I had rained and was slippy, but the track soon cut in and there was lots of grip and a bit o sunshine. I started to get into it... the four-fiddy was on form and we were going side-ways. A lot!
Man... why is going side-ways soooo much fuckin' fun?!
The fires of flat-trackin' sure aren't out. I want to get back into it next season. Gotta sort out a Thunderbike. Two options here:
i) a tasty Co-Built Framer - some moolah but the tool for the job
ii) chuck a few pound at the 'ol Flat-track Monster and try not to let it kill me - cheap but a heavy old pig and probably uncompetitive
Right now I'm swaying toward the Monster - it's just a larff... innit? Besides... the amount of enjoyment one gets from racing seems to be inversely proportionate to the amount of money one spends on it.
Either way... got to speak to Anthony at Co-Built...
Did you see the Ducati story in Sideburn 4? They made a Pro Main with a stock Duke frame. But you need to sort out the steering lock. Without that you may as well be asking for another collarbone break. G

ReplyDeleteSome tasty Co-Built yolks should sort the steering lock problims.
