You, David Hembrow and the other chap were too fast for me!! I clung on for about 3 laps then watched you disappear into the distance... (Number 47, blue Hurricane with black tail-fairing)
Our season started at Newport in March so I guess they'd be ok.
It would be good to see a few more juniors.
The two girls racing today were my daughter Casey and Dave's daughter Hollie. They are both 11.
Have you been to Milton Keynes before?
I would suggest that it might not be the best track for juniors to have their first go... Grotty surface and a very nasty blind bend...
Might be worth having a look round first to see what you reckon.

	They've been racing in the BPCC for several seasons. Blind bends are part of the scenary.
	Racing is life... Anything which happens before or afterwards is just standing around waiting to race....

	Well could you just ask them to slow down then so they don't embarrass too many old folks... Would definitely be nice to see some more youngsters. The sport won't have much of a future otherwise!! Alan
