      A mate, Rookie, entered his Bantam into the parade lap.
      This is Rook's Chook.

            You better, Pete.
            We had a cracker.
            I lost Simon in the travels at the track on Sunday.
            His Cooley wasn't so mint when I saw it.
            A blown oil seal meant he had painted the left side black.

              I'll certainly do me best! Gotta get to the Island... must get there!

              Ouch on the blown oil seal! Hope he makes it up here in time for the run on Sunday! The way the weather's been he'll get a bath anyway

                    Good grief Simon, are you trying to make it look like my bike?

                    I must say, it's odd seeing a jacket I recognize thrown over the seat of a bike on the other side of the planet.

                      Thanks, I needed that! I thought race days were supposed to be grey and wet? Looks like a great day. You need to go see Johnny.

                        He's intending to Charlie!!,but I think he has set next season as a target.Thanks for the recommendation-I guess that you enjoyed yourself and the next time you come we ARE going to sit in the hedge at Jordans Cross as the Superbikes go past us 6 inches away at 170mph,ya hear-no bottling out this time, oh and you can also feed the donkey as well. if it is of any interest to anyone go to www.doublebandfilms.com to get a dvd of the 1992 NW200 that follows the late great Robbie Dunlop once you have brought up the site click on the dvd icon and you can go from there it costs ?19.99 but they will take paypal this is a small company based here in Northern Ireland so I can't see the production run being very large.great photos Leigh I like the one of the Katana-just goes to show the older bikes can cut it on the race track but it is like old race cars-give Stirling Moss, Fangio etc. 10 minutes and they would be able to drive them but give Alonso, Lewis Hamilton etc. a '50s race car and watch the crashes!

                          was that a little fun poking Charlie?? or was it that I took you at over 100mph down the motorway in the wet hehehe.Here is a photo(copied from a book called "hard roads") now THIS is a wet race
                          if anyone is wondering the arm out isn't some sort of stabilising manouver- he is stopping the race!!

                            Wet race? Nah, this was a wet race..



                            Charlie, Johnny is right, I has me a cunning plan to get there next year.
                            It's the same cunning plan I had to get there this year but without the major holes in it.

                            Johnny, I will sit in the hedges with ya.
