    Ross family won't be doing the NI rounds

    John Ross broke his wrist at the Bears meeting so is out of action for the NI rounds of the Nationals and Amy had already decided not to do the NI rounds on her RG150 as she'd had too much time off work recently anyway.
    Bugger as John was a bit of a freakshow out there at the sharp end of both Superbikes and 600's.
    More of a bugger for the team as I think they'd left bikes up in the North after doing a pacific race series meet a few weeks ago at Taupo in preparation for the Nats there.

    Yeah sorry about that but what happened to the days where superbike guys also ran 600s... is it a budget thing due to the global economics or is there more to it?
    Growin' up as a kid, always thinkin', you know If I could ever just race motorcycles and make a living that would be the coolest thing know to mankind.

    Superbike guys got to soft, especially that Shirriffs guy
