For me track days are about riding my bike on track, the social stuff I can do any time.

Mind you,over here the bods in A&E are bored shitless because all the usual punters are staying away from hospital. The local new interviewed a doc who was practically begging for customers! My cousin has retired from nursing and they told her not to come in,as they didn't need help.
A lady I know fell and hurt her wrist last week,she was in,x-rayed,patch up and out within 30mins of landing in A&E.
So if you have to lob it up the road and do yourself a mischief,ironically now may be a good time.
Yes and no... in the news they reckon a lot of people are staying away from A&E so with the Covid caseload gradually decreasing there's less of a problem pulling people out of the red zones to look after joyriding numpties. However, in the same paper it said that up to 20% of Covid cases are hospital acquired from infected but asymptomatic hospital staff.

We're confident that's how my wife caught it. She was hospitalised, by ambulance, overnight in A&E at Derby royal for a severe migraine on the 12th of March. she didn't go to work or go out and socialise etc. because she was still suffering repeated migraines until the 16th. She showed first symptoms of COVID-19 on the 17th........
The ambulance crew and all of the hospital staff were working without any PPE or quarantine measures in place....

Apart from a lot of crashes, it seemed to go well

The bloke who fell off on the start straight was impressively stupid.
My first track day this year is going to be July 10th Cadwell, assuming it doesn't get cancelled (again)
