    Maurice ,

    I just spotted this .

    Excellent , the old bike never went like that in my hands, it looked pretty impressive.

    Good job - nice advert for the TA I see you kept my Dakar sticker on the mudguard - that's what made it go so fast !!!

    Nice vid Bandit, and a good-looking track, though that quick right-left with an adverse camber over a brow looks like a challenge! I went to Brands and there was a SuperDuke there achieving remarkable angles on the bends, though I'd have got frustrated on my Alp for all that it can keep up through the twisty bits. Did you do it on knobblies?! I'd love to see the power-rangers' faces if you did.
    1997 Jag 3.2 Exec (jangly jangly!); two bicycles; 2001 XL 650 V-1 which is ready for anything, cuts through traffic like a hot knife through butter and just gets better and better and a low mileage Pan European ST1100

    Hi pdsquire it's a great little track I did it on Dunlop D607

    I had a laugh at the power-rangers complaining about cold cramped hands I was fine with my heated grips.

    HEATED GRIPS?! Genius!!

    I think perhaps I should have fitted knobblies...
