[Moto GP]

About the only track where it might be safe to bet against Rossi.....has gotta be Laguna Seca......only because he's raced only once there.

I think he'll do better in 2006

[Project finally up & running :-)]

After many .... many ..... many months I've finnally got the R1-Z project running

Done around 150 miles since the rebuild

Still a few problems to sort out when the wife lets me off the DIY

This is the reason my website ain't been updated ( links etc )

Fred.

[Just updated my site :-)]

Steady progress on your R1-Z project there Fred

I also like the way that Paul's SDR turned out too

←

Progress on the R1-Z goes as fast as the cash lasts

Paul turned that SDR round in about 3 months

He must be loaded

[Just updated my site :-)]

Wheres the yamclub link then?     

←

I'll do it the next update ! honest

Sometimes I just can't keep up with all the traffic

[Just updated my site :-)]

Just letting all know that I've finally had some time to update my small'ish website

Gallery and the never ending R1-Z project

[what do you do with yours?]

As i live in England and the weather is mostly s**t and I think my '' Old Nail '' is worth more £££$$$$ than I have at the moment if I was to drop it and as I have 2 kids and as the wife has job after job after job on the DIY front lined up for me ................. I only ride it when I have time and must admit try to get out when the sun shines I do get caught in the rain sometimes .... also seem to keep of the roads when the gritters start dumping '' Salt '' everwere ......

I must be one of those '' Fair Weather '' bikers

[First Bike]

Sorry but it was a '' Honda '' for me

[British Motogp 2005]

I'll look out for you on the TV M8

Hope you have a great time

PS .......... What is Kart ...... is it cars

[British Motogp 2005]

Somewhere between 12-1400 miles I reckon.....roundtrip

I feel for you YamaHead

12-1400miles to see ONLY the GP bikes and not even the '' Strokers ''

Don't want to upset you but the GP at Donington is only around 4 miles from my place

You can hear the bikes / cars when events are on from my garden

Not sure about the GP though as I'm there in person sniffing the 2 stroke fumes

All the best .......

[My '' Old Nail'' :-)]

Mitsuo's trip to the UK was fantastic for me & P4LO1 we had a whole week with him showing him many of the sights and sounds of England :wink:

A lot of trust was shown by Mitsuo in us both ........ A few e-mails to him saying get your arse to England and he was soon on the plane :roll:

Can you imagine someone saying the same to you :roll:

We will meet you at the airport :roll:

We will look after you all week :roll:

Its only half way round the world :roll:

Would you not have a little thought that it was a wind up ( I would ) :shock:

The rideouts were great watching the two of them racing away into the distance :oops:

Yes I am about the worlds worst RD 500 rider but I don't plan on dropping the thing :oops:

I still get there in the end with the same stupid grin I had on my face the first time I rode the 500

Selling it :roll: :roll: :roll:

The moggot rises from time to time but then out the garage it comes and ..............

Would you sell this '' Show Winner '' :wink: .............

Fred.

[My '' Old Nail'' :-)]

Just been looking through the gallery there is some wonderfull images ( Even P4LO1 is in on the act ) and I just realised I ain't put a picture of my '' Old Nail '' up :?

Here is a picture taken in the summer by '' Rodger Taylor '' for his wonderfull RD book :wink:

[Ashbourne RD - 04 ( England ) :-)]

I managed to get myself over to the Aircooled RD Rally at Ashbourne on Saturday 10-07-04 and it was fantastic

If you ain't been and you get the chance in 2005 then do it :wink:

Anyway .........

Images of the event have been posted on my site www.rd500ypvs.co.uk
