ready for tomorrow ????
I can't wait.... I didn't ride since Cadwell.

I fitted the 620 with an old and ugly set of fairings, trying to keep the black one (you know the one I destroyed at Cadwell) good enough for the next meeting.

Hoping my bike will be allowed on the track... hoping I don't break anything (on me or the bike)... hoping to have another great day of fun

Am I ready? Nup - no baffles if I get knocked back, although I really don't think I will.

Had some sprockets arrive this morning so they are on the dining table next to me. Need fuel for the van and fill up the jerry can - need to check that I've got the right tools and torque settings so I cn swap the rear sprocket around etc ...

And I've got some documentation to do for work!

No! Sick as a parrot (vachement mal!), and no rear shock at the moment. One may turn up at CC tomorrow, but given the state of my head I think I'm better watching!

I do not hope... I don't want to lose my rear shock...





I know I know... I'm useless
I hope you'll be better tomorrow to play with us Ali...

I gotta say... Tonio makes me laugh

What's more worrying is that I think we have the same sense of humour, even if he can't explain it properly

Nice one Tonio

...and pull ya bloody finger out Ali, you better be suffering properly, or I'm strapping you to that bike and sending you out

See you all tomorrow

Believe me, this is podium-level-suffering (at least for a bloke with a cold!), but I will be there tomorrow even if I have to gaff tape my eyelids open!

Rally, thanks fo the offer but the company in question have sworn blind (for the third time) that it'll be there tomorrow. If it's not then I'll just have to run with my completely knackered standard one and take it easy. Not ideal when you've only got one day to test! (I retract that if you happen to have an ohlins DU235 with a spring suitable for a 90kg bloke! Give it 'ere!)

Cheers,

Ali
