    Japanese MotoGP Postponed

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/moto...es/8628316.stm

    The Japanese MotoGP at Motegi has been called off because of air travel problems caused by the cloud of volcanic ash in Europe.

    Someone said he fell off a MX bike?
    Obviously a conspiracy - did anyone see those Italian Vulcanologists leaving Iceland just before the eruption...

    No MotoGP this weekend? Hey, this volcano thing is serious!

    I guess I'll have to settle for the superbikes at Assen.

    Okay, enough is enough already. This volcano is becoming a PITA. It has disrupted weddings, funerals, deaths (apologies for anyone who is seriously affected by this one thing I do feel sad about), schools, exams, births, work, life in general but to affect Moto GP. That is just rude.
    Shame we didn't have someone warning it was going to do this, or I could've ensured my in-laws had left NZ last week. Heck, I was even overlooking the fact they're probably stuck over here for a bit longer.
    Wonder if Superbikes will go ahead. I did think they might have to postpone/cancel MotoGP.
    Sheesh, nature has a nerve, hasn't she. Thankfully she doesn't get PMS as often as most of us females do

    Exactly. I'd say SBK will go ahead as they are all in Europe and have trucks and cars etc to drive around in. Otherwise Ten Kate would win some lonely races...
    "...New Zealanders, for all their faults, have virtues that are precious: an unwillingness to be intimidated by the new, the formidable, or class systems; trust in situations where there would otherwise be none; compassion for the underdog; a sense of responsibility for people in difficulty; not undertaking to do something without seeing it through - "

    It'll be interesting to see if F1 can get the cars, equip and people back from China in time for Barcelona...

    Guess one good thing to come out of it is that we'll get to see three races in a row at the pointy end of the season!

    Bugger I have some good settings on playstation for Motegi and was feeling confident.
    Is it a worry that I'm always trying to nudge Stoner, to take him out ? Bit like sticking pins in a doll for me. lol

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    Stoner seems to be able to take himself out quite nicely of late without your help mate!
