Inspected bike today and found that during the race the front sprocket nut came off. :80:

Don’t know how long it was running without it. Obviously chain runs nice and true.....

I'm guessing that to shed valuable grams you took the front sprocket cover off too... :lol:

Must have been laser guided set up and tightened to perfection!

I assume you didn't do it then :lol:

Well done to one and all on an excellent result - though in one of the photos there are two #4 P&Ms on the track at once, could that explain lap times and the number of laps recorded??? :erm: :erm: :wink:

I may have to have a go at one or more of the classic races myself next season :D :D 8) 8)

During practice, Hugh didn’t have enough time to get up to speed, so we accelerated it by Pete following him and then leading – RB actually agreed to it too. Put video up soon.

Plenty of proposed meetings and plenty to do at the workshops. Had debrief and commitment meeting on Saturday
