Are you needin to store bikes/cars anywhere or are you sorted? Some of the city hotels don't have car parks tis all smile

Also, I was talking to a friend/enemy of yours from the Yamaha past masters, Richard Sawyer. He is/was a customer of ours until he chopped his RR in and bought his race bike. Apparently he's doing ok in the season so far smile

Simon, Aky is at Snetterton today on his new Ducati. He's all by himself.
Oooh.... There were two Panigales there today - one in track spec, other in normal spec (and red). I'm sure one of em had long hair. Which one was Aky?
Track spec and long hair.

We aren't sure how we are coming up yet. Will be in the car if its miserable. The hotel does have parking and Mitzy has said she'll camp out with the bikes for security


Aaahhh....DicktheBarber.... I haven't actually met him yet. His appearance happened the same time as I lost the love, and I haven't been to any of the meetings since. I understand he is doing pretty good at the moment. I still follow the results and are in touch with a number of the YPMers, but by staying away I'm hoping to recapture the desire to go back for the right reasons

He said he was selling the S1000RR as it didn't feel as good as the Duke on track, he passed the noise test at Cadwell on Tuesday by asking them to do the test at the left of the bike away from the clutch.

Not spoke to him today due to me being on the drink for most of today. I'm away to Croft with him tomorrow so I'll get the crack then.

Sounds good to me, if you're going to get I back into you've got to do it for the right reasons I guess smile. Yup his salon is two mins down the road from work. Lovely guy, an absolute gent. Helped me with my confidence on track and given me loads of advice which has certainly helped.

Snetterton is only 30 miles from me, from Cambridge way, so depending on work load I may come and watch and may head to Norwich (I sniffed my sisters* kickers once so I'll fit in.) and a few beers!











*Step-sister and we were both 13 and 14 respectively.

The Nelson, near the river? I'll get mine booked this weekend.

As for the drawing, I'm a bit out of love with it at the moment. I go through phases, so I'll get my mojo back soon and I'm sure somehting can be doodled to mark the event of Stu's first season/our supporters club smile

Just tried to book a room and it's saying none available for that night!

I'll give it another go later as the website was acting up earlier when I tried. You haven't booked the feckin' lot have you, to guarentee exclusivity? I know what you City types are like...

There's another one just up the road that has availablity though, so will book in there if I can't get it done later smile

ETA; says there's a minimum two night stay now. Was it the same when you booked, Tony?

Simon - it took me 4 attempts for the transaction to clear, in which time it went up £10. Their site is shyte and that happens every time a book with them.

I've booked 2 nights anyway.......we like Norwich. We're heading straight from work so we'll be on the piss early (ish)
