on the way to the DUCATI factory:P

January: DSC AGM - met lots of people I had previously just conversed with on the boards, including the lovely Jools, KB, MadMav amongst many - and still had time to chase Dibble round the pub garden;)

April - moved house, Southern Counties Ducati meet at Box Hill on a chilly easter Sunday:o

May - monster w/end in nice hotel for 3 nights close to Stratford - lots of mates went too:cool:

June - house warming BBQ, lots of mates round with bikes:D Photo shoot for AK's bike for Streetfighter

June/July/Aug: various pleasant weekends spent out on lunch meets/beaches & lazy afternoons with like minded biking chums from DSC:roll:

July: Sammy Millers run to the New Forest - again with like minded Ducati riders
Dinner with the stars of WSB at Brands Hatch

Aug: Bike safe day with Surrey police & DSC (cheers Webby :D)
Bristol bike show with the monster, lovely hotel overnight.
DSC did Popham too:roll:

Sept: Track day at Rockingham:sing:
Holiday in West Country

Busy year for us all told.
Lost my dear mum at the beginning of the year, had a brush with nasty lumps myself:( now ok.
Bit of sorting of family with 1 brother moving to France for good & daughter moving out to live with Grandpa.
AK managed to collect another bike & got it fettled (from a 'scrap condidtion' in time for Rockingham.
Now he needs to flog at least one, so we have room to get a 748/9** for trackdays;)

We are both looking forwards to a 'organising/spannering' season with mate in Bemsee:D and doing some longer (overnight?)rideouts to the Desmo Due meetings too.

Anyone have a guess who the guy in the middle (facing the camera with the glasses) is? It's not Terry Wogan...

Christmas eve '03 - end March '04 - went round the world! Trip included driving half way across Canada, all sort of stuff in New York, riding a Harley across the Golden Gate Bridge, climbing the Pyramid of the Sun in Mexico, diving in Cozumel, making my way up to Machu Picchu, bungy jumping and paragliding in NZ, visiting Bondi Beach in Australia, and diving again in Phuket.

April - moved to London to live here for the first time in my life.

October - got my dream job and my first ever Ducati!

November - visited Ireland for the first time and discovered I'm going to be a dad!

Next year will be committed to making the most of my lovely S4R. Why did I buy it at the beginning of winter?!?!?!

I guess the year started with the two of us in Lake Tahoe boarding

The I buggered off to Banff with a few mates...
