Re: Stoner: Marquez felt threatened by me

Bring back Hunt being stoned and womanising after a race, Senna getting out of his car to tw@ someone, Mansell arguing at interviews. Yes they are racers but we want ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Played "dodge the lane switcher". 3 times today on the motorway. People move across then wonder why there's a motorbike 2 foot from their rear with its headlights on full beam and the horn being sounded.

Re: Lorenzo Switches to Shark Helmets

He wasn't happy with HJC and I guess AGV weren't going to have him and I don't ever remember him being a shoei or arai rider.

Probably as simple as Shark were throwing buckets of cash at the deal and wanted a top rider in their brand of helmet.

Re: One for the Honda fan boys

Hahaha!! Yes I do want test rides but feel so bad for not actually being able to buy one! S1KRR would be the best in my opinion would love to be able to pick one of those up

Re: What are you doing today ??

Took the Blood Blade out for a spin... she's not quite finished yet (waiting for the pannier rack to be fitted then the panniers are being vinyl'd to match) but it was such a perfect day in the 1hr sunshine window I had to stop for a pic or two :)

Re: Train fare rises

... the costs of a ticket.... The cost for a ticket to Ipswich last year was nuts, and the journey was horrible, I can only describe the journey as being on a flight, with the worse turbulence you have ever ever encountered. Never again.... I used to love train trips, now they just depress me.

Dubai Hotel Fire

Shocking scenes on social media.

Looks like some shortcuts were taken when it was being built. there's no way a new hotel should go up like that,

Re: Another rocket ship

... looks ace mate. lots of things went through my head riding the bike home and getting my other truck was the top choice but having no helmet and being 90 miles from home thought better of that option. Thanks looking forward to seeing what it can do. When there's a break in the rain ill get it ...

Yes thanks mate.
He speaks Spanish as his primary language, but as he has a British father he speaks perfect English too & when over here speaks English. Interestingly when he was scared I noticed he automatically defaulted to speaking in Spanish.

Re: No particular place to go

The coverage should be ok. My brothers team have been able to train everyday so it's not as bad as what's reported. It's always the negatives that get most coverage online/in the news so I'm being optimistic.
