Many thanks

Many thanks to those I chatted to Sunday at Anglesey and to those people I failed to introduce myself to thanks for not shooing me away , I managed to gather quite a bit of information and a few ideas and was impressed with the racing and the enthusiasm shown , on what was quite a wet and miserable day . Hopefully the weather today (Monday) is a bit kinder and commiserations to those who suffered mechanical problems , Hopefully they could be sorted .

Hi Paul weather still bad today but still had some good racing roll on cadwell

Shame about the weather But you managed a win Sunday didn't you Robbie ?


Waiting for the off.

Paul

Hi Paul,
Good to meet you at Anglesey, hope you are not too put off by the weather, nice picture too by the way, have you got any more?
If you get some time spare you can get across and visit, I will be prepping the bike for Cadwell fairly soon, so you can see a bit more of what is happening if you come over at the right time. I will email you direct with contact details for that.
Maybe you are a bit over whelmed with info for now... but sit back and digest it all before making any decisions on the way to go. Good luck with it all.
Regards,
Alan

Lovely pic Paul. Sham i can't upload pics onto the forum because of the silly Flickr thing. Was Anglesey that misty and rainy! From the pics i've seen it looks quite a sunny place!

No the weather didn't put me off Alan and not so much overwhelmed just fired with enthusiasm , Still not sure as to the direction to go , 125 or 175 but common sense is saying build or buy a 175 before trying the possibly more highly strung 125 .

I've started cramming things onto my Ebay watch list and plan to do Rufford park , Newark and Huddersfield autojumbles over the coming weeks . I also need to get in touch with Brian White about a barrel and head .

I only managed a few pictures Alan , mainly due to using my wifes point and shoot digital and they are all from the pit wall but I will post up a couple more .

I'm quite sure Anglesey is glorious in the sunshine Tim but I did notice as I rode out of the circuit Sunday that there weren't many trees about and nearly every bush and shrub was bent over at a ninety degree angle so quite a windy part of the Welsh coast line

Hows your hunt for a bike going Tim , any luck ?


Paul

A couple more pictures as promised

All I have gotta say about them pictures we were all really bored

Cheers for the pics Paul! Quite good photography for such bad weather! Bike hunt is going well. Found out Chris Bennion's 175 Bantam is for sale November-ish so that might be the one i buy.

Let me know when would be a good evening and I will pop down Alan , I can probably ask a few more questions with out worrying about upsetting your concentration before going out on track
