ASBK round 2 - Wakefield

[Marshy]

Soooooo, not my favouritestest track (last time I was there I left in an ambulance with a badly broken ankle), but I'm doing all of ASBK again this year, so I'm in. Just throwing a thread up for anyone keen to come down.

It's on Easter weekend. Friday practice, and racing on Sat and Sun. I know we've got some support class entries ( thread is here: http://tarmactalk.com/forum/showthread.php?1330-Support-Class-for-Round-2-ASBK ).

Hope to see some spectators too! If anyone needs a ticket, just let me know :)

I'm in!! Bit of a step down from PI but I reckon it'll be a good turnout. :thumb:

Shittest feeling ever coming round hoping it wasn't you or Kris mate... That was hard to watch, bloody hell, that bloke that caused the carnage is so damn lucky Kris flipped his bike rather than run over his head. Very glad everyone is relatively okay...

By the end of that day running through gravel traps dragging smashed bikes on and off that trailer, I felt like I'd had a crash myself!

[Mr.Ed]

Was that Kris flipping the bike?? I was gonna say... whoever it was, probably saved that dude's life or at least saved him from a very lengthy recovery!! Terrible there were so many crashes but congrats on amazing reflexes nonetheless.

Certainly was me :(

Thankfully by some stroke of the luck the bike only suffered rear tail damage, brake lever guard and took a lug off the triple clamp, slight dent in the rear wheel. Everything else is unmarked - presumably because the bike landed on me, and old mate.

So close to his head, it wasnt funny.
