Will be heading over on Friday with my dad. We always try to go for a father son day. Plus we get to ride a motorbike that we don't own without having the pressure of buying!!

Enjoy the father and son day Rossgo. I'm sure your Dad will be well chuffed. I genuinely love boys days out with my lads and hope they continue when their adults.

Have fun and enjoy the rideout on new wheels.

Editing is great fun when you have the software and 2 screens - Sony Vegas Pro for me.

Has anyone seen any deals for Alpinestars GP Pro gloves? I'm hoping to land a pair for less than £120..

Be careful what you buy in terms of Alpinestars gloves online. There are quite a few fakes out there.

Not saying that link is but i nearly got stung on ebay by some a couple of years ago.

I looked at the Held Phantoms and Held Titans yesterday at the NEC. Best gloves i have seen to date.

Not the cheapest but then the best never is.

Quoting from other forums is confusing enough. Is there a cryptic message as well?
