My first day as a Flag Marshal........ My first "bit of excitement"...... The first words, of a green faced, high sided rider. Just after opening his good eye......... :palm: David D |

Didn't know you did flag marshall. I never have. Now, swmbo has. She did some volunteer work for Keith Code (of twist of the wrist fame) on the flags. Been down more times than I like to think of. One day I will get on the track. I have a track bike I am aquiring parts for. |

I said similar things every time I crashed the race car - the marshal comes running over to see how you are "I'm fine, hows the car???" David - I've raced a few times at Cadwell park (tintops, not motorbikes, you've got to be some shade of crazy to go round there on a bike), it's easily my 2nd favourite track, only narrowly pipped by Oulton Park. The Gooseneck and Mountain are probably the best bits, Hairpin is quite entertaining too, as I usually arrive at it sideways... Happy days, we didn't go there this year unfortunately, hopefully it'll be back on the calendar next year. |

Ade. I was a member of Batley Motorcycle Club during '60,s & 70's. Loved Cadwell. Never raced. But thoroughly enjoyed several rides out to Marshal position, on my Bonnie, and later, Lightning....... :thumbup: David D |

Ahh Cadwell, that brings back memories, mainly of A&E at Louth Hospital. I was that well known there, I used to get Christmas cards and knew all the nurses by the first name. My one regret was that I have very few decent photo's of that time when racing, mainly because no one took pictures of the St John ambulances :lol: Prescott hill climb 1969, me in the chair, the white on my shoulder is off the wall on the last corner. Sidecar drivers always think they are riding solo :loco: |
