Wednesday 2nd April, 8pm, Whaddon Village Hall.

Presentation: Making the World’s Best Crash Protection.

Presented by Stef Cook and Tim Banks of GB Racing.

They will give a brief insight into GB Racing, what they do and why it works so well.

Also why you do not need to be a racer to benefit from their products.

On Wednesday 2 April about 30 members of the club welcomed Steff Cook, from Baldock based GB Racing, who presented a talk on engine protectors for motorcycles.

Steff outlined a brief history of the company and described how the protectors, made from a mixture called Long Glass Fibered Nylon, are manufactured on site in Baldock. With an extensive history in racing at British and World Superbike levels Steff illustrated his talk with both videos and examples of ‘tested’ products which are able to protect engine cases (and other areas of the bike) at speeds well in excess of those legally permitted on UK roads.

Overall a very interesting evening.

We used to say ‘it’s as easy as falling off a bike’.  Steff has demonstrated that there’s a real art and science to it!
