Getting up at 7am, driving an ancient transit to a desolate former
airfield, now race track, unloading bike and kit, getting
scrutineered, changing into leathers and then scaring your self in

The afternoon is often even better.

doing the job. Not all insist that you wear any of your race kit, they
just want to see it.
