Re: Clubs

Re: ITV 4

One crew flying at Brands, one crew 'no show'. And one other didnt go out because of 'gearing' problems. Didnt used to take me long to change my gearing.......even without a team of mechanics. Off topic i know.......but there ya go ;)

ITV4 at 8pm, and we can all have a look-see. glad all involved are ok (ish) shame about the usual social media shit-fest. Mind you, a lot of comments seem to have been taken down now.
