For one reason or another I've pretty well not looked at this board for almost a year now but for some inexplicabe reason I started browsing again in the last week or so.

I have to say after getting over the initial indignation and surprise (not!) that ol' Vman had been banned I was soon once again consumed by the jolly old DSC banter.

In fact as I sit here and type this I have beside me the second reminder of my DSC membership renewal which to be honest I had more than half a mind to consign to the bin, but I have to say that the last few visits have convinced me to renew for another year and as of this moment in time my cheque is winging its way to Lizzie.

Anyway now that I've got that sentimenatl stuff out of the way I hoped perhaps I could draw on the collective brain-power of the DSC over two issues:

1. I'm looking to replace my 5yearold Arai Quantum F with a Tour-X model. Does anyone have any experience of one and know best price/place to buy one? 'BikersBargains web-site has them at a pretty attractive £239.99. Has anyone used this site and are they good/reliable?

2. I'm going to be in U.S. for most of July, California to be specific. Thinking about going to MotoGP at Laguna Seca. Has anyone here been and can give some pointers on the do's and dont's, etc, etc?

Cheers
