    This imponderable and more from the guru of all things MC chassis related.
    Found this in my inbox today...

    Rgds,

    Tony Foale will be giving 1 or 2 or his two day motorcycle
    dynamics seminars in Australia during November. Formally from
    SA and NSW he has lived in Europe since 1971 and this will be
    his first trip back home since then. The main reason for the trip is
    to do some work with Ian Drysdale (of Drysdale V8 fame) in
    Melbourne. Many people in Australia have asked over the past few
    years for seminars down under and so he is using this opportunity
    to do just that.

    These seminars started in 2003 in the USA. Since then there have
    been many public events as well as in-house corporate seminars
    for companies like Michelin France, Yamaha Racing USA, Polaris
    Industries and others. Their success has largely been due to the
    fact that they are designed to appeal to people from widely differing
    technical backgrounds, from average enthusiasts and racers,
    through race and suspension technicians to engineers.

    The plan is to do one each in Sydney and Melbourne if there is
    enough interest. Otherwise there will be a single one, located
    according to the majority preference. If you are interested please
    email to for more details, indicating preferred
    location and whether a week day or weekend date would suit
    better. More details and list of typical topics can be found at
    www.tonyfoale.com Dates are not settled yet but will not conflict
    with either the SBK champs at Eastern Creek nor the historic
    champs at MacNamara park. In fact Tony hopes to race at
    MacNamara park if some kind soul offers to lend a bike.
