    Nice one Glen!!
    That was the first time I've seen you racing your "big bike" in the flesh.... very kewl (even though at times I couldn't watch, it was too scary!), and if your leathers smell anything like what Nigel's smell like when he takes them off.... you can keep them!!

    Cheers mate! Some would say a throttle is like a switch, It's either on or off!

    Thanks mate. I was amazed how close Jamie and myself were to the Honda Superbike boys. I think we were really giving each other a 'tow'. Oh and I love your new paint scheme it's so easy to spot you out there (I only got to watch the LG race though!)

    Haha I bet you saw me run it wide a few times there then eh. I was getting tired at the end of the races. I was suprised Jamie didn't over take me.

    I will certainly catch you at the next round. I can't wait.

    Thanks Nigel! I hope you also had a good day. And thanks for those outstanding photos mate. Very impressive. I love how much color you capture.
    I can't wait to improve my skills at the next bucket meet. Maybe I should ask Fishy for some hints eh?

    Hey Phil. Thanks for the encouragement mate. I was gutted to come back into the pits after the red flag and see you lying on the track. Bought back memories to when I highsided the 250 out the and broke my arm and foot. I hope it all heals quick and without complication. Catch you at the track mate!

    Cheers,

    -Glen
