I don't know. I was genuinely asking as he posts a lot of stuff, but a lot of it when the news is formally announced.

I know he isn't a rider based on the photos he's posted.
I met lincsbloky at a TD earlier this year and he was interviewing racers and being a crew chief etc etc.

If you had met me you'd know I'm never serious about anything

Nope. It was hard enough work getting Brent to agree to a new serpentine belt when we changed the teams transit engine rofl

No Gavia, I don't ride at all lol.

Hey BN, last time I saw you it was at cadders, you were in that trick van, I was with jonners (who spent the day ranting about his 2016 zx10) and james, who was busy going silly fast on my bike. And crashing it 😂😂😂😂😂

Anyone going to motorcycle live today? Might see this guy

Brookes surely deserves a place in a good team. I love how he is but sometimes that doesn't do you any favours. Surely he will get a ride somewhere.

Glad Hickman will have a shot.

What about Coops, I've not heard anything about him ? Sort of slips in the back door and gets a job done but without anyone noticing.

For us it's a sport but the reality is it's a business.

If brookes want's z but the remaining teams can only afford s and higgs/palmer won't chuck any money in to help get brookes in the championship what options remain ?

You'd think for a team running yamaha's he#d be a very valuable asset with all the development him/smr did.

Yes kind of but if you want to keep yourself in the shop window you take the pay cut because if he misses a season he'll be forgotten soon enough, he is also chasing a Roads deal for the NW200 TT & Ulster GP again money will be the sticking point.

The Cookstown 100 is looking like it's going to be oversubscribed this year (new bikes to develop) so those looking to enter I'd say get your entries in asap. smile
