Not sure what you mean there mate? Only done Cadwell once before this (and bought my first track bike this year) I would say I'm definitely in the novice skillset.
@@SuggyRacing just saying didn't see anyone overtake you but you were overtaking everyone else. Been on plenty of track days where faster riders book lower groups to feel like the big man. Not say that's what you did, but if you spend your sessions overtaking everyone else, go up a group and test yourself.
@@adamhuxley1129 Yeah it varies with rider skill set. I can't speak for everyrone else but only judge my own experience and confidence on a bike/track. My goal is to try an intermediate group this year if I feel ready for it. If you see my Oulton video, you'll see people passing me. Just depends on the riders who happen to book that day. 👍
@@theninjas39 Yeah that's how I though about it too. There's always someone quicker. 😊 I think it's too easy to jump up a group, wind the throttle back trying to keep up, them causing an issue. My gearing is all over the place too. Gotta sort that out. So much going through your head and I only saw how bad it was when I watch the video back.
I raced at Cadwell park in the 80s its got to be one of the best circuits for bikes out there. There were no track days back then I think just practiced days on Wednesdays. Enjoyed watching the video, thanks. It does look a bit scary though when so many people don't know what line to take and if you want to go past you have to expect anything. It's much easier when everyone else knows what they are doing! You had to wear an orange bib until you had done enough races to get your licence signed off so everyone knew to beware of the novice!
Yeah it's an amazing track isn't it. Its my fav. Yeah we have it wear the orange bibs too. It definitely helps as some of the riders have given me more space 😂
Damn, the dude on the Ducati had zero corner speed. I remember a similar experience on my 600 with people blasting away down the 2 straights on 170hp bikes and then being all over the place in the corners.
Ha ha I know. Safe to say I needed a change of pants after that. Still can't figure out what he was doing? He looks back at me like 'mate, what you doing back there?' ha ha
There's always a mix of people at the tracks. If you ever get chance to come over, it is a great track. I'm sure you've seen the BSB racing from last weekend? This is probably my favourite track in the UK. 😁👍
Ha ha. Yeah it wasn't great! I was lucky to not come off or take us both out. Not sure if you've seen, but i have a new video of me at Cadwell from last week, in my videos. Did a little better this time ☺️
Excellent example of a non-novice rider 'winning' the novice group

Correct group in my opinion mate- still loads to learn but going well . Somebody has to be fastest in the novice group , same as any other group !

I have now done 5 or 6 track days at Cadwell. Awesome track
Yeah it's amazing, it's definitely my fav. Technical but fun and the same time 😎👍
The incident is at 9:20 mark.
I was here on the 6th Sept, Red group. Had to hire a bike as my I binned my bike on Donnington last month and its waiting repair.
:) was a good day
Orange boots seemed to be using some unusual braking markers?
Ha ha yeah I thought so too. 😂
Damn, the dude on the Ducati had zero corner speed. I remember a similar experience on my 600 with people blasting away down the 2 straights on 170hp bikes and then being all over the place in the corners.
Hey. Yeah it's a classic track day issue isn't it. It's why I don't have a 1000cc bike as I'd probably do the same 😂
Always concerning when the rider in front does a lifesaver tipping into the bend!
Ha ha I know. Safe to say I needed a change of pants after that. Still can't figure out what he was doing? He looks back at me like 'mate, what you doing back there?' ha ha
Haven’t done Cadwell but seems to be the issue with narrower tracks. Fair play for staying on..!
I want to go there, but i don't know how to get there. I'm from France. Have you seen any foreigner at this track?

That guy at 9.20 was having a lovely time 😖🤦♂️
Ha ha I know, pottering along, looking at the trees 😂🤦
@@SuggyRacing I had one of those at snet, done a toprak stoppie (maybe slight exaggeration) 🤦♂️
Ha ha yeah it's annoying isn't it. It's when they just decide to stop regardless of what's happening behind them. Stupid really
What camera set up do you have?
I've got a hero 8 at the front on the yoke, a hero 5 for the rear cam and I also use hero session for rear cam too. 👍
The clouds look like they're CGI
Ha ha like the Simpsons clouds. It was perfect weather conditions that day.
What a 🛎 end on the gixxa
Ha ha. Yeah it wasn't great! I was lucky to not come off or take us both out. Not sure if you've seen, but i have a new video of me at Cadwell from last week, in my videos. Did a little better this time ☺️
@@SuggyRacing I will take a look mate. We have the same bike 🚴. A gixxa nearly took me out yesterday by being to cool!
You’re in the wrong group !!!!!
I would agree if I was able to get my gearing sorted. It's all over the place 🤣 But yep, I'm going to try inters next 👍
Defintly not these novice aren’t even breaking the speed limit
@@gapmandan-ttv6408 70mph on track isn't it? 🤣
It’s terrible I’m embarrassing considering I’m getting elbow down on roads in the uk 😂
How sweet parade laps at a track day
9.20 🫣🫣🫣
Ha ha I know, I was like wtf?? Luckily I stayed on
I hope you got moved up from novice. You clearly aren't you just wanted to show off
😂 yes, that's exactly what I was doing. Still there showing off 😁
