Day 8

Happy Birthday Dad!
Straight to the track and  prep the bike. Out and on it from the start! I had a brilliant battle with one of the Dutch riders who was just getting the better of me before lunch.  Again some small adjustments to my tyre pressures recommended by Sarah and after lunch I was back on it.  Posting my fastest lap of 58 seconds.  Also Ethan Sparks was back on track so we all had someone really fast to chase.  I learnt loads about my new bike trying to keep up with Ethan, Josh and Marco and eventually managed to keep the throttle pinned through the last corner onto the straight.  Sarah was really happy with my riding and said that my body position especially my head was a lot better.  Can I just send a big get well soon out to Marco, who had a crash and broke his arm!  Speedy recovery mate can't wait for you to get back out on track.
Dad also says a big thank you to everyone for the card and Birthday wishes and a special thanks to Sarah, for sorting the card, Chelsea and Dan for the cake and Lisa for sorting the Social Media coverage.  He had a lovely evening and would have liked to have spent more time with you but I was tired and wanted my bed.
