What a stunning weekend. The fastest, maddest, track I've ever touched. The best organisation, the finest weather, the biggest crowds, the loveliest brolly-dolly, the friendliest welcome, the happiest marshalls, the most laughs, the best bunch of barking mad racers you could ever hope to spend a weekend with.

If you didn't go this year then get saving for next as missing it twice would be unforgivable.

Huge thanks to the Dutch Ducati Club for 101 reasons, Paul James for representing the DSC, the Diffey Brothers at Merryprint for lending Chris the powervan (0-50mph < 5.2secs, vmax 102mph), to Chris for showing us the full Aussie White Van Man technique, to Dickie for making me laugh for 72 hours straight, to Paul from CSS for helping me all weekend, and to everyone else who went for making it the brilliant event it was.

Massive respect to both Dom & Phil for two flawless rides. Well deserved wins for both of you and a moment I'm sure you'll never forget.

Cheers,

Ali

Lulling the opposition into a false sense of security???

Fantastic riding, as per usual, Ali. You looked totally in the zone out there, and totally exhilerated afterwards.
