What a great bloke to let you ride his bike. Top man

@adrianwilson3220 6 ай бұрын

Not made of glass, you far to honest, I love it thanks Lee.

@craiganderson3795 6 ай бұрын

I absolutely love how straight forward and honest your videos are. No bull, warts and all look at the reality of being a racer. Keep em coming!

@poc329 6 ай бұрын

Lee. The main thing is that you are OK. What a great guy Clive is. I'm looking forward to the next Vlog. Have missed Neil's happy smiling face. Good luck for 2024

@Besty66 6 ай бұрын

Neil's face would put a smile on a rice pudding! lol

At least you survived without injury which is a blessing, and all that matters.

@bobstheword620 6 ай бұрын

Great vid as always, the honesty as opposed to bravado is refreshing. I hate to be self indulgent but you did mention about going to track days alone. At 37 I'm about to do my first track days this year. Hints or tips from you or anyone else here is muchly appreciated. Also my mum doesn't know I ride motorbikes, so high five to all you out there hiding your bikes

@nigelbaldwin752 6 ай бұрын

Be smooth, don't over try, if you start getting ragged back off a bit and relax. Most of all enjoy the experience and just focus on the small improvements which will come.

@bazzer107 6 ай бұрын

Everthing @nigelbaldwin752 said plus I would add, make sure you bike is in good order, your tyres are good, you have a lever guard fitted and have a back protector on. Clothing wise, helmet, above the ankle motorbike boots, full length leather gloves, one piece or two piece leathers (Two piece MUST zip all of the way around the waist). Most trackday companies will have an instructor who help you/give you advice, don't work about speed, take you time and enjoy it. P.S. Watchout, it's very addictive 😉

@SeanDring 6 ай бұрын

Nobody wins practices. Just don't over-ride the bike and give yourself time. Soo many times I've seen fast guys ruin their days because they went hell-for-leather way too early in their session. I even saw some guys crash their bikes on the 2nd corner of the day. Save the red mist for racing.

@Don8789 6 ай бұрын

Bring a tyre pressure gauge. If you come by car, take a chair. For a first trackday it is best to start with trackdays that have beginners in little groups of 3-5 riders behind an instructor rather then straight out onto the track by yourself. The instructor can give you loads of good tips. The main difference compared to road riding is that you will develop a much better feel for the front tyre, (trail)braking into corners with the front brake applied. This loads the front suspension and tyre and makes all the difference.

@TrackDayTona 6 ай бұрын

Watch YT vids of track days at the track you are going to. Get familiar with lines, braking points, turn ins, etc. You will be crapping yourself before the first session, but you will feel amazing after. Enjoy!

Great vlog once again, always look forward to them, it looked painful admitting you missed Neil being along 😂 but it shows the good friendship you both have, even if he wouldn't admit it, it obviously showed on your road to recovery. Glad you escaped injury from your spill, bikes can always be repaired. Can't wait for the next episode, keep them coming Lee 😊🏍️

We have a garage and spare bedrooms too, and you're welcome to stay and save a few quid. I'm one of Nialls fellow instructors at Silverstone, so I know how much gear you need to bring over. Steve
