nah mate my boy is only 2 1/2 but is motorbike mad. He will sit there for an hour reading dirt rider downunder. He evan knows if there is a new one that he hasn't got at the supermarket.

Bump. Quite a good minute and a half item on TVOne news just now.

Showed track halfway done (500 truckloads of dirt when finished) Michael Phillips showed a couple of his best scars, and according to pretty pit girl: "Nothing better than a dirty boy on a bike."

Yeah, hey crf119 ... howd it go ? any positive response from the org?
the only reason I really suggested it'd be good to race is that you might get a shot at poking the 30 second girl at the afterparty.

the track is mean, was down there last night installing start gates,

i suggest a lot of kiwi's are going to struggle on the track, it is a step up from anything i have ever seen here before,

Well we are heading down in about 30mins. Looking forward to it!

Right, so I promised Phil I'd get some pics.

This is probably my best shot.

I know they're holding the kwaka umbrella, but they really seemed more in favour of 'team orange'

What an awesome night of racing , both 450 and 250 classes ... love him or hate him , you have to admire the way Chad Reed can throw that bike around , seat bouncing some triples after the first corner ... and Tye Simmonds the 17 yr old , keeping Reed on his toes , superb ... Michael Phillips/ Danny Anderson / Justin MacDonald / Broxy and Jesse wiki on the 250's , close racing what a great night ...

Hog bar was mean to

Great racing, my pick was actually the kid Jake Moss, I thought that 1 vs 1 he had with Chad was awesome & the format of the nights racing was really good.

Bit to much fighting going on though for me to say I enjoyed Hamilton ( both at the event & though I had already crashed, early the next morning ).
