Re: OZ MotoGP
It's on my 'wish list'. Methinks that it will not compare with a wet Donnington Park, sitting by the old hairpin in the pishing wet. Gimme ozzy anytime!
You going yerself?

Re: OZ MotoGP
Yep just booked the circuit and camp site tickets tonight.....
Going over with a few kiwi's on the thursday coming back monday...
Can't wait...i've done Donington in most conditions as a spectator and racer (the gravels nice at the hairpin..) but always wanted to go to Phillip island. Stoner hopefully will wait until then to clinch the title

Never raced Donny myself, though the Craner Curves always get my juices flowing. Cadwell was my 'mecca' track, with Brands GP a close second. Raced a Yammy TZR250 with this bunch (www.ypmrc.co.uk) for 3 years. Loved it, and going to look at getting involved in the race scene over here once things settle down a bit.
Cheers re the Avatar. The pic was taken by me where T used to work - apparently some workmen just wheeled it in one day and went ''scuse me miss, where'd'ya want the bike?!''. Then they set it up in the foyer. I didn't believe her at first when she told me, and was then over there in a shot!!!

Re: OZ MotoGP
You would have been a bemsee regular (good bunch of people) then racing one of them ring ding a dings.
I'm talking to a few people at the moment about rides here and spent today at Pukekohe at a post classic/bears meeting....good fun.
If you get up this way at all or we get our visit to Crch sorted we'll have to grab a beer and talk bikes.....
There is a chance if something i'm looking at comes off that we'll be doing the Nationals and three rounds are on the S.island so keep you in touch with it.
