ALL PLEASE GO DONATE to 44Teeth Boothy's Isle of Man TT 2022 - CROWN FUNDING! He needs this support & love RIGHT NOW & for the future ! - Bike World please PIN THIS. Thank you.

I am 1 of the very small team who organize this event every year, we have just finished putting our Victorian park back as it was before you all arrived and catching up with all the feedback. I just wanted to say thank you so much for coming and glad you had fun in the sun this year. As you know we race whether rain or shine. When we see videos like this and the feedback from yourselves and everyone else it makes all the blood, sweat and tears we shed all year to put the event on very worthwhile. We have already begun working on Aberdare Park National Motorcycle Road Races 2023, so keep your eyes and ears open. 😎💜🤙🏍🏁

Hi Kirsty , Mike here (dog unit.) I have to say this is a great little promotional vid for Aberdare , it's surprising how many in bike world don't know it exists . I'd like to thank you all too because I was a spectator for years before last year and have thoroughly enjoyed , it's always been really well organised . Looking forward to next year already 👍🏻🙂👍🏻

Great racing Chris! Im the lad who knipped you to the line in that last one, great racing and you rode that gas gas so well!

Nice one Scott I felt like a right wally 😂. Mega race though!

I was a Marshall on turn 3 watched you all weekend that gasgas was amazing,,,well done Chris ..

I'm from Aberdare and years ago in the late 80's I went to watch the racing there with a mate who worked in the park as a gardener. One rider slid off after taking a corner too fast and as he slid across the road his bike went tumbling through the rather nice looking ornate rose beds. The spectators all went quite while waiting to see if the rider was ok (he was) but cutting through the silence you could hear one voice (my mate) saying "bloody motorcyclists, no respect for shrubbery".

In the late 70's I went with a couple of pals to watch the racing at Aberdare. One fella came off and hit a tree. He, like ourselves, was back the following year, he as a paralysed spectator in a wheelchair. I don't know how safety is there nowadays but back then, it was as dangerous as the TT, albeit at slower speeds.

@@michaelarchangel1163 the track surface has improved considerably, but the trees still line most of the outside of the track. So its still quite dangerous.

Second year for me and it was amazing to see Chris back with an even better line up of bikes. He was the perfect ambassador as always, infectious enthusiasm by the bucket load, happy to chat and just the coolest dude on and off track. That GasGas has also just gone onto my list of bikes I might need to take a closer look at as well! Hopefully see you all again next year!!! 👊😎

Great video, need to get back, Derek Smith and his crew run a fantastic race. Good luck for next season 👍

Now I want another NC35. Great video and awesome results 👏

I miss my 400 too. Just wish I knew how to ride better back then cos I crashed mine unnecessarily 😢

I went to Aberdare Road Racing in the mid 90's. A Supermoto Spec Kawasaki KX 500 was blowing everything into the Dust. He'd wheelie the whole start/finish straight every lap. Hero. I now have a KTM 640 LC4 in his honour!

Top work. Nice to see an NC30 in action again. I used to race a FZR400 EXUP

I’m from aberdare, love this, always loved the park races

Your enthusiasm is addictive,thks.

Thanks for sharing Chris. We love watching your vids bro. All best wishes from Perth WA.

Was there both days, the racing was abso fab. Everyone enjoyed your wheelies Chris. Sooooo relieved Milo Ward is relatively OK after his horrific crash on the Saturday.

You're a bloody legend Chris. Love the passion.

Awesome work on the Honda! This looks like a smashing event! Really enjoyed Al's video last year. Well done Chris!

I love the GasGas SM700. Great to see it properly ridden on a track as well!

Congratulations mate. Top job and great video. Got to love the purposefulness of the NC30. It just looks fantastic in its element.

Outstanding achievement, congrats! Seems you had a lot of fun! Unfortunately there (almost) are no such events here in Germany.

Cracking day out, excellent racing and t-shirt tan to boot ;)

Well done Chris, some fantastic racing and really well done on the NC400. You've come a long way since doing your online ACU course last year.

Love every bit of it. A true grassroot / tight local community event.

Absolutely love that little track. Also congrats👏 you did quite well. Always good seeing you race.

what a brilliant day..I love this.. I just had my first trackway on a 750 gixxer. defo want to race next year. epic work !

Awesome video guys! I’m restoring an NC 30 at the moment Chris so loved seeing it on the track! Well done on your wins man. Great racing.

Brilliant video . Great results Chris 👍👏. Been to aberdare park to watch racing a few times. What a place to get close to the racing. I think Mark Forsyth ,journalist and performance bikes rider rode a super motorcycle there years ago. Good stuff mate . Well done . 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Most excellent, one of your best

Love it... Happy Chris indeed!

It looks really FUN! thx Chris!😄

great to see some 400's in there, my favourite class!

Well that was just an awesome little video.

Met him in the paddock. Top bloke. Mad for it! GasGas was mad!!

Well done Chris. Looks like a great day out 😎

Amazing place. The paradise🏝

Very similar to Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy back in the day. Trees, off-camber corners, gravel patches, TZ350s and Katanas. Great days, wish they'd bring that back.

I was there on the Sunday, it was brilliant! I'll certainly be going again next year.. I didn't know you relied on a lucky dip for the grid places hahaa

NC30 is such a gem.

Serious commitment at 8:26 there.

Chris overdosing on adrenaline ! Need more race action for next year Chris, get one of the clan gemmed up on the camera 👍 Would love an NC30 or 35, but know I'm too big for one ☹

Good job Chris, it looks like more fun than a barrel of monkeys. And I seen you riding around the outside of Sir Al Fagen at one point as well. 👏👏👏🏁

That Honda still sounds amazing, surprised the super moto did so well against road bikes rad idea.

Loovveee it!

that honda sounds so good

Hot summer's day in the UK: 82 degrees F 😀

NC30 spread of power prevailed😍

Where is Chris? oh The psycho wheelieing in the middle of the pack 🤪 lol

Used to happen at Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy from 1948 to 1988 when they held the last ever race due to safety concerns. Nice to see that it's still taking place in Wales.

I saw the then new GSXR 1100 slabbies at Beveridge Park, I think the width of the "track" was less than Aberdare. The hairpin at the end of the straight was always interesting, if you overshot then you could be through the gates of the park onto a public road!!

Started the weekend on the stock settings from the manual and then switched to the ‘sport’ settings to firm it up a bit. Worked pretty well to be fair especially on the stick tyres. Given more time I would have played with making it a bit stiffer again as it moved around a fair bit on the brakes when I pushed hard.

The rear shock needs its rebound opened all the way. You can see the rear in the air over the small bump. It’s just not returning fast enough. If you push down on the rear you will see it slowly creep back up. Opened up it returns properly and won’t pack down.

Is that an old pushrod 125cc Honda engine on your shirt? I need one!

Think I saw some 44T leathers out there?

Give us an hour long version please

When I used to illegally race my Gamma600 stage 3 against those NC30,s they were always better handling round the twisties

See that? An old Honda can still kick ass
