Hmm, musical chairs ! we will see if his decision is any good as Honda seemed to have stopped still with the Fireblade as well as the MotoGP bike ?
I was at the Almeria test circuit this morning and there was a lot of people waiting around to test various bikes (mostly privateers) unfortunately there wasn't one wheel turned on the circuit do to serious wind, it was so bad that it was very difficult to actually stand upright, and seeing that it's in a desert there was also a lot of sand included in it
Although there is supposedly an economic downturn the amount of serious race bikes that I saw would run into millions

I fancy it's a wee bit warmer with you Gordon watching some bike testing, I'm considering attending the rally stage meeting at Goodwood tomorrow but with a top temperature of 2F at 10am I'm seriously reconsidering!

It's been a constant 20c inside our place day and night , and is high 20s outside at this moment (out of the wind)

The rumour mill has it that Honda have a brand new bike and V4 but everyone is keeping very hush hush about it, I'm assuming something similar happening in MotoGP.

A few snaps from Saturday of the BSB Test Day at a very breezy Donington.

No doubt about it, the BSB has to be the best 2 wheel racing on the planet. Full grids, packed spectator areas. The bikes still represent recognisable machinery as to opposed to the abominations that filll the motogp grids and the fantastically close racing on track is second to none, IMHO of course.

Race 3 was an absolute classic, especially the last 2 laps. 4 of them all on different makes of bike going at it hard but fair.

Sorry, not british. Bol d'Or this weekend, circuit Paul Rcicard. Nice weather. Great race.

[Gerard C]

Interesting race. We could have a Superstock ont the podium. Many gearbox issues for the top teams. Without chicane, the Paul Ricard is a good place to test the reliability.
