Spa endurance 2019

[KATANAMANGLER]

Well, originally I intended to come to Spa to cover the Rooster Racing team in the 4hr endurance race. I applied for a press pass and it was accepted.

Don Hill and Rooster Racing are running 2 bikes this year with 6 riders and a team of 18 people. Don was going to manage one of the teams himself but he wants to be able to concentrate on the  bikes so he has asked me to manage one of the teams in his stead.

This means my article will now be from inside the action.

Wish us all luck.

I rode accross France last week and it was 40 degrees. Imagine  a giant hair dryer pointed at you for 8 hours.

There is good chance it will be fast but based on my first 24hr as team 81 manager the stress comes with the territory but that's down to the organisers

How’s Doreen coping?

[Rustynail]

Have a great time and good luck to everyone Now that's multi-tasking, race team manager and press editor

Looking forward to the write up @KATANAMANGLER

Go Rooster Racing!

This weekend was beyond special..

[KATANAMANGLER]

I will be writing a more comprehensive account of the weekend for our news page so I'll keep this short.

After an amaizing weekend Rooster Racing got a 3rd and 4th place in the open class. What a pleasure and an honour it was to be part of that experience.

Go Rooster Racing! Go Winged Hammers!
