Re: Ready for the battle!
Matt, you are talking to sidecar drivers. Half of them still use Whitworth spanners
, you can usually find one that nearly fits and if not there is always the adjustable or hammer and screwdriver
, so 73kg probably won't mean much to some of them
whereas 11st 7lbs (that is stones and pounds for the benefit of the young ones) will let them know your weight
They might also want to know if you are a novice at passengering or have experience, if so on what type of sidecars (vintage, classic, F1, F2, etc.). Perhaps give an idea about which part of the country you are based too. All drivers will take it for granted that you are a 'nut job', you are wanting to be a passenger
.
Good luck in getting a ride and I hope you get one that will carry you to the chequered flag although your guarantee that you will push the outfit there might help

Re: Ready for the battle!
Hi John, had pretty much given up on trying. Looking for a front of the pack ride as I take it serious when the lid is on. If you are intending on being top 50% across the chequered flag then we can talk.
