MotoGP 2014

[Reckless]

These days it costs a massive NZ$14.67 in paperback from the Book Depository. But I've already got the Baylis book coming and I just noticed that Peter Egan's "Leanings3" is out and I'll have to have that too. Later.

Thanks pritch they are now in the Iphone notes to read list? Time is the problem
$11:71 my Bankcard says as an e book trying this new Asus T100 10.1" tablet for reading?? Seems good. Great at night in bed.
As an Aside
Also bought "A flock of ships" - Brian Callison. $6:91
I've never forgotten it! It captivated me when I was a boy the reviews say it does again re read 40 years later.

I reckon they'll get the Honda smokin next year and we will see some great Battles with the Tech3 bikes etc. Hopefully the Suzuki will be in that mix to.
Prob going to need dual screens

Been seeing a couple of those sort of stories. One of them had Miller signed up to Repsol Honda, even though MM and DP are both signed up for another 2 years.

I read those stories as to mean, they will lock Him in so as to take a place long term in the Repsol team. DP will be gone at end of his current new contract and Honda are obviously looking to the future.

So far there is nothing to say MM won't win them all. I hope he does. If he doesn't it will be due to a mistake on his part, getting punted in the first few laps before he just fucks off or a mechanical dnf. He has made the others look like a bunch of plonkers. I like seeing history in the making.

I always thought that the tear off visors could cause riders problems but I didn't expect it like this. I thought more about running one over or flying straight into the air intake...

Is he a New Zealander? Just wondered with the way he spelt breaks.

Now is it me, or are these super slow motion replays getting a bit old? The first few times they are pretty bloody impressive, but after that they can be a bit if a yawn, and worse when there is something decent happening in the race like in the Moto 3 earlier. Cut to two bikes going around a corner in slow motion, cut back to see everything has changed at the front. It is as if they have this technology and so have to use it as least half a dozen times per race. Once or perhaps twice it is worth it, the rest is a bit arse.

...well, that I didn't expect...

Nooooooooooooooo

(glad I didn't chuck $20 down on the win).

Bummer no history being made this year (at least for consecutive wins). Will we have to wait another 44 years for someone else to break Ago's record?

I did, it was only a matter of time till Pedrosa got his shit together. I would say that even if Marquez's set up was 100%, he would have had the 3 old hats ready to put him over their knee and spank him. You could tell by the grins in the press conference they were in it together.

Not taking anything away from Marquez of course, fantastic rider with all the luck in the world. BRING ON SILVERSTONE!
