You got it. Might have to deal with Big Ray on his oily Triumph though.
Just done 4 hours on the road no problem mate. You need to read the link on bum cream.

I''ll ignore that, just go to www.triumph.co.uk to see how the boys from Hinkley are doing. Or get the current Motorcycle News for the super naked group test when the Speed Triple wins again. Well Triumph did say on their website that it wins group tests just by turning up. Absolutely , without a doubt, the best streetfighter that money can buy. |

It's tactical this Elaina. If I ask the wife if she wants to go out for a pub lunch, she'll rush and get her coat and then by some bizarre coincidence a cycle race comes past. What do you know |

According to the OS map there is a pub in Packington which looks like it is on the circuit, not sure if it does food though

By 'Ox' I take it you mean 'Digby' - the biggest cyclist in the world !! Oh, and he loves people calling him it

So here your chance to win a pair of Tifosi Slip Sunglasses in white (RRP£42.99).
For the best pic from the Race, doesnt have to be just of the race. Pics (candid) of the helpers supporters are also welcome.
Email them to me and Ill put them up on the Gallery for the masses to decide which picture wins.

Just a quick few words before tomorrow.Everything in place,all corners swept,roads clear,cattle grids covered.For any of the riders who have not ridden here before,the first time through the farm is neutralised,so please have a good look round.
For race followers,a good pair of binoculars would be handy as you can see quite a few parts of the course from some vantage points.
Refreshments will be available at race HQ and in the Farm Shops cafe,in fact please take the opportunity to have a look round the shop its very good.
See you all tomorrow,I hope. |
