Anyone wanna join me ?

After a really good year albeit up and down I'm doing what I had planned on doing last winter and retiring from my 4 years club racing. I'd like to say i've enjoyed it but I haven't really as I just haven't been good enough to get the results I wanted. I have however really enjoyed the social side. i'll still be there supporting grib and enjoying the social side.
So thanks for the DD memories and see you all next year :)

Can you watch a race whilst supping beer ?
Does your memory fade so much you can stand there saying how good you were and how much you would have won by ?

If so that's the entry criteria ;)

I'll join your club couchie.
I'll not be on the grid next year, I guess for the same reasons as you... Although i've had a better string of results this year i've not had anywhere near as much fun as last year and not improved my racing. So that's that, said the mayor! I certainly want to be on track with dd at assen in 07 - if not too many regulars object, but we'll see how that pans out.

Will definately be hanging around the dd paddock though, this time with a beer in my hand and talking about all the trophies I won (all two of them) when I were a club racer!

I won't stop racing until I get at least one trophy. I need to be able to go back to France showing off to my mates "guys, I've kicked all those rostbeefs' ass during all those years, look what I bring back..."

I'm sure you'll change your mind at least five times this winter, buy another 3 DD bikes, sell two, strip one down, rebuild it, sell it, and finally buy the fastest one available at the time and turn up at Cadwell!! I look forward to seeing you out there again shortly. :lol:

I was going to retire at the end of this year but having put my first overtaking move on the big Domski I am coming back. :D

I recon you'll be out there, you can't ride like you do unless you know the other riders are trying. You don't want to become a track day worrier like Griff was do you?:lol:

Thanks for the tips on the, neck of goose and Charlie's 1.
