Back at Cadwell with a client today. Our new coaching support vehicle 'Gladys' although not totally customised yet, seems to work well for the video debrief.

'Frank' is making new friends.
Coaching at Cadwell on a classic trackday. 'Frank' has special dispensation to be out with his new friends. It's very cold and very wet. Again.

Not so lucky today.
Here at Oulton it's definately wet, wet, wet. Just went out for our sighting laps, and now it's time to change...

Back to Donington.
I hope the weather holds for my client today. He rides a lot on the road round London, doesn't use warmers and has no wets or spare wheels.

A brew and a video review.
My coaching client today has never ridden Donington before and he's due to race here so we're having a run round. Was awful and wet when we arrived but drying up nicely now.

War of attrition.
Well the win has come at last; but to be honest the track was horrendous. Slippy and unbelievably greasy. Led off the line but lots went down behind me. Then someone blew up and it was called to a halt seven laps in. Half points but hey, 'a win's a win'.

Qualifying.
We just have the one session. On pole right until the last bl@&dy lap when both Marty Nutt and Sam Coventry sneaked up on me. What is good for the class though is that 14 bikes are within a second. I'm so proud of my nephew Ryan who has qualified 25th. Go Ryan go!
Free practice.
At last we got out on track. I don't think there's a lot of grip to be had, as experienced two monster slides. Swapped top times with Marty Nutt; I came in to alter something with a couple of minutes to go and he snatched the top spot from me. We both did a 49.3 with Darren Fry next on a 49.6 - but it was only practice. Qualifying is at 17.05hr.
Ready to rock.
Another hour to go before untimed practice. Seems to have been an eternity waiting to get on track.

Seat bump specialist.
Done Sarah's and now just tailoring Steve's to fit. We're not on track today so plenty of time to do jobs.

On the way.
Van is loaded and we're all on the way to Brands Hatch for the opening round of the Ducati 848 Challenge.
