| The title of Master of the Muppets isn't dished out for just any old trackday lowside ya know but I reckon for the special effort you made on what must be one of the shortest test rides ever attempted at Cadwell, did you actually get on to the track upright?, wins you that honour  You join some of the DSC Muppetry greats like WJB for dumping one of Ducati Uk's bikes at mallory, not to mention at least one unmentionable incident, that I'm not going to ...er...mention Monty is a multiple title holder and according to the search i've just done the last know holder of the DSC Muppet award. Just doing a search on muppet on the site was a great nostalgia trip  It would be great to bring back the award and it's avatar. Yep, IIRC the award could only be claimed for trackday spills, racing or road spills were disallowed muppetry. Oh how I laugh  now about my own feeble attempt at muppetry, not putting my old 996 on its sidestand properly in the pitlane at the end of trackday at Donington, walking away only to hear the priceless sound of metal and plastic crunching as it fell over. Then stupidly firing it up only for the damaged clutch cover to whip a clutch post off, ...........aaahhh what fun Ray Last edited by Ray : 24-Sep-2009 at 22:24.  |

I'm clearly not that clever! I'm hoping one of two irons in the fire will come off for me but it's been a very frustrating time being in IT lately. There are recruiters who are still receiving 100s of CVs within an hour of posting a job on jobserve.com so it's a VERY competitive market and I have very niche skills in one area. I've branched into a more generic area but that also means I'm competing with a lot more people, despite the increase in available roles, and it's difficult to demonstrate experience to recruiters who know nothing of what they speak ... The irony is the market in Australia is strong... That aside, we've reached a new year and I sincerely doubt anyone has performed muppetry of the order required to take the Ducati Sporting Club 2009 Muppet of the Year title off me. But I'm wondering who the current DSC Muppet is? I know for a fact that some club members have crashed on track days since my spectacular effort in June last year so don't be shy, come claim your prestigious title!

Oi! Bugger off! That only made my effort untouchable in 2009  Skids is the current DSC Muppet until someone with a more recent track day off claims it. I owe you £5 for The Ashes too, goddamn it. You'll have to wait for that one til I see you! |
