I'd had the bike for ten years on 1st August, but have done less and less miles every year, with it now having covered 24000 (had 4002 when I bought it). That 20000 inca a road trip to Valencia Moto GP in 2005 and to Le Mans Moto GP in 2010.
Started of by doing the California Superbike School @ Rockingham. With Level One completed I only did 30 mile on the road all summer.
So I decided to do my first Euro Track Day @ Portimao in sunny Portugal with No Limits.
However Day One was a wash out thanks to the tail end of the storm that battered the Uk.
Days two and three were a little better.....
Stayed with a friend in his villa

A very well run event by the No Limits Team inc the Infamous Tea Urn.
After a shakey start, i increased in confidence every session. Really enjoyed the weekend and I've just booked a return trip in May 2014.
