this wkd, hope the weather is great & everyone manages to get round in one piece!

HB - good luck at your home track & i hope you continue to learn & race...

Zimbo - give em hell!

slight shame that my season was over just as i was starting to get to grips with things, hope to be back on the grid soon, but due to many reasons (several financial), i doubt i'll be back before 2009!

I really didn't expect to be doing anything this year, but was really helped out by Mark Bayley, Antonye & Eric to get started & i have absolutely no regrets!

To anyone else thinking of joining the DD Circus, i can heartily recommend it as a great introduction to the sport. The DD Paddock really is as friendly as everyone makes out!

Hello stranger, how's the shoulder doing? Nice to hear from you!

I'll leave the results to Harrie, Zimbo, or Gilps to post but here's a pic of some of the Ducatisti miscreants' machines that turned out.....quite a good number I thought.......and thanks for the tea and cake Gilps !

Thanks to Harrie for the tickets. Nice to meet a couple of you, didnt do much talking, mostly snouting through all the bikes for info. Was a nice day for it

**nogaromill999** · 02 Sep 07, 04:49 PM

It was a lovely day.....dont understand why you left 5 mins before the race though !

**Doodlebug** · 02 Sep 07, 05:59 PM

Nooo, you saw me pull up to grab tickets from harrie, had 3 eager bikers waiting at the gate to get in

**nogaromill999** · 02 Sep 07, 07:24 PM

No, after that, you and the other three left before Harrie's second race !

**Doodlebug** · 02 Sep 07, 07:37 PM

BUSTED

If it hadnt been another hour to wait we would have stuck around, the sky didnt looked promising so we legged it.

How'd she get on?

Well I had a great day at Snett. Great racing, and great results for our bikes!Also great to meet so many friends, old and new, from Ducatisti. Lets hope we do it all again soon!I had a good run, getting home safely having only caught the rain for the last 20 miles, and indoors just after 8.

Actually you left just about ten minutes before the second DD race was called to the collecting area, I was a bit surprised to see Becki leave without watching the race since she's planning to ride in the series next year!

I agree with the other comments posted here. It was an excellent day, and I. for one had my eyes opened about how close , competitive and enjoyable the DD series is.
