My 2011 Desmo Due racing #51 Ok, i know it hasn't started yet but in only 12 days i will be back on the grid along with some old faces and hopefully some new ones ready to do it all again, where has all the time gone it only seems like a few days ago we were all at a wet and soggy Cadwell for the last race of 2010, Changes to the bike: well not allot really as i am sure the bike was going well enough last year and any problems were down to the rider, i have decided to get rid of the old 748 fairings and replace them with 848 ones, they seem to suit the bike better. Testing: well if you can call two days at a rain lashed Cadwell testing then that's been it really, i like the wet and hope it rains at all meetings this year  the bike seems fine and i have no complaints, the new control tyre did seem better in the wet than last years, or it could have been wishful thinking, will just have to wait and see.Team: Yet again i will have Chris.P sister in law Cathy, and partner Julie along for moral support, pit boarding, spanering tea making etc etc, as they did such a great job last year, this year i have splashed out on team T-shirts for them, ok i am tight bugger the T-shirts cost £3.00 quid each and the printing was done free courtesy of my brothers work place Sponsorship: My thanks go to Italia Moto of Lincoln for once again sponsoring me this year, Goals: Now this is a good one, firstly my goal is to finish all races,this will be achieved by avoiding fallen bikes laying on the track (Snetterton) misjudging an undertake and running up the back tyre of the bike in front (Silverstone) other than that its to go out there have fun and enjoy myself. Looking forward to seeing all you guys on the 12th, heres hoping this year will be as much fun as last year. | |
