Rockingham rain
unfortunately for today's coaching client. We will just have to get on and make the most of it.
Snetterton
Nice and sunny for my first client there last week. He only lived a few miles away so rode to the track.

Little holiday.
Here we are having a small break at Rockingham for a couple of days. 'Cato' can not believe he's getting a second wash in as many months!

Back to Oulton.
Today's coaching client only lives round the corner so rode his bike here this morning.

Qualifying.
Quite happy with 3rd place on the grid. Banked a reasonable time then came in and waited in pitlane for last few minutes to go for a push. On my outlap the session was red flagged as Peter Hasler jumped off and that concluded qualifying. He's okay but not racing today.

Practice.
For some reason the bike feels really hard. Got to work on some ideas to make it more compliant for qualifying tomorrow.
Lots of time.
Waiting around for our practice session, got time to give track tips to some of my coaching clients who are also racing here this weekend.

Yamaha Past Masters - TZR - Invitation.
John 'Jock' Walker kindly invited me to ride his TZR at Oulton Park in the Bemsee Yamaha Past Masters Race.
I hadn't ridden a TZR since 1988 when I won the JuniorStock British Championship on one.
I was interested to see if the memory was better than the reality...
Gorgeous weather at Oulton Park - just getting out for my first ride on a TZR since 1988...

We've entered in the EDI400 event as well to get a bit more practice on the bike. Just finished qualifying with them and managed 5th - but the bike has lost it's 'edge' from this morning. Got to try and find out what's up before our qualifying proper.
Thanks to John 'Jock' Walker for inviting me to ride his bike - we had a frenzied hour or so looking for the 'edge' - but we found it and lots of other broken bits and pieces in the stator - pleased to get pole position for him.

Free practice.
You guessed it. The rain came the exact moment we rode down pit lane. There was no point going out and getting the bike all dirty just for Ray to spend the night cleaning. Qualifying is at 9am tomorrow.

Donington 848 fest.
I'm here having a lovely one to one coaching day with my client at Donington today, only to have four Ducati 848 competitors rock up and squeeze in the garage.

Sunny day at Silverstone.
Just having a run round to capture some footage so I can do a tutor DVD and get to know 'Cato' a bit more.
