Whoop whoop, fame and fortune awaits you young man, don't forget us lowly mortals whilst your soaring high.

That'll be the second reference to the site in the mag, (make sure you do or Stig'll book ya)

By the way they also have a Facebook page, might be worth you posting a pic there as well.

Hi all,

sorry i havnt filled you in an all the gosip,

have been up n down to london as my dad has the big 'C'

its in his throat and stomach but hasnt spread anywhere else we hope,

he's lookin thin and has lost his hair, but a small price to pay for treatment

that will cure him,

anyway - on a lighter note the photo shoot was brill, we spent the morning

on an industrial estate taking pics, then rode out to the twisties for some

action pics,

the exup1000 stickers went on the screen and stood out well - i wanted

to put more on but was fitting the first ones when they turned up

so didnt get the ones on the seat unit like i wanted to,

they loved the bike '' i hope ''

it still needs a bit of fine finishing and tidying up but it done the job,

its my birthday tomorrow and the wife got me a tracknight at knockhill

which i'm just back from - the bike was faultless - did 3 x 20 min sessions

and kept up with everything out there

in the pits a guy on a 98 R1 said he was following me and was faster but

just not quite enough to put a pass on me, his data logger recorded a

respectable low 1m 04s high 1m01s laps

so i was chuffed to bits - also not bad considering it was my first time there

Best wishes to your dad, birthday wishes to you, and what issue is the bike gonna be in?

Nowt wrong with getting older.

With age comes experience, cheaper insurance, arthritis, poor eyesight, and according to the tv erectile dysfunction .................hang on, this is supposed to be a list of positives.
