Hello, Anyone out there? - 2

That's pretty cool Corny. That Geert Timmer corner sounds like turn one (Doohan corner) and Siberia at Phillip Island where you can see a good half to two-thirds of the circuit. Makes for good viewing value.

I know it's been said before a few times but I just want to talk up how good this forum is. I've been reading from a couple lately and the amount of tripe spouted on them is incredible. So much brainless opinion posed as fact. Even when opinions on here are biased, there's at least some thought and effort goes into explaining them and arguments are generally kept to the topic at hand - personal insults are thankfully rare.
So keep up the good work guys! :up:

Good to see everyone around and some very good posts and threads in here as always.

As I'm sure you're all aware, F1's having one of it's fairly regular meltdowns, so we all need to be ready for bike racing to claim top spot in world motorsport in the near future :)

Hope you all enjoy World Superbikes at Misano, and Snetterton for the BSB fans.

Indeed they are making a laugh from Formula one.. Even here in The Netherlands there is not as much politics going

BTW, can't wait till next friday morning 6 o'clock :D :D :D Just hope it'll be another cracking race

okay here are some pics for STU69. Had a boring evening, so I had the time to scan the folder from this year's TT :D

This is the map of the TT-campings. I'm always at number 14

If you want to have a good rest, then you should not go to the campings lying on the road between number 18 and 22. This is the road people take between the circuit and the city, so sure you will hear a lot of drunken people and burning bikes in your trying-to-sleep! I always sleep at number 14, that's one of the little normal campings you have on the road. If you want to have a laugh and see some freaky things, go to campings number 15, 17, 18, 19 and 20.. If needed more help on the campings, ask me please

This is the time table for this year's TT of Assen.

The circuit and it's prices. Notice that the grandstands: Hoofdtribune, Winterdijk, Geert-Timmer and Strubben are sold out, that's why the prices of that are not on. If you have any questions, put them here and I will tell you them

Oh, yeah and BTW, this is what you see from the Winterdijk grandstand: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzodO7Magi8 made on my visit of this year's WSBK race

I have put the pictures in small size, here they are in big seize if you're not able to read it

Sounds like a good way to do it Corny, camp close enough to enjoy all the craziness but just far enough away to get some sleep. I hope it's dry for you. Should be a ripping weekend.

Thankyou :D

Weather forecast is very good so far, just hope it'll stay like that

Guys, just an advanced warning that I'll be away from next Thursday until the following Monday/Tuesday at Glastonbury Festival, so won't be on hand to do any moderating-y stuff or have the League and Pickems points up immediately.

I hope to catch up on the races (Assen MotoGP, Donington WSB) and do the points on Tuesday 30th June.

The next day I'm off to France, to compete in a 24-hour kart race at Le Mans (!), so again will be away til Tuesday July 7th. I'll then catch up with the MotoGP race from Laguna and do those League & Pickems points a little later than usual.

You swine Pat :p : My mates are going to Glasto but I simply can't afford that kind of outlay (especially as we're currently putting a set of Dellorto 40s on our sprint car which is turning out to be fairly expensive). MInd you I'm not sure I could cope with having to choose between Blur and Prodigy on Sunday so probably best I stay at home and watch it on the telly, just hoping that Neil Young plays a decent set.

Police officer on radar duty says to speeding motorcyclist...............
"50 over the limit........I've been waiting for a maniac like you all day!"

Rider's response......... "Sorry you had to wait but I got here as quickly as I could."

BEER BY SEVEN YEAR OLDS

A handful of 7 year old children were asked 'What they thought of beer'. Some interesting responses, but the last one is especially touching.

'I think beer must be good. My dad says the more beer he drinks the prettier my mum gets.'
--Tim, 7 years old

'Beer makes my dad sleepy and we get to watch what we want on television when he is asleep, so beer is nice. '
--Mellanie, 7 years old

'My Mum and Dad both like beer. My Mum gets funny when she drinks it and takes her top off at parties, but Dad doesn't think this is very funny.'
--Grady, 7 years old

''My Mum and Dad talk funny when they drink beer and the more they drink the more they give kisses to each other, which is a good thing.'
--Toby, 7 years old

'My Dad gets funny on beer. He is funny. He also wets his pants sometimes, so he shouldn't have too much.
--Sarah, 7 years old

'My Dad loves beer. The more he drinks, the better he dances. One time he danced right into the pool.'
--Lilly, 7 years old

'I don't like beer very much. Every time Dad drinks it, he burns the sausages on the barbecue and they taste disgusting.'
--Ethan, 7 years old

'I give Dad's beer to the dog and he goes to sleep.'
--Shirley, 7 years old

AND THE BEST RESPONSE

'My Mum drinks beer and she says silly things and picks on my father. Whenever she drinks beer she yells at Dad and tells him to go bury his bone down the street again, but that doesn't make any sense.'
--Jack, 7 years
