Oh shit! My apologies- I guess I definitely owe you a beer then!! I don't normally try to win practice, not sure what would have happened.

As for Wade, yeah I'd totally run him off the track lol!!

It’s fine man don’t worry. It’s a hard track to pass on. I wasn’t mad or anything. Just busting your balls lol.

Haha, ok cool! I hope they have a practice next weekend, I actually enjoy that track more than the others because it is mellow and doesn't beat me up as bad as MotoVated.

My first race was 1996 at wroxton in the UK. I raced a 1995 Gas Gas 125 and blew a crank seal in practice, my dad made me ride it all day saying it was my imagination. Was a tough day but I’ve loved the sport my whole life, first race meet attended I was 2 weeks old!

Off and on since 1972. That was a desert race. I laid off until I could afford a real race bike, a 1978.5 RM250C2.
