wasnt a fan of all the flat out bits as i rather slower technical stuff...... when i entered i didnt know about the amount of flat out bits so i did pull out when i did know about them but had loads of shit off so called mates about pulling out so only entered just to shut them up & show i could finish the race


to be fair aswel there was a kid on a 85cc bike in my eyes he was the rider of the race even though he didnt win he was more than a match for most of the adults !

Yeah that's the one

Bluebell covered off camber climbs With some exposed tree roots thrown in - it don't get any worse than that Very Happy

The track in Monmouth looked a good one but I'm not sure if it's the same one he is using now ?
