Re: Kwacky's Donington Report

Yes there were lots of expensive bikes but a lot of road bikes more than I thought would be there and one of the fastest lads there was on a road bike. It was a fun day out and I'm so excited (that may have shown) about next week.

Bassetts Pole

... last night. A car driver decided to do a u-turn on a bike, taking out the rider and the pillion. I don't know the extent of the injuries but both were taken to hospital.

We were lucky enough to get instruction from a police biker (who sadly lost his life racing at the Isle of Man). So about 6 years later I'm back and I'm ...
