    News from Italy - Avalon on holiday?

    Hi all, I thought I would let you know what we have been up to.
    We are heading over to Adria on Monday morning. Hopefully visit Mugello and Misano circuits on the way over to have a look.
    We have been relaxing a lot, going to the beach, visiting Pisa, and Av went to a breakdancing party with her cousin in Pisa!
    Watched MotoGP and WSBK and F1 live on free to air TV today, and the hours of analysis shows!!
    Good show Casey!
    We are heading to Venice after the selection then back to Avs uncles house near Pisa.

    Ciao tutti.

    Steve

    Update from Italy

    Slight lack of cyber cafes near the track, so here's the short and sweet txt updates. I'll keep passing on the updates as they come.

    First day at the track. Met plenty of riders and parents. Alex Barros is here with his son. Avalons day tomorrow. Bikes look cool and Avalon fits fine. Ciao!

    Another update:

    All done for the day. Sadly Avalon slipped off in her very first corner which ruined confidence. Improved from 2:00min to 1:44 to 1:40. Other girl doing 1:34. Best lap of day around 1:30. Find out decision later.

    Avalon not selected. Feeling deflated

    Do not beat your self up Avalon, put it down to experience, and move on staying focused, am sure you did your best on the day
