Default Media test day-I was like kid in a sweet shop

I was at the media test day today with work where i was allowed to ride ANY bike that was there either on track or on a road test ride-i chose not to though as there were 2 ducati 1098's binned, a gsxr 750 and a fireblade-all in view of the most well know and also less know motorcycle journalists/magazines etc, plus it was flipping cold and windy, so just took lots of piccies instead-enjoy
