Popped over to Gingers Farm today with the hope of having my first pootle on the 250 in over 8 months today. Unfortunately for that plan there was an enduro event going on. So rather than waste a day I stuck around to watch the racing
The guy who I'd imagine won was flippin fast! At the end of the first lap he was over 2min 10sec ahead of the 2nd place rider and he wern't slow either! 
I managed to take a few pics and some vids too:

Have other vids on youtube if ya interested 











Just wish I'd known about it coz I'd have taken part if I'd had food and fluid with me. |

| Great pics as ever pete. Hope you can join in on the next event. We might need your muddy adventures over winter to keep us smiling. Did you ever sell the Gixxer btw? |
I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left! |

had a bloke contact me from Germany asking for my number but he never called back. May have to keep hold of it a while, looks like I'm the only fool wanting to buy bikes at the moment unfortunately! :(
On a plus note it means I'll still have one of the best sportsbikes you can get if I decide supermoto aint for me ;)
Am off to Riverside MX track on Wednesday with my 250, its a proper track like Golding Barn with lots of big air etc, don't know if my shoulder is up to big jumps or whoops etc but will give it a go and stop if it hurts or fatigues too fast.
This is where I'm going:

A mate is tagging along with his camera so hopefully there will be a few phots to post and maybe a vid or two if I can sucessfully mount my cam  |

Good pics Pete, some real height on pic number 7.
Riverside looks good but I can only see a junior track on the website. Is it the same one for the bigger bikes? |

| Well Riverside has been closed by the local council, guess I'm destined not to get out on the bike this year, DAMN IT! |
