Thanks Wes
We'll be there on Sunday, can't make Saturday qualifying as I've promised my neice that we will watch her singing at the Poundbury Food and Arts festival tomorrow.

Hi Guys
Well a day of mixed fortunes yesterday.
Race one result (10th) was good and proved that he can run times with some of the top half dozen, although Ryan did make things a bit more difficult by rubbing wheels and dropping back to 17th at one stage.
Race two ended on the floor after some "help" from another rider through the complex.
A couple of pics of Ryan and another from those entertaining sidecar boys..







Cheers Ian

Couldn't resist putting this pic up (borrowed from the BSB website) of Ryan ducking under Josh Brookes at the complex in race one.
A crowd of over 40,000 watched the action at thruxton last weekend.

A walk in the Park...aka... Time to strap on the big balls !!

The BSB circus stops off at Cadwell Park this weekend and day one has seen some very mixed conditions.
Dry for free practice #1 and so wet for this afternoons free practice #2 that many stayed in the warm and dry and didn't venture out on track.
Ryan loves this track and having only done a half dozen laps in the wet all season he took the opportunity to have a run out in both sessions today, he's learning more about getting the best out of the RAF Regular and Reserve/Lee Hardy Racing Kawasaki all the time.
Heres todays practice results..
Practice #1 (dry)
1. Josh Brookes (Be Wiser Ducati) 1m:27.221s
2. Danny Buchan (FS-3 Racing Kawasaki) +0.096s
3. Tommy Bridewell (Oxford Racing Ducati) +0.544s
4. Scott Redding (Be Wiser Ducati) +0.564s
5. Andrew Irwin (Honda Racing) +0.654s
6. Peter Hickman (Smiths Racing BMW) 0.664s
7. Ryan Vickers (RAF Regular & Reserve Kawasaki) +0.795s
8. Jason O'Halloran (McAMS Yamaha) +1.026s
9. Glenn Irwin (Tyco BMW) +1.220s
10. Christian Iddon (Tyco BMW) +1.220s

Practice #2 (wet)
1. Tommy Bridewell (Oxford Racing Ducati) 1m:40.223s
2. Josh Brookes (Be Wiser Ducati) +2.207s
3. Ryan Vickers (RAF Regular & Reserve Kawasaki) +3.508s
4. Claudio Corti (Team WD-40 Kawasaki) +5.410s
5. David Allingham (EHA Racing Yamaha) +5.866s
6. Bradley Ray (Buildbase Suzuki) +5.965s
7. Dean Harrison (Silicone Engineering Kawasaki) +6.345s
8. Peter Hickman (Smiths Racing BMW) +6.502s
9. Joe Francis (Lloyd and Jones Bowker BMW) +6.881s
10. Fraser Rogers (Gearlink Kawasaki) +8.011s

The rest of the weekend looks better weather wise so fingers crossed.
Cheers Ian
