20070205

Now fully qualified!

So last Friday saw me, Red, Ben and Sam pootle on up to Brands Hatch (in a hire car, the van's still not done  ) for the Focused Events Instructor training day.  The lineup consisted of four sessions - one with Kevin Healy and Steve Plater giving us information on how to be a good instructor, and what was expected of us; one with Mick Grant talking about suspension; one with Pirelli talking about tyres; and finally a St John's Ambulance talk about first aid.

It was a enjoyable day - saying hello to some friends I've not seen in a while, and meeting some new faces too.  I'm sure I'll meet even more as the year goes on.  And I did learn lots from the day too, about all kinds of stuff!  At the end we were given our certificates for completing the course, along with some goodies like a Focused Events paddock shirt, and of course the all important orange instructor bib.

So roll on some more track days!  I'm looking forward to getting out there...just need my van back now.

On a seperate note, I managed to get my forks fitted this weekend - I can't *wait* to try them out!
