    Caveat Emptor Magna.

    Should be in the law methinks.

    Also explains a lot about Mitsi exhausts.

    After racing motorcycles for eleven years Juanfran Guevara is retiring to devote time to his business career. At the ripe old age of 22.

    11yrs racing and only 22 yrs old !!!! That's why those little Mexicans are so fast.
    Had a career and still only a baby.

    A bit of silliness but not inappropriate for the season.

    Rossi has won round 1 of the legal action against his "ranch".

    Nothing to do with GPs, but we're a bit short of action in that department right now so - Paris Dakar. This is a video of a Brit rider preparing his bike. What you might call a full service?

    Episode 1 is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByUwxaf0dvk

    Episode 2 is out I think, with several more to come.

    Cheers, my wet afternoon sorted. I've nearly finished watching Malle Moto, his 2017 solo attempt. Brutal. I doff my cap in his general direction.

    Yeah even tough resourceful guys get worn down. I read an account by a Canadian solo rider who got stuck in dunes. He was in a deep hole and couldn't ride or drag the bike out. He called his wife to tell her he was pulling out (he had a satellite phone) but she told him the stage had been cancelled and provided he could make the start in the morning he was still in. He got out by riding round and round the wall of the hole inching toward the top and eventually over.

    A peek into the future

    The Triumph 765 Moto2 bike.

    MCN Motorcycle News have an impressive sounding "flyby" video clip on their Twitter page but it hasn't made it to YouTube yet so I can't seem to find a link to post.

    A grid full of those things will be LOUD.

    Shame there doesn't seem to be any footage of Julian Simon wringing it's neck. Those journo's are taking it a bit easy as they're not familiar with the bike and they're definitely not allowed to break it.
    Zen wisdom: No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. - obviously had KB in mind when he came up with that gem

    I'm just hoping they continue to develop it! Moto2 was pretty good in the first couple of years, all new and exciting, but then it sort of plataeu'd off IMHO.. The racing was still pretty close most of the time but there wasn't much development beyond some fairing changes and by the end of last year, pretty much everyone was just riding a Kalex chassis bike instead of the 15+ "different" bikes that were in the first season
