Went to a last minute car meet today at Middleton hall in Tamworth,a real mix of cars my favourite being an F40
My daughter met and had a photo took with the Stig so she was well happy I think she's turning into a petrol head already

Don't forgot the extra warm up session for Motogp at 1pm today due to Michelin pulling both rear tyres after Scott Redding tyres delaminated in fp4 yesterday.

Check out pictures of his injuries on Twitter. Huge bruise on his back is not from any crash but being hit by exploding tyre

I'm being proper techno today as watching live FP3 on my smart phone too

No worries Itchy but don't won't about being ride out fit as youve been on the bike 13 minutes more than me.

Hope to catch up soon.

... up ribs, bruised back, bruised arm and shoulder and I heard last night from the partner of the girl that she is on a lot of medication and she is being ill and has lost her appetite at the moment. Needless to say the team got word yesterday that the RD under investigation was sacked.

Seems like the helmet is being shipped with Fedex UK. I had known I wouldn't have bothered. According to the tracking site they've tried 2 times (they've not). If the third attempt fails it goes back go the shop. I've had problems with ...

The two butt wipes that had possibly the worst BO I've ever smelt whilst picking some goodies in Lidl. I was whinging about Mini Gee's shower shy behaviour a day or so ago, he's a saint compared to those two. Made me retch being anywhere near them.
Why do people think it's ok to smell like that?

There was some flare up from android app developers against the ad suppliers over the last week. Apparently there where some ad's being served out that chewed up bandwidth and cpu time, therefore eating up data allowances and killing batteries. I wonder if the same has been causing issues ...

I'm sure you've all seen the spy shots of cars being driven around before release covered in white and black swirls and random shapes - I think they look great. I'm considering the idea of doing this to my bike once I have gotten track fairings.. ...

... some of the desire for a 600 for newly qualified riders will be lower insurance premiums. I imagine insurance on a 1000cc is expensive without being over 25/30 with some experience. Even now in my 40's I'm asked for what experience I have on a litre bike when shopping for insurance

... track a like, but think people will miss the 600 range because you can have so much fun on them But nobody is buying them which is why they are being discontinued. There is no other reason. I bet when they are gone that's when people will suddenly want them again [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH ...

... into a persistent stomach and backache, tbh I'd rather just have the cold. I looked at the top 3 things that make a cold worse - exhaustion, being cold and thirsty, I hit all of them on Thursday last week. I hate being ill. I just want to sleep all the time

Personally I think litre engines are more rounded and all round useful than 600 engines.

I do love being able to properly rag my 748 on the road (something you struggle to do on a litre bike now) but it is very single minded and only good for that one thing.
