Na, you're all right.

Been there, back when I was young enough.

Besides, the competition's too stiff!

Yeah.

Twoz '96. John Burden ran with me for that event, as he was thinking of buying an Extreme from TD.

Had a good race that year, piping Roy Smith at the post to take 1st overall, having followed him for the whole race at 90%, and just turned the oul 'wick' up to 100% for the last half a lap.

John went on to buy the E26, but turned out to be an 'also ran'.

Happy days.

A pic from that race.
