| I'm planning to take my 900SS to this so my DD bike will be available all day if anyone wants to have a go, subject to a couple of conditions.
1) The bike will be stored at Antonye's for the year so transportation to and from there will have to be organised by and split amongst the people that want to have a go. If Antonye wants to take both of his bikes (and a 3-bike van is not available) then someone will have to drive to and from his place - he's already doing me a big favour and I don't want to put him out.
2) No need to risk your own pride and joy in my hands (unless you REALLY need my expert opinion on your bike!) - this is a unilateral offer. You bend it, you fix it before the next race. I'm going to be sensible about it - if it relates to something that was going to break anyway then I'm not going to hold you responsible, and I'm not going to ask for a carbon termi to replace a broken alloy can. Just want to make sure I will be able to continue racing.
3) Offer only open to people who have never raced before - you don't have to be planning to do DD next year (yet!). I'm not going to check with the ACU, but I will post the provisional list of riders and will yank anyone that any member tells has raced before. The only exception to this rule is Nelly.
Before you all jump at this fantastic opportunity, it's only fair to warn you that it will not be the best DD example out there. It is being prepped by Nelly, but there's only so much that even he can do on the budget I have given him.
If you have read this far and are still interested then drop me a u2u.
cheers, Chi  |
