Grey leader reports - Jurby results

A somewhat over excited Champ has asked me to pass on the results
before I go out.

600 race - 4th
Open race - 7th

As he said, there were some fast boys out there and he's very happy
with those positions.

He didn't say a word about any text messgaes regarding TT entry
though, so no idea if he's taken the bait or worked it out

 

They're good finishes and he's right to be happy.

He might have sussed it because he got me the sim card in exchange for
my original one but I don't know if he bothered to save the number
before he handed the card over.

 

**** me. He's right to be. GO CHAMP! (comes the yell from South America)

 

Nicely done. <waves glass>

 

In message

I wonder if "go Champ" translates into something embarrassing in South
America?

 

Well done that man.

 

If you can pass it back, or if he reads this, well done.

He phoned last night at about 11pm to ask if I'd activated the sim
card.

Knowing that he'd see the posts on here as soon as he got home I felt
I had to come clean about the whole thing and tell him Burnt made me
do it.

Apparently there's a very nice voicemail left from before he knew
who'd left the message. I wonder if I've got the time and the
enthusiasm to transfer it to a bit of web space so people can listen
to it?

 

Oh, yes please.

 

"made me do it".

That's suggested it and when prompted said "yes" I think.

I think you have a duty to.

 

Well done that young man.

Unfortunately it looks like I need to be in Victoria (BC) before
the end of the Manx GP, so no pit-crewing for me this year. :-(

Heheheh. I'd like to listen to that.

 

Indeed - nice report.

 

I went through the first couple and thought "cracking stoppie there,
he was lucky to get away with that".

Then I saw he wasn't.

Congrats on the results.

 

*boggle*

What the hell did he do? Completely miss his braking point, or
something?

Photos IMG_5331.JPG and IMG_5332.JPG show why bikes and morris dancing
don't mix.

 

I know a couple of very nice pubs there, if it's any help.

 

Strangely, he's got his foot down in the first pic - making it look as
if he was shitting himself mightily there preparatory to ditching it.

The two pics airborne are classics, though.

Sounds like a brainfart took place and he sort of blanked the corner,
leading to a hugely 'oshit' moment when it dawned, and the ready
trotting out of Racers Excuse No 4a - 'brakes didn't work'.

Heh. It was utterly amazing how nobody got skittled.
