    Slightly off topic but consider it a bump and not at all suggesting the same thing would happen Billy

    It reminds me of a time years ago at a British GP round when an enterprising couple of guys purchased a large curtain sided semi trailer and kitted it out as secure undercover bike storage for spectators attending the meet, they even had storage bins fitted for helemets and gear. Charged a some and gave a ticket for display on you return for your bike and gear.

    Yep you guessed it......prob during the main event.......goneburger!!!

    Wont be doing SI rounds guys (how ever many there will be!) but a bloody good money saving idea for those that will.

    Fark, I just had some nightmarish visions of the fun after "lights out!".....hmmm, what will win out: the long arms and legs of GW or the agility and sheer persistence of Billy? The TAB could make some money off this......place your best gennelmen!
