Yes, very nice. There were no bumps! Bit narrow for a proper race track though. Looks fun, that fast stuff was great!

1st road circuit round of dutch sbk champs was at Hengeleo with Gareth Jones once again winning from Schouten and breaking the lap record, Wanganui and Paeroa must have taught him well.

Jeez, you are clearly not blinkered enough for a racer! :eek5:

You wouldn't get sidecars round there one wide, let alone doing any passing anyway...

Blinkered enough??? Dude, have you seen how much looking around I do??
Bob gives me shit that I look around too much!!
I know what the backmarkers are doing as much as the person infront of me and behind me..... er, would I go faster if I just looked ahead?

Trees are just f@cken hard objects.........
Then again, I loved Paeroa.....

I dunno. More than likely! :bleh:
I don't like looking backwards...and if I see someone ahead of me do it it just makes me push harder, its the first sign of giving up! :D

Trees are hard.... but there are plenty of other hard things to hit out there! They are just objects to avoid. Shouldn't be out in the grass with the trees anyways! It looks like most of the fast corners on that track had run off though...the trees were just around the harpins and straight bits so it could be worse.

I remember that comment - after his first time at Spa, first time on a 500, in the wet, and gets third (beating Lawson).
"What walls? Not planning on going out there"
"European riders are a bunch of pussies"
haha

Trees are hard....

And in Germany have more right to life than German roadracers. Have chainsaws been banned over there?

Not a problem anyway - like power poles at the isle of man - every 4th one has a hay bale in front. Hitting one with a bale would be kind of `lucky', I guess? :no:
