Well John there are Old gits and there are Old gits, now who am I to say who falls into which camp. But yes it it the same Richard Llewellin of Louigi Moto, often found racing a Yellow 748 with a white frame and pedals some useful info on http://www.ducatitrader.co.uk/

Well John you got me, yep the original "old Git" racer.
As for the answers to some of the questions.
If you totally wrote off a Ducati on a track day and walked away, I would probably shake your hand, call you a lucky barsteward and swallow it.
It is a well known fact that Yellow Ducati's are marginaly faster than red ones, so much so that i will have some red ones next year for the novice riders.
And Kev, gulp, I always used to scrub the tyres in during the A race, so I can go fast in the B race, where there was prize money. As for the five seconds a lap, well i was on a yellow bike suppose.

Fair enough, I like your style.

Sounds like a bit of a challenge though doesn't it ink:

Well TP
I've crashed a few myself, seen a lot crashed and rebuilt the crashed ones, but my bikes will all have crash bobbins fitted, so it should be cracks, dents bars, pegs and levers, plus I have a stockpile of secondhand spares and almost self sufficent in fibreglass panelwork. So should keep me going for a few seasons I recon.

Sounds like you've got it sussed!

Good luck!

Natty - ah - you were parked next to me on Monday at Cadwell, didn't know you were part of this crowd or I would have come along and said Hello. Maybe next time....

That's something of an understatement. Last time I saw the stockpile there was enough bits to repair an entire field of crashed bikes....

Rich: Was Natty on yer race bike?? Would love to have day on that soon. Better start selling kidneys...

Cheers,

Ali
