Rockingham - August 2003
The end of the long hot summer of 2003 - a whole day at Rockingham. We didn't realise that the Ducati Sporting Club would turn up en masse, but it was good fun dicing with them in a very speedy intermediate group. Amanda, Adam, Russell and a few other Ixies turned up for this one, too. It started off a bit "crashy", but the guys soon calmed down, and we had a great day out.
The best bit of all was getting my knee down. I heard a scrape and wondered if something was falling off the bike, so I picked it up and ran off onto the grass, only to find it had been my knee, and I had a lovely scraped knee slider. After all these years, and in the first session too! Pretty soon I was sliding left and right knees with ease. What a day!

Being pursued - here I'm close to knee down |

A close-up - I still feel I look a bit girly on the bike, but it isn't a bad photo... |

This is more aggressive |
And again, looking mean |
Through the hairpin and out, and you can hardly see me I'm so far off the bike! |
