Tony, Thought crosses my mind most days, especially after my recent misfortune, was that down to crap on the road? or the surface? there was several patches of differing tarmac there. Luckily for me though I have some of the best roads within 45 minutes of where I live, and also have Lily to give me a good kick up the arse to convince me to go out and ride. I do think however that maybe I should get another bike for the road, not a sportsbike, maybe a retard who knows. I could easily afford to just do trackdays, but I would have to change my way of thinking and lifestyle to a degree, buy a van, have more time off work etc, etc, and if I was going to do that solely I'd probably ask myself why aren't I racing? What you need is to have a nice biking holiday somewhere, either in the UK (Lake District etc) or Europe, either a WSB/GP round or just a blat to the ring etc with Mav, I'm sure that would swing things around, although I cannot think of anything less appealing than riding in and around London if I am honest.
