    Cheers for that pritch, we've been hanging out for sooooo long huh ? Top class bike racing at last.
    I will reserve the remote both days.
    Lets hope these new crazy rules re second race grid positions, don't spoil the show.

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

    Yeah I haven't got the fine detail of the rules off by heart yet, but it should be easier to pick up watching. At least I know why they've done it how they have so that helps.

    Actually it's pension day tomorrow and the forecast is fine, I feel a lunch out of town coming on.

    Current champ Sofog gunna miss the first two rounds with a practice/training injury.
    That'll cheer up Cluzel and the Yank boy who was fastest yesterday.

    Rea back on top yesterday in testing.

    I stumbled across the WorldSBK Preview last night on Sky. All the riders they talked to were very positive about the new rules. But they didn't talk to Tom Sykes about it. (Well, they probably did and decided not to show it.)

    He should be fine with his early race pace, later on however...

    Great to see Marco back competing, any bets on him out performing Chaz this year?

    Wait, what? - only out performing Chaz, I'm very close to publically stating that he will out perform not only Chaz, but KRT as well. Where is crasher anyway?

    Prick is scared that we will be right this time

    As bigger Melandri fan that I am, Rea is a freak on 2 wheels and most likely heading for another championship title. So I'll settle to say that he's going to be quicker than his team mate (who is also a great rider).

    Tomorrow. At last. I trust y'all have laid in a supply of snacks and beverages ready?

    Who will be the champ? Rea, Sykes, and Davies look likely to be the front runners again but this morning I saw a reminder, "Don't overlook Eugene Laverty". He was offered a raw deal in GPs and decided that he'd rather be competitive than ride around at the back of the field. He will have a point to prove and he ain't slow.

    Weather looks very Philip Islandish http://www.bom.gov.au/vic/forecasts/phillipisland.shtml

    How long have we been waiting for a season with more than two potential contenders?

    Go Marko and Eugene...
    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight underpants.

    Apparently Laverty went well at the previous test but struck problems at PI.

    I note that the WSBK live timing app is currently available free for iOS and Android. Live timing, live lapping, interviews and live laps etc.
