    You were doing really well. Nerves played a part with the gear changing I guess. Well done!

      Thank you. Yeah if it went on the right side I would imagine it's much worse for damage 🤣 I've got a video from Cadwell that I'm working on, so will have another coming soon 😁👍

      @@SuggyRacing I came off at Paddock Hill on a cold rear tyre (first corner at Brands - downhill, fast). I wouldn't recommend it. It hurts a lot and the bike rolls. It gets expensive 😂 you got off lightly mate

      Yeah definitely. At least it was the last race of the weekend, would have been gutted if it was the first 🤣 I've also got a few spares with me since this happened, so I can fix bits now at the track.

    • @SuggyRacing
      @SuggyRacing  Před 2 lety

      Cheers mate. Yeah I know what you mean. It's very easy to push and end up having an off before you even get going 🤣 Guess I'll just have to build another bike so I have one as spare. 😁 If I could get two bikes to the track easily, I would. I run out of space in my van as is it with just the one.

      @SuggyRacing  Před 2 lety +1

      Yeah they aren't the best are they. There used to be a company who made them a bit like GB racing do, but they don't seem to be around anymore. Ideally we need to convince GB racing or R&G to make some. I'm sure people would buy them! Probably a lot involved in making them though 🤷

    Considering it wasn’t a slow off that’s relatively minimal damage. Still a shame after all your hard work.
