Buddies for Snetterton 

Hi everyone,

We have several rookies joining us at Snetterton and, while I know everyone will muck in, it would really help to know ahead of time who is happy to be nominated as a Buddy. Ideally I'd like a couple for each rookie so that no one has to spread themselves too thinly.

We have both Experience Bikes booked so Chris will be tied up there. He could also do with an extra pair of hands if anyone isn't racing.

If you can let me know  and also whether you are planning to be do the Friday test day.

Cheers,

Sarah

Re: Buddies for Snetterton 

 

Barry - your well exercised ringpull finger will come in handy when it comes to pointing a rookie in the direction of signing on and scruitineering. I'm also pretty sure that your sixth sense will lead them to the bar in the evening. That pretty much covers the bulk of Buddy duties. If they need a hand with spannering then just introduce them to someone else, which is basically anyone apart from Dennis.
So can I put your name down then?

Re: Buddies for Snetterton 

I remain perplexed by how little I can know about mechanics... and how little I'm able to absorb given how much goes wrong!! That aside I'm happy to help with buddies as well... (still haven't renewed my license though

Re: Buddies for Snetterton 


We could do with 2 or 3 more Buddies if possible - I'm aiming for 3 Buddies for every 2 rookies to share the load/love. As well as the 2 riders on the Experience, we've got another 7 rookies but this does include some we already know e.g. from the Experience or the Rider school.

Buddies - so far we've got:
Graham #68
Taff #85
Dennis #10
Baza #18

Plus Instructors
Deano #37
Des #24  (maybe?)

Ta.

Re: Buddies for Snetterton 

I'm racing but will not be doing the Friday testing so will be available to help out.

Warning: mechanical knowledge a little above zero.

Thanks Tim, Ian ..everyone

Mechanical knowledge is helpful but not essential. Reminding Rookies to put tyre warmers on and giving them the nod to get ready to go out goes ALONG way!
