200 mph blow out!!
Nakano popped a tyre today at Mugello.........at 200mph!!! those dudes make F1 look like noddy and big ears playing in bumper cars in toy town.
Where else can you see 210mph head buried in the clox but still lifting the front end.....awesome

It makes Schumacher and F1 look like a bunch of girls doesn't it ? That was racing with a capital R and they look like they enjoy it as
well.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Proper motorsport.
Donnington's a bit dear this year though.

Rossi going to Yamaha was like Schumacher signing for Jordan or something, that's when you are in it for the sport not the money. It's
real entertainment with overtaking and not tactics dictating the result.

I was a bit worried when they showed the marshal removing his helmet!!! Thought he was trying to break his neck. I thought you wern't supposed
to move the head after such a high speed shunt??!!!!
If a bolt is stuck force it.
If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway!!!

It's a difficult decision - when I did 1st aid courses they always said leave the helmet on, unless the casualty was about to vomit (and maybe
choke) or was having obvious breathing problems that needed attention.

Hard as nails those Jap dudes tho......and wicked bike racers too.
Xaus and Bayliss were the stars for me........ringing the necks of 240bhp slick shod bikes in the wet........how cool was that....Rossi is Rossi there
is no one better, well there was but sadly they aint here anymore.......Mr Dunlop and Mr Sheene

Yes - it's the black stripes they lay while leaning over that impress me - oh, and picking up the front wheel while they're doing it...
