That's not the attitude young lady, you'll soon get a reputation for being a weekend warrior. :D :D :D

Nah fair play, thats a lot of riding in one month. 8) Puts me to shame.

Have a good weekend.

So who was there... I know I saw Fraser there... but who else.

I went on Saturday.

Weather was brilliant.

Show was ****.

Loads and loads of empty pitches.

No Honda.

No Harley Devidson.

Only stunts were from Jason Finn who I have seen loads of times before - no where near as good as Jean Pierre Goy (Bond film stunt rider) who was there last year.

I won't be wasting my money next year :evil: :evil: :evil:

Only good thing to come out of it is that I am probably going to testride a 749 :wink:

I was there for the weekend with the Bandit & SV Owners Club. I have to echo what Matt says - the organisers, apart from from slashing the budget for the event by 50% (hence no JP Goy or other of his ilk) have had some MAJOR rows with with Honda & HD apparently, so they told 'em to stick it !!

Attendance was well down on the last 2 yrs, so I guess the event is either gonna to dramatically improve or it'll fold :-(

Still, personally I had a good time - got to meet Matt & Banjo as well as my friends from the B & SVOC who I only see a couple of times a year. Had a giggle on the 'track' (at least on Sunday - Sat they pulled us off early 'cos they thought one of us was dropping oil - didn't occur to the muppets that it had been dropped by the Rudge's who were out immediately before us :roll: )

Banjo 26-06-06 10:34 AM

Much quieter than last year although my head on Sunday morning said otherwise :lol:

Tried to have a bit of fun on the track but when your trying to steer clear of an inch wide oil line and half a ton of cement dust on your braking line and all round a corner you tend to slow down a bit, especially when confronted by orange overalls sweeping up!!!

Still, good to see everyone again, lets see what next year brings.
