I managed a 3rd place yesterday at Bush road races on my RMKD tuned bike
Just goes to show that with the right bike even a fat old boy like me can still get a good result
I'm currently 4th in both Ulster and Irish 400 road race championships
Best race result for ages

I enjoyed that race even the bits of rain didn't bother me.......................................................the only bit of that circuit I dont like is the Essess really horrible in that section.
But I love the fast section with the jumps and bumpy bits down the hill................I can get top gear through there with the bike skipping over the bumps just love it.
You doing Armoy ?

Oh yes - did it for the first time last year and loved it.
The 400 was a real cutie at the Bush compared to the 600 - it just wanted to eat grass

I did Armoy for the first time too last year and it's up there as one of my favourites now. New shiny shock since last year so just hoping to beat my previous best.

Re: Best race result for ages
Once I did Armoy I was reminded of Temple..............you guys might not remember Temple I rode in the last ever race there and Armoy is defo as bonkers as the Temple was.
If we could have Temple back I'd be there in a heatbeat
