One last spin before home:

24 July: Had my ass well and truly kicked today. I had so enjoyed the Mallory Park circuit that I decided to give it one more go before heading back to SA. Flying out the next day I was in no mood to pack my bags and could not resist giving the bike one more spin. I felt good on the ride out to the circuit, so was surprised when a five man break went from the gun. By the second lap I was struggling to stay on the back and was wondering why I was running out of steam. By the third lap I resigned myself to slipping off the back and coasting to the finish. It was such a beautifull evening I was not worried about the humiliation of being lapped and opted to take a slow ride home. With the sun setting behind me this was the perfect end to a great UK trip . . . now to get this bike back to JHB is going to be fun!!
