    I'm just working my through the 2004 WSB season on DVD (thanks Manxkiwi) rather than suffer Morning Show shite coming off nightshift of a morning: Haga, Toseland, Laconi, Vermeulen, Chili etc going at it hammer and tongs.

    Glad you're enjoying your purchase. Wait 'till you get into all the TT stuff. Kinda makes you wish it was raining eh?
    Do us all a favour, by bringing yourself up to speed, before pulling onto the motorway.

    Haven't seen the second race yet, maybe this arvo. Great fighting in SuperSport.
    The two MVs did the best I've seen in that race too.
    Can't say much more as a lot of people probably haven't seen it yet.

    What are your thoughts on Sofuoğlu’s move?

    He's a hard man, but I thought he was there in a flash and Lowe turned in. It's not as if he just poked a front wheel in.
    Good that Lowe finished where he did. I don't follow one over the other but one off from Lowe and it's on.

    1199 Panagale

    I really want to see how the Ducati's go. All the early indications were that the 1199 is much faster than the 1198 was, but the first official test days they were more than 1 second behind Melandri. Still lots of development to go on them though.
    Unfortunately the 1199 engine has beeen tuned almost to the limit, it needs a totaly new concept on which they can build for years to come. Im a member of the dutch Ducati club (5000 members) and many of the bikes are being raced on the club circuit and many have overheating problems. There will undaubtedly be a faster folow up knowing Ducati and its new owner Audi. The Panagale is a marvel of engineering and is a fantastic bike to see and ride hopefully it will do well in the WSB but uptil now its medioka but they are trying there best. Unfortunately the competition as better and we have to accept this for the time being. Im a Ditch fan of Ducati and have been riding Ducati since 1980, i'm now working on getting a visa to return to New Zealand what for me is home even though i wasnt born there but grew up in Auckland I will join the DOCNZ when I arrive and ride the NZ roads on my Ducati with more fans.

    GO THE MIGHTY GIXXERS!!! So stoked to see them up at the pointy end.

    I was so excited for Camier, Baz, and Clusel, that I didn't know who to root for.

    Great racing!

    Was fantastic wasn't it. I spotted a friend in the Kwaka pit and got a cheeky reply E mail ! He's French so had a good day.
    A frog won in Superstock too.

    Yeah - it was just a racing incident. Just trying occupy the same piece of track and Lowes was un-sighted. No way Superglue was going to back off with a few corners to go.

    This is the incident in question (if you haven't already seen it).

    Almost looks like Lowes front washes out, and he falls onto Sufoglu's bike. So the glue man has to stand it up a bit to stop himself crashing too.

    Not a great camera man though, so there's a critical half second missing.
