Racing

I'm thinking of adding Road race to my ACU license this year.
What's the cheapest racing I can get into?

I like the look of the cb500 series.

 

You should have piped up earlier - there was an endurance bike and kit
for sale.

As an aside - just 'cos Champ's bottle's gone, did that really mean
that *everyone* else had to throw in the towel, too?

That was way too expensive for my needs. Especially the running costs
£10,000 a year.
I barely earn that!

It's very competitive, you should also consider the mini-twin series.

No such thing, just less expensive.

 

Is there a CG125 series?

 

Yeah but I want to go slowly on my own thank you.

 

Well yes but with my enduro racing (which I don't want to give up) I need
something cheap.

 

Not if you're 6'2" and 16.5 stone there isn't.

 

Nice idea, but I've seen 2 (Wet and dry) ready prepped CB500's for £2k!

 

You, are a star!

What a good idea to see if I like it!

 

MZ Cup.......the old 2 stroke 250 jobs........

 

I forgot about the rentals, I few of our girls rented them last season.

 

Any good? Did they race on them?

 

'cheap racing' = oxymoron, but I think that you've gathered that!

back in my day it was LCs (or MZs if you were weird), but that info's
no good to you now.

 

Yes, our Susie was doing 1:04's around Pembrey on one.

Now, don't take this the wrong way (ahem) , but were any of them born women?
Just a question...

All bar one of the ones there.

Okay - good stuff. I just have a small issue [1] with the "hah blokes can't
take it" etc thing when it's coming from people who used to be blokes.




[1] I don't know why.
