You are pretty close pete. he was a biker from 16 to 30, but saw one of his mates die in front of him and has never ridden a bike since. He still watches all the racing, but has never got on a bike again

Ouch!
I feel for him, I really do. I can certainly see his point of view. I've always been a little more pragmatic and relied on the fact there are plenty of other riders out there behaving like knobs and far more likely to become a statistic than me. ... And if it's no ones fault and I've just been unlucky, well it could have just as easily been a bus whilst crossing the road (or choking on the Mrs cooking :wink: ) at least I,ve lived and done it the way I want to :D
Have a great weekend, the Sunday weather looks like it should give some good racing :thumbup:

Hey Al,
I'll be there as well!
A mate and I are driving down overnight tonight, aiming to get to the circuit just before opening time tomorrow. :thumbup:

Cheers,
Matt

Saw a red one in the carpark near gate 16 (not the bike park). It was chained to an R1.

its the only way an R1 could possibly keep up with a red storm.
