Who's going down there? Was good last time I was up with a fairly good turnout. What's the maximum we would generally get for a Wednesday night?

The most we had last year was about 20. Numbers have been down a bit this year as the weather has been horrific the nights this has been on. We should get a good turnout tomorrow.

Never fun!
Did you pay a visit to "Hoogerland", or did you (hopefully!) avoid barbed wire fences and the likes? |

| Haha. No, I avoided fences fortunately, but managed to hit a bonnet, windscreen and then the road via a few somersaults. Bikes a write off, my left shoulder and right leg are all busted up but pretty lucky considering! |

Well thanks to the boys out there tonight. They dragged me to 26mph on the flat for the first time ever! Before blowing me straight out the back door on "the" climb.
TT'd four laps on my own, it's a good pain. On with the TT next week. |

Sorry to hear about your crash Paul!
Ye, Rik's right Gary, just keep going out. You learn the route and when you need to bury yourself to stay on. I like to drop things too to put other riders off - last nite was a half full water bottle!
