Matt – Magny-Cours (July 2011)

Magny-Cours
It was a pretty confident start to the weekend after we found a good setup earlier in the week at Assen, when Triumph Race Support assisted us on setting up the bike. Unfortunately our mechanic had some car problems which delayed him for the first practice. This put a lot of pressure on the team [...]

Matt – Ledenon (June 2011)

Ledenon (24th – 28th June 2011)
It was a catastrophic start to the weekend when a racer cut in front of me at 145mph after he was touring on the racing line. Fortunately we had a sufficient amount of spares to fix the bike and get it back out on circuit for the rest of the [...]

kurt – Nogaro

Nogaro – 6th – 8th May, 2011
Friday: On the Friday was our first time riding at Nogaro this was difficult because we only had a day to learn such a tricky track. We used the day to learn the track and gave the mechanic chance to set up the suspension correct for the race to [...]

Matthew – Nogaro

Nogaro – 6th to 9th May 2011
It was a slow start to the weekend with a new track to learn and new bike settings to get right.
The times slowly got faster throughout practice, and by first qualifying I qualified 27th out of a grid of 39 on destroyed tyres. Unfortunately the tyres got worse, and [...]

Kurt – Le Mans (March 2011)

Le Mans
We arrived at lemans on the Thursday and seeing the track and other teams was great because of all the years I have wanted to race at such a famous track.
On the Friday we had two practice sessions, which gave us the chance to get used to the fast speeds of the track and [...]

Matt – Le Mans

Le-Mans – 25th – 27th March 2011

We had a steady pace at the start of the practice, as we had never ridden Le-Mans before. Our mechanics and team boss helped set-up the suspension on the new bike. After the second session we were down to a 1.49. Which was respectable for our first day at [...]

Kurt – Ledenon (March 2011)

First had the bikes.
When we first had the bikes I was amazed with how big they where. We had a lot of work to do on them to put them into race trim and spent many nights working on them. We just about got the bikes complete for when we left. After having some photos [...]

Matt – Ledenon

Ledenon Circuit – 19th – 21st March 2011

A great time for our first day out on the new Triumph 675R. The power of the new 675 is immense and its talk curve just spins up a standard road tyre when getting on full gas.
We were moving up the group’s day by day at Ledenon rolling [...]

Matt #99 – Oulton – 17th July 2010

This was unusual as it was only a one day meeting. Once again, this is another new circuit to me and was my first time riding at Oulton Park in my racing career. After a quick walk of the circuit I had then had 15 minutes to ride in practice and learn it. The weather [...]
