Race Face. 12/14/2008
It was good visiting an old stomping ground. Everything was just as I remembered it. At least all the turns went the same way. Many thanks to Paul for the invite.
I recall a time when I rode 2 strokes in anger. Serious, serious, serious anger. Red mist, banging fairings, elbows in the face, pump fakes, late braking, you name it, I did it. But, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge since then, and I must now admit that although I can wring the scrawny neck of a small 2 stroke, I no longer have the slim and svelte physique that riding a stroker requires. Bloody hell, I couldn’t even fold my legs up enough and squeeze my torso into that miniscule cockpit. And all of you can save the fat jokes. If you haven’t seen me in the last 2 months, there have been some changes to my percentage of body fat.
Still and all, it was nice to get out on the track, and just ride without a care. Always nice to ride fast when someone else is paying for the maintenance and fuel.

Great to you know you’re reducing your percentage of BMI… anyway, 2 stroke? Darn!
Did I read 2 strokes? emmmm
And why the fuck did I not know about this, you fat bastard? Look at you, can’t even get your little legs on the ground!
(Don’t forget this weekend, huh? I’ll SMS you any further details!)
Yeah, you look thinner.
ah, i was invited to have a look see to this event, busy-ness got in the way.
Should’ve gone, we’d finally be able to meet and swap speed stories.
Hmmm, my post is gone ?
