True, but this will most likely be my last before we head away in December.
I knew Vince was looking to do this one with Circuit Breakers.

It's terrible when you get hooked.
First it was the Monster.
Then it was Bling
Now I've got a track addiction.
Dam......

And today I spent the day at Somesby Junior Motorcycle flat track.

Can I do that too? Too many bikes and not enough time. Might have to quite working and just ride bikes.

If he's a "junior", I'd hate to see how old the "seniors" look!  [laugh]

So was the flat tracking fun to watch? I've been curious before, but never actually curious enough to go and have a look...

There was only 5-6 bikes there for the day.
It was a private track hire for them to shoot clothing ranges going around on riders/bikes.

Was pretty fun to watch, didn't have gear there to ride, but if there is another chance I'll go prepared.
Biggest problem Andy (pictured) had was that his WR Kwaka had road tyres as did the other version there.
The other few bikes were on more appropriate rubber.

I'll bang a few more snaps on flickr and let you know.

The Don

Saw Vince and Big AL at Eastern creek yesterday, had an awesome time, though I still need to grow bigger balls to crank the bike right over (chicken strips). Had my own private scrutineer check the bikes over in my pit (thanks Vince) and a great yarn to Big AL. Yesterday was the first time that I have seen a D16 in the flesh Lovely bike, congratulations Vince.
Don
Great day had by all and I don't think an ambulance was called. [thumbsup]
