Didnt fool me for a minute Mr Simpson ;D but I agree I think you should give up crashing [smiley=thumbsup.gif] [/quote]Originally Posted by Caroline
Drat, took me ages to pen as well, thought I'd fool everybody
Sent you some pics (of you) lol

The trick is avoiding crashing Gerry, and managing the potential get-off scenario. In your situation you had two good options and one bad one, the better ones being:
1. Take the "Oh ****" lane, as used by numerous Llandow compatriots on Saturday.
2. If heading for the (wet) grass, pick the bike up and go straight on, and don't touch the brakes!
The bad option you don't need explaining...
Keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and you'll learn to manage crises when they arise. Good style points on the forward roll by the way, very quickly back on your feet in a quite nonchalant stylee well done on avoiding any more painful injuries 8-)
Fast group next season then? :-?
Top Tip: Next time, back off slightly before the final corner, drive through it harder, carrying more corner speed for a faster exit and slingshot past the other bike on the way out of the corner thus avoiding the need for a death or glory manoeuvre too far up the braking zone [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
Sorry to read about your off Gerry also sorry to read your hanging up your trackday gloves
But hang on to one of your track bikes as in a few months time you may feel the urge to get back on track and as scotty said in the fast group next year !!

wish i'd been there to see it first hand Gerry! Looks like a cracking crash! Fancy doing it again next year for me?! ;D
Nice 1 g3o lol
A combination of alcohol - holiday - old age creeping on = not reading posts correctly ;D
Good choice Gerry crashing = pain + ££££££s
From your post Gerry, I can relate to every point, although, not on the track and not going fast!! Sorry you are hurting, I can sympathise, but we'll get back on because we love it so much!! Hope you feel better soon! :-*
hang on in there dude
