I've loved every minute on it though, it's terrific fun - the triple howl is so-o-o-o-o addictive - especially at 12K rpm

Yourt not alone there hun, i think me and my 675 dont suit each other-hence why ive hardly used her since buying her, gonna give it until summer next year

This year two huge events stick in my mind, one happy, one sad. Buying the Duke was a huge thing for me. I've never spent that much money on one thing EVER! I still can't believe it sometimes

That led on to the one very sad thing though.............the decision that we couldn't afford to keep my beloved SV too. There were so many memories wrapped up in that bike. My one consolation is that bits of him live on with other orgers.


Next year................who knows. Lots of miles and lots of smiles I hope, even more than this year.

There better not be a 3rd time or his man-bits are history!

Realising my dream to become a astronaut.

Being the first man to land on Mars... it was a great year and a great adventure.

(seeing a shrink about my lying)

What stands out this year for you, what you have done, achived ect?

Moving in with drew at the start of the year. Passing my bike test. Mine and my sister's huge fight which helped us clear the air and get us closer than ever. Little Eden being born (niece)

And what are you looking forward to next year or looking to achive?

Buying a place with drew. Getting married. Getting a new bike and if not, riding drew's.

THIS YEAR: Coming through a big motorcycle accident & living & still wanting to ride. Doing a couple of track days & feeling good.

NEXT YEAR: I certainly want it to be better than this year on all fronts. Hope to get my finances back on track after losing so much money through the accident. Want to go racing in the Formula 400s, but dont think I will have the cash to do it. Get out & do some more road riding in the nice weather we are going to have in 2009...... I can dream though

This year:
Qualifying as an accountant at last, and then being promoted at work.

Next year:
Getting my life back after studying and having more time to sail and bike, so booking a track day and off roading.
I want to get my knee down for the first time.
Evie M getting her first bike.
And being 40.

Highlight......getting the rr
Lowlight......not been able to keep the sv as well.

I've done sod all this year apart from about 10 trackdays. I'm hoping to do the same again in 2009, starting with a 3 days of tracktime at Portimao in Portugal in late March
