I was going to ride up with Stephen, but as you already know, his NSR is off the road, and he won't take the RC45 - don't blame him either!
Bit of a boring trip on my own, plus as I'm running one of his MC18 barrels at the moment, I'm not sure I'd do the trip anyway!! Maybe we have second thoughts over a few beers tonight and drive up, as he's staying over at my place anyway.
PM me your mobile number and we'll SMS you with any plans. _________________ Andy.

Jeff you were right about Thruxton not being a place you want to be on a windy day. I went on Saturday for qualifying,was really good as for a tenner you see all the bikes without people's heads in the way and wander around the paddock.
It was damn chilly though, i was freezing as only wearing a light jacket so spent most of the time chattering and ended up having to wear a coat the dog lies on in the back of the car, not nice!!!!
Got to see John Reynolds really close up,bless him he's struggling with his foot don't know how he's riding at all,managed to get a few good piccies of him as he went off to his motorhome.
The bikes all looked good although totally don't like the Airwaves sponsership on the dukes,looks naff. Am gutted the BBC aren't showing BSB this year guess ar'll have to stick to moto gp's and wsb's
Sorry we didnt go Jeff, I just cant leave the RC there, you cant lock the steering and once i was there i had my rear wheel stolen, yes i came back and some f...wit had stolen the wheel and left the bike on a brick! I was not a happy camper. _________________ If I have to take the carbs off once more...
lol thats what i thought, still only cost £900 for a new wheel and the price of a tyre, why wouldnt i want to leave my bike there again? lol Andy knows how much i hate leaving the thing outside his house. Still good racing! _________________ If I have to take the carbs off once more...

Sigh...
Last year I had one of my garages done on the one night I had put what was usually in the boot of the car in there so I could bin the Christmas tree nthe following day. The tossers had a pretty much brand new Arai Quantum F, a similarly new pair of FT gloves, a new set of tyres and some engines and engine parts. A few grands worth at least.
Until I found out who stole it I was scoping out anyone who suddenly had what I lost - getting paranoid maybe until I zeroed a dude on a black FZR600 with my old lid and gloves, the boots were the same size and make too - sorta watched and followed him home one day to find out it's someone I know as a semi - friend.
Tight - I hate people that do over bikes and stuff like that.

well i went to thruxton in the end. took the car nothing to theive off of that saw some good racing and not too cold, but boy was it packed. still had a good day.
I went to Thruxton last year and it was amazingly packed then. Haven't managed to catch up with the race results yet will look on the internet. Jeff did you manage to have any of those delicious Cow burgers that are always on offer? A day's watching racing should always involve eating Meat of reheated,sat there for 4 hours variety
Stephen can't believe you had your wheel nicked that is bang out of order some people are such d****.
Glad you enjoyed the 'Dog' Jeff Must admit i love fast food but obviously don't want too much as i will have to squeeze a paunch into the old leathers, not a pretty picture
Didn't see 'supersize me',maybe i should and that will stop the maccy dee's intake!!!!
Yep portaloo's aren't great places to be when your a Lady (in a loose sense of the word) Always found the loo's at thruxton of a reasonable quality though ,just thought i would share that with you all
