Our weekend plans changed unexpectedly as suddenly both of the motos were our of picture. On Saturday the rider was testing the newly designed Totana track with Kawasaki, but after completing the second round we noticed that one of the front fork was leaking oil. As it was almost streaming more than just dropping, we concluded it was better to stop riding as oil was heading to front brake disk. The KTM had already spent a week in Antonio's garage waiting to get the suspension fixed, but due to unfortunate pilots (breaking their bikes just before the big race on Sunday) its delivery was postponed to Monday. You can watch some riding at Totana with Antonio link below.
Fortunately the weather was on our side and because we couldn't ride on Sunday we spent a nice day laying by the pool for a change. On Monday we continued with the same theme during the afternoon and headed then to Antonio's after siesta. KTM was already waiting and we also got the front fork fixed, so now both bikes are like new again. The assistant also was once again wondering the quick daily changes in Spanish weather. At noon, on the sun, the bikinis were exactly the right thing to wear.. and 6 hour later, just before sunset, the winter jacket was well needed on a field while shooting the rider's figure-of-eight circulation (sounds a bit dum but is actually a really good training). Anyhow, no complains. Compared to the news we have read about the current Finnish weather up to -39c record temperature this is more then fine.
Some pictures of Toledo are now uploaded and can be seen in the link below.
