Oh good as I seem to remember people always fell off regularly when it was wet.

Did you use your 10 or something else and what tyres were you running?

Any tips as I've not done Donny at all

I've done it on my 10, but have one advantage actually have Racetec Intermediate wets on bike.

Any advice: just take your time and get a few laps in just to feel the lie off the ground!
