    Not to worry Merv. There's plenty of us here with VCR's that are going almost unused in this time of the ubiquitous DVD player... I'm sure someone can record it and pass it around.

    It will be nice to get some use out of my VCR for a change.

    Shit Prime is good - they are even managing to cover a non-existent class - 500cc, they must have some super-duper contract that let's them do that!

    Yeah I'll record MotoGP myself off Prime, I'm buggered if I'm going to be up to suit Northern Hemisphere timezone. Interesting one will be if they do PI live which will suit us that don't fly over there.
    Cheers

    Did you not know that was why Rossi changed camps? He LOVES a challenge and a decent race, and being on the top bike didn't give him enough fun. It's been very good for Yamaha too, as he's done a fantastic job of helping them sort their bike out.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    I've also just received a reply from Andrea Bell at Prime.

    Got one from Andrea yesterday. Just got the following from Peter Payne from Yamaha:

    "Simon,
    Thank you for your thoughts.
    We at Yamaha, like you were frustrated to hear the GP results on Monday morning, but not able to actually see the race. When it was suggested that Prime TV were seeking the Telecast rights we wanted to be associated immediately. We will onforward your memo to our Advertising Agency for Prime TV's information. The FZR750 is a good model that has many of the innovations which are featured on current Yamaha SuperSports bikes. Keep enjoying it.

    Kind Regards,
    Peter Payne
    Yamaha Motor New Zealand"
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.
