and those yam 125's are cool as fek and abot 3.5K so he must work hard somewhere .

hope he got home ok.
I never got to speak to him, but there's no reason why he wouldn't be a nice lad, don't get me wrong. After all I'm a 17 year old lad and I don't think I'm a pr!ck
My comment to Chris Numbers about 17 year olds was tongue in cheek
Yeah I love the YZF-125, IMHO they're definitely the nicest 125 around

Yeah mate I know that, just didn't want the others to think I was being a d1ckhead towards the lad of the 125

You're just upset because all your efforts to get me failed
You'll have to try harder next time

You'll have a great time then.... stone sober
Student = no money, so
By the way, how would I get pi55ed from water/coke, because obviously I would never break the law by drinking alcohol at 17 years old, would I?

we all remember that huh ?

in general his riding and positioning were good and he will make the transition well to a bigger bike imo-

hope he got home ok.
Yeah he was a decent guy, had a chat to him for a bit when we stopped at the petrol station...

Random day for him though, seeing a BIG group of bikes and thinking "**** it, i'll go out for a ride" =P

I did point him to the .org, so maybe he'll show up soon ^^

I chatted to him in the car park at Swanage, seemed very nice. Kudos to him for sticking around!

First off Matt, good write up, I wanted to chat to you and your good lady but did not get around to it along with not speaking to a few otheres i wanted to. I suppose that is what comes with thee being over 100 there.

and the Lad on the 125 was definatly a good rider , the only thing i would say is he needs to learn that if he sits on people shoulders ( no problem with that on my part) to do it on the right had side, more than once i needed to come to the left of the road to go around a righthander and he was on my pipe on the left of me so i could not move over as much as i wanted.

Fair play to him he was able to kep up for most of it though. I imagine he is now telling stries of how he kept up with loads of SV's and other sports bikes LOL .
