Thanks to Redline Trackdays<\/a> for a fantastic event. Great to be back and set some very average lap times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jerez<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m not complaining, but Jesus it was HOT! Great to share a garage with my old Bemsee<\/a> rookie chum Danny McFadden Racing<\/a> and Kerrie McFadden<\/a> and whitnessing the bonkers Bob Collins 99<\/a> wringing the necks out of his bikes @ Jerez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Was great to spend a few days with the lads on bikes, riding a great track. Packed the bikes up on day 3 and straight to Portimao. Joined by wife and kids for 2 days, then 3 more on track with the lads whilst the family soaked up the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aut\u00f3dromo Internacional do Algarve<\/a> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Re learning the track on a different bike and Timing issues caused a bit of confusion early on. Issues sorted and cracking on, matched previous best time, until the front washed at turn 1 in 2nd to last session. Not too much damage, all bodged and ready for day2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day2 was struggling, I put it down to the crash, but just before 1st session on day3 I checked my front tyre and it was only 14psi!! Once I inflated the tyre to the correct pressure the bike instantly felt better and got back to my previous best time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Gary Walton<\/a> for a bit of impromptu coaching as he came past me with his client in a few sessions, and being Gary not only was watching his client in front, but also watching me and giving me pointers as he rode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can we forget The Irish Rover, the lads favourite bar!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
