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

Shitty roads and traffic this morning.

There were a few broken down cars. I take it no one bothers to check their vehicles these days?

Re: Late start to programme costly - Ducati

But how do they know that it isn't already there? Maybe they just dont have a rider capable of race wins on a regular basis? If Stoner were to wildcard and win on it i can imagine other riders may well consider a move there. I think the Corse division has moved on in leaps and bounds since ...

Re: Guy Martin: Last Flight of the Vulcan Bomber

Great program. Mainly for the Vulcan, not too bothered about guy these days. What a machine. So very sad they can't fly again. I didn't realise there were others that could fly if allowed.

Re: What are you eating ??

Had a lovely piece of roast beef cooked rare with all the trimmings and for added pleasure my Sis and Neice were in attendance for lunch, there was sticky toffee pudding for dessert as well. (blush)
