    I'm back! what can I say....one of the best weekends of my life. I don't think I've ever laughed so much, drank so much, seen so many bikes or been that impressed by rider/driver skill in all my life.

    192mph down Sulby Straight they were going. literally 10' in front of our toes, it makes the hairs on your whole body stick up (because you know if they f*ck up you're dead!). the sound of them coming up the road flat out is literally spine tingling, then WOOOOSH!, they come past in the blink of an eye.

    Riding round the course, even at sedate speeds was great, and the atmosphere of the place was simply phenominal.

    absolutely fanf*ckingtastic, definitely going again next year. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

    Sounds excellent... i'll have to give it a try sometime.

    Le Mans is well worth a trip (and it's addictive)... we're (Daz, Me and a few others) off agian next year. Only down side woth Le Mans is that it's on the same time as the national day at Curborough [:^(].

    Never been to a GP as yet, but I'll lose my F1 cherry in September at the Chinese GP [:D]

    nope, I didn't take my camera. I had no room in my bag for it, and I didn't want it getting damaged or lost.

    I thoroughly reccomend you buy the DVD when it's out though, you won't believe the on bike footage, it's truly scary how fast they are going. look out for us on the left as they come onto Sulby Straight, just before the right hand bent over Sulby Bridge.

    Yep, knew that was coming :clap:

    Dont go to the car GP as its boring as sin and fking expensive. Bike GP is at Donnington at the end of July and you can get tickets (inc camping) for Fri, Sat and Sun for 60. The bikes are simply amazing at this.

    Been looking on Bike trader yet?

    The GP is always on at Donny. Your maybe thinking of the World Superbikes. I would recommend it to any biker that likes drinking. The noise these things make is fantastic.

    990cc V5's, V4's in line 4's, triples etc revving to 18000rpm with no silencers!!!!!!!!
