I am very tempted......have to see what the season brings. If it's as good as last year, might have to do it...

...Yer bugga! Now you're doing it to me!!!!!
...Heh-heh... :-:

...It was only a matter of time... sp1ttt3

Catalunya (5 days + 6 days touring) and Misano (5 days + 6 days touring) will be biking trips. :yo:

For Spain we'll ride through France but we're not decided yet on the route back. Italy will be through Switzerland, same as last year
(but not as hectic...so much to do... so little time...)
:lick: then back via southern France and the Le Route Napoleon.

So...two weeks off work's not too much to ask for each trip, is it...?! p0pc0rn41

Plus the time off for Assen, I'm in the wrong job.

I know a very nice chambre d'hote right on the Route Napolean, you'd both love it.

If I decided to go it would have to be a mad dash there and back.

We'll see.

Cheers, Jon. Sent them an enquiry but unfortunately they're no longer accepting bookings because they've decided to sell the place.

It looked absolutely perfect, too! :cry:

Bugga! Sorry about that Eric

I knew Christine wanted to be near her daughter in Annecy but never thought they'd sell.

Shame, wanted to go back there again meself. No doubt someone will buy it and carry the business on, but her home cooked breakie will take some beating

Tis a shame that lads.. from the pics that Jon sent me it looked 'perfect'

I usually do Saturday Qualli at Donni and watch the race at home.. usual Donnington reasons .. theyve even got the qualli off to a tee nowdays lol it costs you as much to watch the quali on Saturday as it did to watch the race 4 yrs ago :tosser::bang:

I will still go on the Saturday tho so can meet up if anyone else is there w;;v

Given Maxs recent history, I can't see him mounting a serious challenge...Toseland just doesn't seem to have enough mental strength...Can't see Corser doing much...So, Bayliss again then?
Jon, darlin'.. :k ...Exactly what were you drinking when you wrote this little lot, M8? :p p0pc0rn41

Oh, DA??<o =""></o>

<o =""></o>Not only is there something wrong with your eyes, but now also your ears?<o =""></o>

<o =""></o>That fluttering was the unmistakeable sound of Valentina?s season disappearing on the warm Spanish breeze?.

:violin:<o =""></o>

<o =""></o>As he sits in his new (and no doubt dented) BMW he can contemplate these facts?.<o =""></o>

<o =""></o>2006 Official Test?? winner? Colin Edwards who went on to finish a glorious seventh in the championship<o =""></o>

:eek:

<o =""></o>2005 Official Test??.winner? Sete Gibernau who went on to finish an equally glorious seventh?

:eek:

Danni on the other hand not only knew these facts, and appreciated that you should never tempt Lady Luck, but he also realised on day one there?d be no point in winning that car as?















<o =""></o>His feet were never going to reach the pedals?..

man8um

...Vale knows a-a-all about the number "seven"...That's how many championships (World-type) he's won... :yo:

...It'll be "Eight for 2008" soon Mate (see how I did that?)... :p

hehe anyway ... did anyone else notice the angle of lean they were getting and the actual corner speed they were carrying... I know everyone saying to ride them like a 250 ... but I aint never seen a 250 with 'THAT' much corner speed and lean angle .. :eek::bow::bow:

to have that much faith in a tyre is not natural .. cant wait till they are going through the turns 3 abreast :-:


Edit: with Valerie holding up the rear.. naturally :p

... It'll look stunning when we get to see it in reality, rather than on the TV screen... :yo:

..I feel compelled to add, though, that I find your transposition of Valentino's name into the feminine "Valerie" to be in rather poor taste and singularly lacking in humour, David. :t

...Heaven knows where you picked up such a reprehensible and so obviously disrespectful mode of self-expression... p0pc0rn41
