    Where's the Gurney bubble?
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Interesting write up and the increase in confidence is typical 'RInger.
    Lap 5 is the usual one most have a crash/incident on
    Confidence grows but then mistake happens !!
    For me it was a short trip into the grass on lap 5 !

    Yeah, I'm not sure if it was lap 4 or 5 but my rear left wheel slipped onto the gravel on one of the rights turns due to late braking, but I managed to hold it...
    I am easily satisfied with the very best.

    If Matra is willing to invite us to a little Nürburgring UCP meeting at his place we could all see how well we do on lap 5

    I already bought my Stig helmet...

    I'm certainly willing to see how I'd do on lap 5...

    Fantastic trip, by the way.

    I just upgraded the internal combustion system on my bike, so I should be a-OK.

    Will you accept beer/Scotch as compensation for a place to sleep?
