Well had a great day at Croft on the big yin. Goes like fuck it does, don't think there were to many faster bikes in a straight line on the day smooth and planted. A wee bit heavy to chuck into corners for me and my wreck of a body and mind. A more powerful and fitter gent than me would manage this quite well though.
It w as a Mick Kinghorn skills development trackday. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to one of his days. There is no overtaking allowed but the way the protocol works you never feel held up as you get your chance to ride up front. Good classroom segments although nothing you couldn't find yourself online.
Anyone that always wanted to go for a trackday, but was scared of some bampot whoring up his inside unexpectedly, should really check this course out.
ANYWAY. I've now just sold the VFR to the Superbike factory. They are picking it up on Wednesday.
I dropped the bike twice on the way down to Croft, once in a garage forecourt, the other at a dodgy junction move I did. Both times was because my short legs and lack of muscle can't actually keep the bike up. My slow manoeuvering on the VFR is terrible. Anyway that and then having to ride back up in the dark and pissing rain, then get detoured through half the borders, as the A1 was closed. Close the A1? ffs! I had a dark tinted visor and genuinely thought I was having near death experiences every few seconds in the back of beyond , running out of fuel as the tank in the VFR 1200 is small.
Next on the agenda is getting the 400rr out at Knockhill. I'm 250 punds in credit there from an ARDS that I had to cancel due to my getting drunk the night befeore. I'm not really sure I want to go out on a normal trackday because not sure if I want to die.

Wish my legs were 2 inches longer so more bikes would fit., actually while I'm at it I wish my cock was 2 inches longer for more .....
I've got two dogs and they insist on sticking their nose in the other ones piss. Why would you want to do that. Then they want to lick me...arseholes.
Going to organise a Fireblade meet at Knockhill. If anyone fancies it? Book the track for a couple of hours for some parade laps with knee down They've had them at Donington and Silverstone, would be good to have a meet in Scotland.
Happy Saturday everyone. |

Going to the BSB on Sunday, it's at Knockhill so would be rude not to.
Never been at a BSB weekend before so I am looking forward to it.
I've got that 'Lets Rock Scotland' festival on the Saturday though so may be too inebriated to go to the BSB . I've checked with the wifey at Knockhill though and you can pay at the gate, so no need to book and then not turn up.
I'll be cheering on Rory Skinner. he did great last year at his home track and got two podiums if I remember correctly. Future BSB race winner I think then after that I think he has the talent to go all the way. He's still young. Maybe I'm a bit biased |

That's one more month that I'm still alive. Had a close call a couple of times. Guy came out of a Junction smidsy had to brake heavily, no ABS. Next one was my fault. Overtook and almost got wiped out by a cage driver coming the other way. Not good, trying to chase my pals. They are way to quick for me. Got to learn not to do stupid things at 80mph.
Girlfriend is still ongoing, not sure what to make of the whole situation. Sometimes I like it sometimes I think to myself that I can't be arsed with this relationship shit.
She rolls me joints, brings me coffee in bed, is good with my son. Fucks like some sort of maniac. Or would if I got a hardon.
She's owe me 1100 quid. I feel like a sugar daddy |

So I put purple glitter on my face at lets Rock Scotland. Level 42 and OMD were actually fantastic.
Average age at the festival must have been 55, right up my street. Me with my girlfriend that I met ten months ago now. Wow someone's put up with my eclectic self. Love her now I think. I know, not a good idea and likely to end in tears. When she's my age I'll be 75 ffs. Take it while it's going. No cellulite, pert tits, brings me coffee an in bed in the morning. Changes my sons dirty nappies. Dream I tell ya. I'm a lucky mother fucker.
On topic of bikes, not been on it for a week nearly. Got the 250 and the fireblade insured. Actually prefer the 250 to the Fireblade. It's really like a 125. But not as it hits the ton.
