    I came, I wasn't sore, I got conquered

    Hmm, a round on the good old reliable old plain old honda seemed like a good idea...
    Finished my dirty old trailer build the day before (gawd, who would have thought building a trailer could take so much time!!)

    Got to the race day with bro dave in tow, and proceeded to forget anything I ever learned about the fine art of motorsickle racing.

    However, big ups to flame, for beating me

    Big big big thanks to Toast for the back protector, cheers bro, you are my hero of the day!

    And to my understanding bank manager, who doesn't like rubber cheques...

    Shot to Dave for a real nice throw into the wall with no accompanying incontinence!

    And of course to Paul, who owns my race effort (or lack thereof in this case)

    Now to work on the mental approach to racing, just because I have gone fast around there on said honda, is no guarantee I can do it every time.

    Never mind, winter is still got a long way to go yet!!

    Hey Jono, no probs on the back protector.
    Pretty gay day for racing, really. I'm quite sure I'd not have ridden my best with the weather patchy like it apparently was.
    Catch ya at some of the VicClub rounds hopefully. Later

    Good to catch up and watch you race. Puke is an interesting track if you haven't been there for a while. But despite all that you still made that Honda fly around there faster than I could.

    What kind of a half arsed race report do you call that Jonno?! I wasn't there and still don't have a clue what happened...

    Still no idea what happened... all I can envisage is that Jonno fell asleep towards the end of a rather bad strip tease routine...
