I guess you gave him a wide berth after that Blade,

... Vinales will take his seat. He is extremely hot property at the moment and a rare talent. There is no way Yamaha will allow anyone else to have him as I agree with Jack In that Rossi is no longer a guaranteed front runner although only a fool would write him off.

If Yamaha lose Lorenzo thats a huge blow , Rossi is no longer a regular race winner and they will need a replacement for him in 2 years time , I think Rins or maybe even Lowes will come up from moto2 to take the spot . Unless they can get Vinales of course but I think Suzuki will fight ...

Vinales is rumoured to be in demand by Yamaha and Honda but I'm sure Suzuki would want to keep him. Nice position to be in.

Need proof of Ducati competitiveness?

If Iannone hadn't take out his team mate then Dovi would be 2nd in the championship 1 point behind Marquez. I like Dovi and rate him as a talented rider but he is not an Alien. Imagine that Desmosedici with an Alien on board

... development knowledge from Audi. Personally I think money will have little to do it with. Jorge is already a multi millionare and a young lad like him with such talent will be interested in titles not cash. Personal opinion I think Jorge is watching the Ducati under Stoners stewardship and if it ...

... field of people who are racing for a championship I totally agree with all of that....I think the "What if??" intrigue around bringing him back should remain just that....BUUUUT...end of the day it's a business, and if it sells then sobeit...I'll watch it either way.

Hmmm.....I dunno about that.....Ducati will offer him X amount of money...Yamaha will beat that offer, and then it may just go back & forth in his wallets favour, but not as a good move as far as his racing is concerned...bottom line I think will ...

... it's needed and not over tension other than that they are good bit of kit. All joking aside go back to chap who told you how they work and tell him a push bike derailleur doesn't tension a chain it de-rails it to change gears. The clues in the name ;) The OEM has no allowance for temperature. ...

... won't charge the earth, we shall see. as clearly i want it for this weekend. Selfishly Monty is going to France now, otherwise I'd usually bribe him into a mini-adventure trip 8) They can't fit the bike in to do the sprockets until next week, so that mod I'll do when it arrives. On that note ...

Bike booked in with Mike for this Thursday after work to get the rear shock link swapped over.

I'll ask him to look at the CCT as well as I think that's starting to rattle.

... me though (lol) Seeing as it's a new tax year tomorrow I think he is allowed to make another... (wasntme) Err, Cav, for goodness sakes dont tempt him please 8)

Very sad news. RIP to a great guy

It was definitely a crap move of him. Direction of travel is Important not just to customers but to us as workers. IF you go around the wrong way YOU MUST have express permission to do it while all team members are aware of what you are doing ...

Hehe....ANYWAAAY...there was defo a guy who tried it,....I remember him getting flagged for it because of vision & safety concerns...and after trying it I can see why...or rather, I couldn't see, and that was the point...no wonder that fecker in the movie ...

... relaxation as the rest of the weekend is going to be insane.. Tomorrow morning, taking the boy out for his first ever run. Decided to do take him to parkrun, which is a 5k event. Hoping it's not too much for him (worried) not sure what the afternoon will bring. Sunday is race day. Reading ...

... It's his first trackday so he's booked us into novice. I'm not paying so can't complain :) Fingers crossed for (sun) (sun) (sun) Plan is to show him the way round in the morning, make sure he's comfortable and then see if I can lap him in the afternoon :D If anyone feels like joining in...
