you would both be fine in inters, it would take away a few of the unpredictable mobile chicanes, but you might get a few more people overtaking you....... which is bad for the ego :lol: and that might make you push too hard, but its down to riding your own pace and letting the speed come to you.

the slower it feels the faster it is
I think it would have to be inters. It was verging on hazardous in the novice group. I would rather be overtaken with faster people who have more experience than tripping over slow people who were all over the shop doing wacky unpredictable stuff. Plus there is more to be learnt from the fast group

They were fine to change me down to novice last time, just need to phone the office and they send you a new booking and cancel the old one

I'd love to join on the 8th but it's too soon to arrange it and too close to payday :(

Want more pictures? :lol:

While you're at it Virt, you're gonna need this lens too (or a longer one would be even better) :D

If the 7 day forecast is good ill be booking this anyway so can bring camera again for you.

Failing that i have a camera I could bring. No where near as good at Chris's but you'd get some pics. You would have to keep moving round the track to get pics though, none of this standing in one place and zooming in across the track :lol:

How much for a lens? :lol: that's more than the 2 screens for my computer will cost me :( I'll pass!

Tell you what CK, I'll come out on the bike and take photos from beside you and sh1t :wink: (just be sure to slow down so I can catch you!)

:lol: mine is a basic slr. None interchangeable lense but you are able to change the iso, shutter speed ect so can get some very nice pics, I've just never tried taking photos of bikes with it
