  1. Fucking *hell*!

    I've just seen McGuinness's practice times.

    Average from the start line to Ramsay hairpin: 142.473mph.

    Boggle me sideways.

    I have already made the greatest contribution to the fight against climate
    change that I can make: I have decided not to breed. Now quit bugging me and
    go and talk to the Catholics.

    Over 130MPH lap on the 2nd lap,

    This is what he looked like coming into Ballacraine on that lap (after I
    got stung).

    Its a not a great photo, but you get the idea, bear in mind he was
    absolutly flying in this one.

    Quite.

    I've been looking at the times too, and thinking things like "I can
    beat him", and "I could prolly do that", and wondering where I might
    have been placed.

    <sigh>

    I thought I'd adjusted to not racing anymore, but the last couple of
    days riding like a **** on the 10R has made me think I'd really like
    to ride on closed roads again.

    <sigh>

    Well quite.
    Or different attachments.
    A not insignificant tariff

    Naay. F is a rather nice catch and another Trophy on the shelf won't
    wipe his arse in 20 years time when he is all decrepit and smells of
    wee.
