Well that's the Spanish test's over and done with..
A pretty good result from Ryan and the RAF Regular and Reserve supported Kawasaki superbike team..
On combined times Ryan finished 3rd quickest at Monteblanco and 6th quickest at Jerez (a circuit he's never seen before) am I being foolish dreaming of a podium finish in BSB this season?
Here's a pic of "the man in black" getting down to it at Jerez

Very much so and Ryan often say's how proud he is to carry that number, also 3 x 7 = 21 which was his number in 600 superstock when he won that championship in 2018 by 150 points.Let's hope it's lucky 7 in 2020.

How fast is a superbike.
Well of course many of you will know but I have posted this for a bit of fun..

Watch his speedo go round to the stop
His lap times are shown at the top..
To give you some idea of the difference between this and a production based race bike at Snetterton this weekend Ryan on his BSB race bike was lapping around 14 seconds a lap quicker than this guy and Ryans times would have just got him into the top 10 in BSB superbike qualifying..
cheers
