My computer is puff'n a bit nowdays as its about 7 yrs old now.
I'm in need of an update. (more sheep or rams or something)
Fast broadband will help if in fact we ever get it.

I thought you could get Telstra cable broadband up your way too?

Worth the extra coin, if your currently plugged into an ancient cabinet with no where near enough capacity for the houses it serves.

Officer Mikey is a Telecom tech now, he told me all the above stuff.

Telecom launching VDSL2 soon, works over existing copper if your exchange is capable. Waaaaaay better speeds. streamed motoGP in high def the other night

Nah bud I'm up a private road/lane and can't get the cable. I guess if the other eights houses wanted it they'd do it ? But it's next step' heaven' for them.

Only if you all paid for it.

You are welcome to dig a trench and lay some coax yourself though. How strong's your back these days?

Yes, it would be great to see Pete back with the big boys.

Why the FUCK are Suzuki waiting till 2015 to come back.

Redding would surely take that over a Ducati, or leased bike.

and I think Randy is a good rider but if they want the bike to get to the finish without crashing they may need someone else to race it.

I'll become a Yamaha fan, if they get that poof to race the thing!

Had a chat with me boss at work about this today, we came to the conclusion that seeing how Suzuki are only testing, maybe they do not have to follow the competition rules?. Namely the fuel allowed per race. We thought that perhaps they have built a bike which handles well, but maybe there are underlying issues with getting the bike to make enough power to be competitive with the allowable fuel limits etc. Also, what tires etc have they been allowed to test on?

It is certainly very good PR to have the Suzuki engine matching similar speeds etc to the front runner boys, but how much gas did they have to pour into it to get it there...

cos dorna changed the rules again.In the first year suzuki will have to cover ALL their own costs with no subsidy from dorna,and as well as that they will have to buy all their tyres from bridgestone....This is how dorna got around the fact that the existing teams didnt "sell" their spots to the newcomers at a reasonable price.So dorna created 4 more spots but they are unassisted.I think from now on the unfunded spots go to the lowest finishing teams from the previous years championship.I cant remember where i saw this,but obviously it is a bit different to the existing set up that Suzuki were maybe expecting

A few months in advance, and I know it's been asked before, but has anyone been to the Indy GP?

Might have the chance to head there this year and want to know if it's worth heading to.

Even if you say it's crap I'll probably still go but it would be nice to have a few heads up!

Not one I'd make the effort to attend McWild, I don't know if it's that popular with the riders either ?
But it's be interesting to hear what you think of it. My brother n law goes to those car meets like Indy and Nascar, said the crowds are incredible like 200 thousand just in the stands.
Don't think bikes should bother with it myself.

How long will the three yanks last in GPs ? Hayden,Spies and Edwards aren't likely to raise their game any further ?

I see that Thailand is seeking a MotoGP in 2015.
It will undoubtedly replace either a Spainish round or (more likely) an American one (probably Indy).
