    It tends to follow wherever the Combine Harvesters drop the mud;)

    (well if one particular Lusk-based Boardsie's racing anyway)

    Yes, it's a handicap, 4 or 5 groups, I forget, set off with a gap in order of ability.

    Ah fond memories...of hitting the deck that day! I still remember you coming past me while I was on my backside with some words of "encouragement". I might have to make an appearance or two this Summer to relive the glory days!

    Delighted to be there. Looking forward to next week.
    My heart rate hit 177bpm at one stage, does this mean I'm 43 again.

    Yes, it was, when we were caught by Group 2. I stayed with them for nearly 2 laps. Then I blew, but I'm sure you heard the explosion.

    I strategically kept my distance.

    Thinking of making my RR debut for the year tomorrow. Hoping to get into limit (wav, please note;)) - if I survive 3 laps it will be a bonus

    Actually, maybe I can tag along in the youth race - might manage to complete that....

    Any extra firepower in the limit group will be much appreciated.

    Hi all

    Thinking about heading out this evening.
    Is it sign-on by 7.30, or is sign-on closed earlier?

    Thanks
