That does not look to bad .... I'm sure the start hill has got smaller though... I remember it being like a mountain:)

Glenrothes track comparison



Looks like Glenrothes has stood still for 20 years.  Only difference is their is no one in the left picture.

Fort William



Someone else posted this on talk.  Thought I would post for anyone who hasn't saw this old pic.

"Looks like Glenrothes has stood still for 20 years."

Too true, 

[MarkMcPake]

New gate seems to be a big improvement, Louder Clearer and smoother - Well done Guy's

[Skin]

[mike fraser]

Brilliant day again everyone.

I was surprised at how I went considering how totally crap I felt!  One day I might even stay off the sauce.................................................... mmmmmmaybe......

Anyhow, great turnout, some fantastic racing and it's also good that we seem to have more people commiting themselves to helping.  It should make a big difference to us.  The more people we can get involved then the more leverage we have when it comes to get funding etc.

Great to see everyone having a good old laugh, hopefully I can make it over on Sunday.

another good day, as always. thanks to everyone who has helped get the club to where it is and thanks to everyone who has show interest in taking the club forward.

we have a great group and together I know we can make the club even better. we have some promising talent coming through which we need to encourage and nurture for the future.

great racing again in all classes. I maybe shouldn't have raced after my crash. I am lay here with a very swollen and bruised heel which I cant bear any weight on now.

anyway, see you on the gate thursday

What a great bunch all looking to take the club to the next level. Let's work to keep that together. I'm very excited about the club and the direction it's going. Even more excited that we have some impressive young talent at the track.

Some fab racing as well today. 2 motos for the 7-8 yo boys and the 17+, and a full gate for the old school. The random gate worked a treat and surprisingly didn't trip anyone up.

Personally, I had a poor days racing. Just not fit enough whilst the others are improving. Having said that I still think I'm skooting round the track faster than I ever have and the bike control is improving...must try harder. 

Marc - put some strapping on your ankle, keep it elevated and plenty of ice 

Looking forward to 21st June

Nice video Gogo, they did look pretty damn fast!  Stevo managed to get most, if not all, of the races on video, so he'll be uploading that over the course of the week I imagine.  More new faces at the track today which is great to see, hope they had a good time and we see them again at the track soon!

[Rab-Lambie]

well just my luck, i video'ed all the old school races and for some reason can only manage to get one of the videos off the camera. to make matters worse, its the same race gogo has just loaded but from a different area of the track.

had a great day today catching up with you all, Ian-A, Scott-N, Scott-D, Bret-A, Gogo, Sean-B, the Two Kennys... "kuwahero"... sorry mate forgot your name ... and anyone else i had a chat with. thanks to all those that gave me a go on their bike also... very much appreciated! ill have my own bike for the next meet for sure. I think ill have to pop through midweek sometimes also to get my confidence etc back after 20 years of zero riding. 

Ill load up the other races once i suss out why they arent coming off my camera.
