must be a hard decision to make , I don't think any of us would hang up our boots if we thought we had a chance at a top ten finish and he still has a reasonable chance of being a regular top 3 contender , plus the pay is pretty good .

Cadwell, local, done a ton of laps there and being so tight and phsyical makes it such a joy to ride/race. Secondly oulton for how crazy it is and third, snetterton, the one place i feel mega at home on, can get absolutley onnit quite quickly there

So sorry to hear this Itchy. Don't quite know what to say here but I think everyone else has said it perfectly. Spend as much time as possible but don't dwell on not being able to see him all the time. I'm sure he understands perfectly. Thoughts out to you Itchy

I agree with Monty and everyone else. Do what you can and be with him whenever possible but don't beat yourself up for not being able to be with him all the time. You have other family that need you around too. And do talk to him as much as possible, i had some good chats with my dad ...

Yeah, they attempted to stop some of the more draconian policies - along with other opposition, but most of those are now being put to parliament once again, except with a Tory majority.

The thing that shock me most in my own track photos in terms of body position is how effortless I look on the bike but while I'm on it it's far from effortless!! Someone could be forgiven for thinking I wasn't trying hard enough haha I do think people get caught up on body position too much though, ...

Questioning my existence. This 9-5 crap is rubbish. I hate being on the working hamster wheel. If my kids end up doing a desk job I've failed as a father. Mate, I have never had a 9-5 job but I certainly don't feel like I'm winning at life by any stretch. ...

FOOT path. What part of that do so many **** not understand?

... you should be able to put what you know to good practice in a RWD car.. FWD requires a different style and same with AWD. The main thing for me is being in the right gear and carrying the corner speed (I drive a 1.4 Fiesta). If the back end starts skipping a little then I know I'm there or there ...
