    Hey don't go wrecking the bloody thing before the 21st, or your body again for that matter.

    Maybe someone else can step up and offer a prize for fastest bucket.

    If you took Pammy up the Cliffhanger I'd give ya a choccie fish

    Maybe we could look to do a couple of fun runs on the buckets?...would need about a quarter hour between us and the real bikes though probably

    Hmm, if the person that is buying my bucket decided to take it to the sprints then that would have a VERY good chance at taking that prize!!

    If you'd come to see Scummy the other night I could have bought you a Creme Brulee dessert or something like that, but hey if you're entering the sprints ya don't want to put any weight on eh else you could end up like that limpone versus koba challenge that happened a while ago.

    Malcom better be re-distributing/re-offering the 400cc Cup again this time (Hels?). Not entirely sure if I'll be over this time... but already have potential Bucket Trophies on my mind. Obv ideas so far but I'm short of inspiration.

    Most of us bucketeers won't be able to make the first sprints, but as long as Pammy is still running (and as long as it's ok with the organisers) I challenge other bucketeers to a one chance standing start time challenge, so we get one run and whoever gets the fastest time wins the Bucket Standing. How does that sound? (I suggest one run cause the others probably don't want to stand around all day watching us stupid arses piddling about on our buckets, and it would probably take us half an hour to get down to the timing spot in the flying..)
    What say ye?

    I loove the idea.
    Maybe beg the organisers for cheaper entry category on the basis of only doing a short run.

    I'd be in - it'd have to be the full 1/4 or else manual timing....

    Yes - the standing 1/4. (It is a 1/4 isn't it?)

    The timing gear is setup to measure the 1/4. Bit hard to move it for a bunch of headcases.
