Another fantastic day. It was lovely to see old faces from last year returning and new faces trying it out for the first time. A three mile course was marked out. With just over 100 special needs booked in, along with their helpers and family, the day has been busy. There were all size of bikes from Serrows to BMWs, quads, quads with trailers, four wheel drives, a two seater trials car and of course a sidecar.
We all started the day cautiously and slowly, but it wasn't long before shouts of faster, and squeals of laughter could be heard. We all have stories which made us laugh, mine came right at the start with my first passenger. A gentleman in his twenties was helped on board and told to hold on tight, so he grabbed my arms, this being a bit restrictive, I told him to hold my waist, his hands quickly moved under my arms on to my mammary glands. Fortunately I was still in neutral and firmly moved his hands down to my waist. I like to think this was all in innocence, I am sure it was.
Many people deserve a big thank you, but I won't mention names, except for Ross Fisher who was the driving force and instigator. His drive and organisation has meant that a lot of folk had a brilliant day today.
