Hey all, I have just got back from my weekend in Belgium watching the GP of Walinore in a small quiet town on the borders of belgium to france. It was muddy as anything for the whole weekend and I was walking around in jandals with a kiwi flag which i used as a walking stick to keep me upright. the great news was that Josh Coppins kicked butt in the wet conditions and got two seconds in both motos to finish second overall to Micheal Pichon.The pits were great with big rigs and all the bikes on display as well as company stands. The only crappy things were the camping facilites, they were extremley boggy and we had to push our car in and get a tow out today, there were no hot showers only cold,no food or anything on the campsite so they will be getting a letter from me when I get back to complaining.
Thats all the news I have really, oh but I did got to the caves of Neptunes on the way home which was cool.

I'm off now so this is Wellyman siging off from europe,
Laters!

The mud was serious Belgium mud and is sticky and hard to peel off shoes etc.Today I cycled down to a market on a very old cycle which is very common around here, new cycles ain't very common around here, and if they are new they still have an older look to them so its kind of funny.

Best wishes from Holland,
